What I offer
Every modality I practise, I practise because I have witnessed what it does — in my own body, in my family, and in two years of clinical work. Nothing here is offered at a distance. These are tools I have lived inside, and they are offered with that depth of understanding.
Clinical Western herbalism · French phytotherapy tradition
Initial consultation · Follow-up · Personalised formulations
There is a moment in every initial consultation when I ask someone to describe their health — not just their diagnosis, but their whole health. Their energy in the morning, their relationship with sleep, the way their body responds to stress, what their skin does in winter. And in that conversation, something shifts. They are not being reduced to a test result. They are being seen.
Clinical Western herbalism is rooted in exactly that: the whole person, not the symptom. Drawing on the French phytotherapy tradition in which I was trained — a system that has been embedded in European medicine for centuries — I create personalised herbal protocols that address not just what hurts, but why it hurts, and what the body needs to find its own equilibrium again.
My particular experience is with hormonal health. Endometriosis, PCOS, chronic fatigue, perimenopausal transition, menstrual irregularity, fertility support. I know these conditions not just from clinic, but from my own body's long struggle with them. That shapes everything about how I listen, and how I prescribe.
Conditions I commonly support
Naturopathy diploma · Lifestyle & integrative protocols
Lifestyle medicine · Nutrition · Detox support · Root cause approach
Naturopathy begins with a simple premise that mainstream medicine rarely has time for: why is this happening? Not just what is the diagnosis, but what conditions in this person's life, diet, stress patterns, sleep, and environment have created the ground in which this illness is growing?
As a trained naturopath, I work alongside herbal medicine to address the foundations of health. That means looking at nutrition — not as a prescription but as a conversation about what your body is actually asking for. It means examining sleep, stress, movement, and the rhythms your body runs on. It means understanding that many chronic conditions, especially those involving hormones, are downstream effects of how we are living — and that changing those foundations can change everything.
For many of my clients, naturopathic guidance runs alongside their herbal protocol. For others, it is where we start. Every person's path is different. The consultation is long enough to find out which one you need.
Areas of focus
Indian head massage diploma · Stress & nervous system · In person
60-minute session · In person · Tension, stress & deep relaxation
I have never had someone leave an Indian head massage session and not look different. There is a particular quality of stillness that settles over people in the last few minutes of the treatment — something behind the eyes softens, the shoulders drop in a way they haven't all day, the jaw unclenches. And when they stand up, they often pause, as though they need a moment to remember where they are.
"Like floating" is how my clients most often describe it. That is not an accident. Indian head massage works on the upper back, shoulders, neck, scalp and face — precisely the places where the body stores its tension, its held breath, its unfinished stress responses. In releasing those places, something much larger lets go.
Rooted in the Ayurvedic tradition and practised in India for over a thousand years, champi — as it is called in its original form — has always understood that the head is not separate from the body. The scalp alone contains dozens of marma points, energetic centres whose stimulation affects the whole system. I work with both the traditional Ayurvedic framework and the Western anatomical understanding of the nervous system — because knowing why something works deepens how you deliver it.
This therapy is particularly beautiful when combined with a herbal consultation. Many of my hormonal health clients carry enormous tension — years of pain, of being dismissed, of fighting their own bodies. The massage creates a space where the body can receive, rather than brace. That is where healing begins.
I left feeling like I was floating — I genuinely forgot where I had parked my car. I have had massages before but nothing like this. Something in my neck that has been tight for two years just... wasn't.

What it supports
TCM training · 6-month dispensary externship · Integrative approach
Cross-tradition herbal medicine · Woven into all consultations
Most Western herbalists know about Chinese medicine in the way you know about a country you have read about but never visited. I spent six months working alongside a TCM and acupuncture practitioner in their dispensary — on my own initiative, outside of my formal training hours — because I wanted more than a theoretical understanding.
What I found there changed my practice. The diagnostic lens of Traditional Chinese Medicine — the way it reads the body through tongue and pulse, through patterns of deficiency and excess, through the relationship between organs as energetic systems rather than purely anatomical ones — adds a depth of assessment that I now bring into every consultation, regardless of which tradition I am prescribing from.
For hormonal conditions in particular, this matters enormously. Chinese medicine has one of the oldest and most sophisticated traditions of gynaecological herbal medicine in the world. Herbs like dong quai, peony root, and rehmannia have been used for menstrual irregularity, endometriosis-like conditions, and hormonal cycles for thousands of years. To work with them well, you need to understand the system they come from. I do.
My training also spans Ayurveda, giving me fluency across three distinct systems of plant medicine. In practice, that means I can draw on the most appropriate tools for your specific body and condition — rather than fitting every person into one framework.
Former elite athlete · Adaptogen protocols · Performance & recovery
Herbal protocols for active people · Recovery · Resilience · Injury support
I trained as a synchronised swimmer at national level. I know what it means to live inside a high-performance body — the discipline, the pain tolerance, the intimate knowledge of your own limits and how to push past them. I also know what it means when that body starts to fail you, when the gap between effort and recovery widens and doesn't close, when the injuries multiply and the fatigue becomes a kind of fog you can't train through.
Plant medicine has an extraordinary relationship with performance. Adaptogens — herbs like ashwagandha, rhodiola, eleuthero, and schisandra — work with the body's stress response systems to build resilience over time. Not a stimulant hit, not a temporary suppression of fatigue signals, but a genuine improvement in how the body manages stress loads: physical, hormonal, and psychological.
Anti-inflammatory protocols using turmeric, boswellia, devil's claw, and specific nervines can support injury recovery and reduce the chronic low-grade inflammation that accumulates in highly trained bodies. Sleep herbs support the recovery window that performance genuinely depends on. Hormonal support — particularly for female athletes, whose cycles are often disrupted by high training loads — is an area where my personal and clinical experience runs especially deep.
What I work with in active people
Seasonal experiential wellness · Four Seasons Holistic Walks
There is a form of healing that cannot happen indoors. It requires ground underfoot, changing light, the smell of plants in their season. The Japanese call it shinrin-yoku — forest bathing. The French have always called it une promenade. I call it the oldest form of botanical medicine there is.
My Four Seasons Holistic Walks are guided outdoor experiences that combine botanical education, sensory awareness, gentle movement, and the therapeutic effects of immersion in nature. Each season tells a different story about the plant world — and about the body's own seasonal rhythms.
These walks are for small groups. They are not exercise classes. They are slow, attentive, and designed to leave you feeling reconnected — to plants, to your own senses, and to a pace of living that most of us have forgotten.

Custom formulations & remedies
The formulation is where the herbalist's knowledge becomes something you can hold in your hands. Every blend I create begins with a consultation — because a tincture made for your specific constitution, your specific symptoms, and your specific season of life is not the same thing as a supplement you take from a shelf.
I also develop a small range of pre-made remedies for common presentations — seasonal immunity, sleep support, hormonal ease — which are available to existing clients and through selected stockists.
Every path through my practice begins with a free 15-minute discovery call. No commitment, no pressure — just an honest conversation about where you are and what might help. I offer consultations in English and French, online and in person, to clients in the UK and internationally.
