About
I am a clinical herbalist and teacher here to guide and connect you with the healing power of plants.
I offer clinical herbalism sessions, craft plant remedies, lead classes, consult on medicinal herb gardens, and speak to various groups about the medicine of the plants all around us.
In my clinical practice, areas of expertise and interest include:
women’s health, including hormonal health and fertility
acute and chronic injuries, especially for dancers, athletes, and active individuals
healthy aging, helping people navigate the physical and emotional shifts in life
digestive system health
I am passionate about building strong and trusting partnerships with my clients and students; relationships that support your agency and the fullness of who you are.
My practice and teaching has been shaped by many wonderful teachers, including Natalie Hammerquist, Asia Suler, Laura Ash and the faculty at Land of Verse.
I am grateful to my dance and yoga teachers, who have walked beside me since I was 6 years old.
I love tending a little urban medicinal plant sanctuary in the heart of Seattle, where I live with my husband and daughter.
I am a semi-retired professional dancer and choreographer, and completed both an MFA and BFA in Modern Dance. I have been teaching yoga and dance for 20 years, come take a class with me!
Hildegard
Together with my husband, I owned and operated Hildegard Ferments & Botanicals from 2022-2025. A small brewery and apothecary crafting specialty beers and remedies with a deep reverence for the seasons and the land.
Our creations were an ode to simplicity, depth, and the magic that happens when honest, local ingredients are allowed to transform.
The brewery has closed but our space in Ballard continues to be a classroom for classes and workshops.
