botanical balance sessions
Curious how herbal medicine can support your health?
Our one-on-one botanical balance sessions take place with clinical herbalist, Kate. Your time together includes an in-depth chat discussing your health history and current health goals, your daily life and routines, and any diagnoses, medications, or recent laboratory results. Kate draws on her extensive knowledge of herbs, nutrition and lifestyle habits to create your personalized herbal protocol. From there, herbal formulas are filled at our partner apothecary and shipped directly to you.
Herbal medicine can support many health conditions. Examples include: digestive complaints, adrenal fatigue, stress and anxiety, sleep, hormone imbalances, cardiovascular conditions and much more. If you have any questions prior to scheduling, please reach out!
Sessions take place online.
Once your session is scheduled, a private Zoom link will be sent to you prior to your appointment.

*Herbal formulas filled by our partner apothecary are an additional cost to the pricing listed above.
A few key points:
We work in tandem with recommendations made by your primary care physician or specialist.
All recommended herbal formulas will be vetted to ensure there are no interactions with medications or supplements you are currently taking.
Our focus is on tailoring herbal protocols to your specific needs and what works best for your life. However, clients are expected to buy-in to the process of changing their behaviors and patterns in order to work toward optimizing their health and well-being. Your herbalist is your ally throughout this process and is always on your side. If something isn’t working for you, we will revise, brainstorm a new method, or develop a new protocol in order to co-create a solution. We are a team.

frequently asked questions
-
Prior to your initial botanical balance session, you will be emailed a health intake form to fill out. This provides relevant health information to your herbalist so that she can be as prepared as possible for your consultation.
During your session, expect to talk about any primary health concerns you might have. These could include digestive issues, heart and cardiovascular health, pregnancy support, sleep and skin support, mental health and anxiety, immune and energy support, respiratory issues, and so much more. Herbs can be supportive for a myriad of health concerns, so there is no limit to what we can cover. In addition to your primary concerns, your herbalist will ask into diet, daily routine, and the various systems of the body in order to ensure there might not be additional areas that could use herbal support.
You should feel relaxed during the appointment, having snacks, a cup of tea or anything else that makes you feel at ease. We ask that you schedule your appointments at a time when you will have minimal external distractions are in a safe space to openly share.
You will not receive your protocol or recommendations at the end of the initial consultation. Your herbalist takes an additional 1-2 hours after your appointment to review their notes, research herbs, relevant pathophysiology and any potential herbal/drug interactions prior to developing your custom formulations. Approximately 1 week after your session you will receive an email from your herbalist with their feedback and recommendations.

Appointments take place virtually via Zoom.
The initial session is approximately 90-minutes long. You’ll discuss your primary health concerns, medical, family, and personal history, your nutrition and diet, exercise and sleep habits, as well as deep diving into the various systems of the body to potentially uncover additional areas that might benefit from herbal support.
The first follow up takes place about 6-8 weeks after your initial session. This is your opportunity to share your experience in using your herbal formulas, discuss any changes you’ve noticed or additional symptoms or concerns that have arisen, ask questions, etc. All follow up appointments last 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Additional follow up sessions will be scheduled on an ongoing basis, but the frequency is determined by the client. We do require one follow up session be scheduled at least once a quarter in order to continue filling your herbal formulas. Without regular check-ins, our clinical herbalist would not be doing her due diligence as far as properly monitoring your health and your progress.
