Plant medicine for
cultivating resilience.

Hi, I’m Ember. I have been in clinical practice since 2014. I teach three herbal programs both in person and online for beginner to advanced herbalists and clinicians. I tend perennial herb gardens, run a herbal clinic, and make high quality herbal medicines for my clients. I am passionate about uncovering the complex root causes of illness & disease, and have been active in struggles for liberation for the past 20 years.

I have offerings for:

  • Individuals seeking one-on-one support with your health concerns

  • Herb enthusiasts to grow your knowledge and experience of herbalism

  • Students of herbalism, from the beginning to advanced level, to deepen your knowledge and skill on your path to becoming a herbalist

  • Clinical herbalists who seek informed, clinical experience based continuing education and support
