The Gutsy Herbalist
HERBS. NUTRITION. INTUITION.HEALING
Working one-on-one with clients, I like to ask, "How can I support you?" and create a safe, cozy container for your healing journey. Wherever you are, I'm here with you every step of the way.
Navigating your health can feel like being lost deep in the middle of the woods- overwhelming choices on what herbs are safe, drawers of supplements, doctors, and Google with conflicting advice- meanwhile, you want to feel better but don't know where or how to start. That's where I step in. In my coaching practice, I like to think of myself as your personal hiking guide; I'm here to reorient your map, explain the trail, give you options, and point you in the right direction so you feel like you can confidently get back on the path...from there, you blossom into your own healing guide.
There is no "one size fits all" when doing one-on-one work. It all depends on what your body needs.
Maybe you already know all the right things to do but need someone to hold you accountable for a session or two (been there).
Maybe you have been to several docs only to be pushed back out the door with more pills and no answers and looking to get to the bottom of your health.
Perhaps you are completely new to wholistic and intuitive living and looking for guidance on where to begin- in that case, we can work together for several months to set your foundations, develop a plan that works for your unique body and lifestyle, address what is holding you back from healing so you feel vibrant, alive and in the driver's seat of your health.
Wherever you are on your journey, working one-on-one together can be a beautiful and nurturing experience. This work allows us to look at an in-depth level of how you can live the most alive version of yourself.
If you are serious about taking steps towards your health, and looking for a nurturing and informative space then this is for you!

The method to the madness...and a bit more info if you're curious.
If you only need a one or two session "pick me up" we can part ways there; sometimes you may need a bit of accountability to get realigned.However, if you are "more green" to healing we may need several months to set the foundations and allow the body to reset. We will check in regularly depending on your needs and make changes accordingly until you feel you are in the driver's seat of your health. If something still feels off after we've addressed the foundations, or you know there is something deeper going on, we can then delve into labs to gain more clarity.
Wherever you are- the plan is tailored to you.
Why I don't start with labs first...(unless you really want them, who am I to stop you on your journey?)
First and foremost, labs can be costly and I don't want you dumping a bunch of money if you haven't FIRST addressed the foundations, capisce? When you begin implementing lifestyle changes, exercise, proper sleep, QUALITY nutrient-dense food, hydration, and herbal allies, most of the time your body naturally falls back into homeostasis and will self-heal...no labs needed.
However, if you have done all the things, still have the lingering feeling that something isn't right, or enjoy seeing it on paper, then we will dive right into the data and labs.
Working one-on-one means that you gain access to everything I have learned throughout my own journey of nursing, personal healing, herbal medicine, functional nutrition programs, therapy, yoga, and much much more to streamline your journey. You will learn what foods give you energy and what tanks you, how to stick to lifestyle changes that fill up your cup, what herbs work with your unique constitution, and most importantly you'll learn to go within and discern what exactly your body is asking for at all times. You are back in the driver's seat to your health and relying on your intuition. This looks like sustainable energy, vibrancy in your eyes, a relaxed sense of being, clarity of mind, and self-trust.
FAQ's
Q: What's the Timeline like?
A:Truly this depends on your needs, where you are starting from, and your own determination. Some may need one session - think of writing a final draft essay and having someone look at it, just to see if there are any spots we can finesse your health a bit. Others may need several months if this is their first time doing this kind of work to really allow the physical and mental changes to unfold. It is all unique.
Q: What is the cost?
A: Initial sessions/Lab Review Sessions -$200
Follow up sessions - $150
Sessions can be anywhere from 60-90 minutes and that does not include chart reviews, lab interpretations, blending herbs, and curating tailored recommendations for your needs. This is not template or protocol medicine.
*Lab cost and supplement cost are not included*
Please note.... I never want cost to be a barrier. Please do not hesitate to reach out regarding sliding scale options for you or or your family. Health should be available to us all and I mean that from the bottom of my heart.
Q: What if I still have other questions?
A: Drop me a line, I'd love to chat OR message me to set up a free 20 minute discovery call to see if this is right for you.

Curious about how functional medicine is different?
My intake is almost 20 pages. Now before you get overwhelmed, hear me out, I want to know your ENTIRE health story. Where it began, how all of the body systems are responding, and how your lifestyle, stress, and nutrition are impacting your body. This is real root cause work and designed to not just "band-aid" your problems but really address and transform them.
This isn't a one-page doc visit intake form that gets glanced over and tossed aside with the offerings of more pills. This is how we get down to the WHY and create lasting change.
