Herbal Care + Education in Maine, Boston, and Online
Herbal Care:
Want to address the root imbalances that are leading to dysregulation in your body systems?
I can partner with you to understand your body from an herbal perspective – one that integrates scientific research with traditional botanical uses – in order to promote long-term healing.
While my practice centers gut health, I follow my clients’ lead and we work on what is showing up. Other common concerns of my clients include:
- endocrine and energy: diabetes, sugar cravings, fatigue
- nervous system regulation: depression, anxiety, grief, sleep
- trans care: support alongside gender-affirming hormone therapy, surgical before + after care
- immune regulation: allergies, asthma, frequent infections
- skin: eczema, acne
- hormonal regulation: menstrual cycle regulation, fertility support, cramps, PMS
- and much, much more!
