Herbal Consultations

My Offerings

 

Introductory Phone Call: 15 min, Free

An overview of my offerings and approach to herbal medicine as well as space to ask questions to determine whether I am the right practitioner for you.

Initial Consultation: 1.5-2 hours, $70-120 + the price of herbs

Initial consultations include a comprehensive assessment of your health history, body systems, and health concerns or goals. After our session together, you will receive an individualized protocol including customized herbal formulas as well as nutritional & lifestyle recommendations

Follow-Up Consultations: 45-60 min, $40-70 + the price of herbs

During follow-up appointments we will discuss your experience with your herbal formulas, dive deeper into previously mentioned health concerns or explore new ones that have arisen, and modify formulas as needed. I recommend a follow-up within 4 weeks of the initial appointment, and from then on timing of appointments is dependent on the person and their individual goals.

 

Sliding Scale & Packages

 

In an effort to make herbal medicine accessible, I offer my services on a sliding scale. The quality of my offerings remains the same regardless of financial contribution. Please consider that the “per hour” cost also includes the time spent preparing for and reviewing your case, determining energetic & physiological assessments, and crafting herbal formulas. I invite you take time to sit with the question of how much you can offer and keep in mind that paying on the higher end helps support accessibility for others. If you are looking for more clarity about where you fall on the sliding scale, check out this infographic by Alexis J. Cunningfolk. If your bottle is full, pay at or near the higher end of the scale, if your bottle is low, pay on the lower end, and so on.

If you feel that you would benefit from working together but are unable to pay within the sliding scale, please contact me. We can discuss payment plans or non-monetary trade.

Reparations: An initial consultation + 1 follow-up is available for $0 to all BIPOC. If you’d like to continue working with me beyond that, the sliding scale for follow-up consultations is $20-70.

 

Herbal Formulas & Apothecary

 

What to Expect

After your initial consultation, I will craft 1-3 herbal formulas personalized just for you. Formulas may take the form of teas (infusions & decoctions), powders, or tinctures, and I will take your preferences regarding herbal preparations into account when formulating. While Heart Thread Herbals operates from central Vermont, shipping is available throughout the United States. Sourcing herbs elsewhere is also an option.

The cost of formulas per month varies depending on the type of preparation and daily dosage. Heart Thread Herbals offers bulk herbs (for infusions & decoctions) and powders for $3.50/oz and tinctures for $8.50-10/oz. Bulk herb formulas typically range from $30-50/month, whereas tinctures could range from $50-150/month depending on the daily dosage. I am committed to helping herbal medicine be as accessible as possible and am happy to formulate based on your budgeting needs.

As time goes on, we may adjust, add, or remove formulas from your protocol as your health goals or personal preferences shift and evolve.
