I am a Medical Herbalist with a focus on hormone health, nervous system regulation, and stress reduction. I use Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in my diagnosis including tongue and constitution analysis in all of my consultations. I offer one to one consultations both online and in-person for adults and children at my herbal apothecary in Rodney Street, Liverpool. I also run herb walks and workshops on Hormone Health, Medicine Making, tea blending and Junior Herbalist Club. I am a fully qualified acupuncturist which I incorporate in my practice if desired.
I am a Junior Herbalist Club leader, offering accredited herbalism courses to children.
My mission is to connect people and plants and to continue to teach the ways the body can heal from chronic illness and imbalances with the medicine that humanity has used since the beginning of time along with lifestyle and nutritional changes. I do this by empowering you to make better choices and providing a personalised health plan based around your individual health goals.
My journey: I chose the herbal path due to my own health imbalances, frustration of not feeling heard and finding that the pharmaceuticals I was prescribed were not getting to the root cause. I started to look for answers from alternative health professionals and take my health into my own hands. It was through herbal medicine that I was able to get my health back of track alongside nutrition and lifestyle changes. I then trained to be a Medical herbalist because I wanted to learn more about the science of how plants can heal. At Lincoln University Centre I completed 500 clinical hours in a herbal training clinic. During this time I got to consult patient's who had chronic illness from gynaecological disorders to cancer and witness the power of the plants through each individuals progress.
My consultations are 2 hours long to give us time to find your imbalances. Holistic health is at the core of what I do so this involves a full profile of nutrition, lifestyle, emotional health, relationships etc so that I can deliver the most suitable treatment plan to my clients.
I am a member of the National Institute of Medical Herbalist's (NIMH), the UK's leading body of herbal practitioners.
