It is a profound honor to work one on one with clients and witness the shifts people choose to make when we start working together, supported by the wisdom of the plants. ​

Your menopausal years

After a cancer or life-altering diagnosis

"Bonnie is non-judgmental, open and kind. The support they offered me is invaluable, and I would recommend their services to anyone who's curious to learn more about how herbs can improve their quality of life!” G.T.
Whole-Being Care
My intention is for you to leave each session with…
-
More presence for yourself, family and community, while living a busy, urban life.
​
-
Clarity around solutions to support what ails ya, with herbal remedies including teas, tinctures, salves, steams or flower essences with clear dosing instructions.
​
-
Personalized nutritional suggestions and lifestyle coaching to strengthen 1-3 healthy habits or rituals.
​
Over time my clients report…
-
Entering a flow-state and feeling more joy.
​
-
The feeling of being held through a transition that otherwise would have been more difficult.
​
-
Access to your personal power; to make choices from an embodied, authentic version of yourself and live the life you’ve dreamed of.
​
-
The focus of our work together shifts from being on the physical ailments to a more spiritual, energetic work of breaking life-long patterns and limiting beliefs.
Thoughtfully Crafted
for Results
Do you ever feel like...
-
Care-work is often transactional rather than relational?
​
-
You are moving through a change in life and you are ready to harness this energetic shift into a life transformation?
​
-
You want clarity about herbs that can support your wellbeing and an understanding about drug-herb interactions with any current or new pharmaceutical prescriptions?
​
-
Want "hand on your back support," not judgment?
​
-
You are overwhelmed by self care suggestions and how to get started?

How to Get Started
as a Client
Two points define a line, while one point is just, well, one point. In our work together it is important to find a direction to move in. To start, we will meet twice in 7 days, to sprout a therapeutic relationship.
New clients will:
-
Book two, one hour clinical visits on Zoom (or request in-person sessions), the second session within one week of the first.
​​
-
After these two visits, you become an established, active client, and receive email support between visits. (See more about this in FAQ’s, below)
​​
-
The price of the first herbal formula is included for new clients. After that, herbal tinctures are “a la cart” at $12 per oz for clients. After a 1 hour session, I pour 2 ounces of formula for a client, for $24 plus shipping and handling.
Why I Do this Work​
As a born-and-raised San Franciscan, and as a young person struggled with feeling “well.” Inhalers for sports-induced asthma did not feel like a good solution to my inability to run, play, bike and swim. In fact, they held me back from feeling strong and healthy.​
After learning about herbal medicine in college, and blending tea to strengthen my lungs, at age 21, I made a commitment to promote the use of herbal medicine for all people who live in San Francisco (occupied Ramaytush Ohlone Land).
Sown from the framework of indigenous herbalism and energy practices taught to me at The Blue Otter School, this clinical approach is designed to transform wellness on physical, emotional, spiritual, individual and community levels.
It is a common turn of phrase to say that an herbalists’ job is to be a bridge of connection between plants and people. I remain committed to this role in my San Francisco community. I hope you will join me on the journey and find a deeper sense of wellbeing in your mind, body and spirit.
How to Get Started
Step 1 Schedule a complementary curiosity call to see if we are a good fit (if we have worked together in the past, in any capacity, feel free to book the call to ask more questions about this offer, or email me to let me know you’re interested)
Step 2 Once we have both decided it would be a good fit to work together, find two, 1-hour slots that work for your schedule in my booking calendar.
Note Please book two, one-hour consultations within one week of each other, on separate days. For example, this can be Wednesday and Friday of the same week, Friday, then Wednesday of the following week, or same day of the week, one week apart. Please reach out if you have any questions about booking.
​
Step 3 Please pay for your first two appointments using a credit card or PayPal.
Step 4 You’ll get a confirmation email immediately upon payment. I will follow up within 1-2 days with a welcome email, and two forms for you to complete.
Step 5 Complete the forms via Google Drive at least 24 hours before our first appointment.

Please Note
All people are welcome in my practice of herbalism. Especially people whose identities are marginalized in the dominant culture, are welcome to my practice. This includes people of all ethnicities, genders, socio-economic status’, ages and any other “status” and especially if you do not feel seen, held or healed by allopathic (aka western) medicine.
I work through a social justice lens and understand that we have all experienced different levels and aspects of personal and/or social trauma, which deeply informs our circumstances, choices and reality of lives.
If you are looking for holistic support, are ready to dive in and “do the work” and my work resonates with you, yet you feel a financial barrier in reaching out, please do not hesitate. If I am your person, I want to hear from you and we will find a way to work together.
