Work with me
Schedule a free 15-minute intro call
Schedule a free intro call above to learn what an herbal consulatation is all about and whether or not we might be a good fit for each other! For most people, this is your first time meeting with a clinical herbalist. We talk through what you’re looking for and see if I might be able to support you.
None of the above times work? Send me a message at mkatzchristy (at) gmail.com with your availability, and I’ll see what I’m able to do!
What does an herbal consult look like?
We meet for 1.5-2 hours for a thorough conversation in which I listen to your story and we try to uncover which patterns might be at the root of your symptoms. Afterwards, I’ll do some research and then send you detailed recommendations including herbal formulas, dietary advice (optional!) and other guidance (blood tests, movement/massage, referrals to other practitioners). Once we settle on a protocol that you feel excited about, I’ll send the formulas to an apothecary to be filled, and you’ll receive your herbs in the mail.
How often do we check in?
As often as feels productive to you! Often, it is hard for us to track our own process – I have clients who forget they used to have headaches and are very pleased when we meet and they realize that their headaches are gone! For most people, I recommend meeting once every six weeks for at least three visits and then every 3-6 months afterwards. However, some chronic issues can be like onions – once we peel one layer away we discover another layer to care for – and can require more care and attention.
Appointment Pricing
I offer three tiers of pricing for consultations:
- Sustainer Rate – When clients pay the sustainer rate, it directly funds pay-what-you-can consultations for those who cannot afford the base rate.
- Base Rate – This is the price that compensates me for my time.
- Pay-What-You-Can – If you cannot pay the base rate, you can let me know what price you can pay. When there are funds available from clients paying the sustainer rate, I will reach out to you to schedule an appointment.
The consultations are the same, regardless of the price! Not sure how much to pay? Check out this handy graphic.

Cost of herbs
Herbs can cost anywhere from $50-$200 per month. I can support you in using foods and lower-cost remedies to work within your budget, but the herbs are not sliding scale. I primarily use Heart Hand Lands apothecary for my clients’ formulas because they source quality, sustainable, relatively affordable herbs.
