I am lucky enough that a love of plants since childhood, a long interest in holistic and complementary medicine, and a desire to help people achieve wellbeing have been brought together in my study and practice of herbal medicine.  

I have a Diploma (degree equivalent) with Distinction in Medical Herbalism following 4 years of study with Heartwood, a course accredited by the National Institute of Medical Herbalists (NIMH). I am trained in the traditional use of herbs, current medical science based on a functional medical approach, diagnostic skills, pharmacology, nutrition, clinical examination, and herb / drug interactions.

I am interested in the highest quality herbs and in low medicine miles, and aim to grow and make many of the medicines I supply. Herbal medicines that I buy in are ethically sourced.

I am a member of NIMH, bound by their code of ethics. In 2019, I received the Panacea Health Award for Materia Medica.

I am based in Sidmouth, East Devon, and offer face to face and virtual consultations.
