Working with an Herbalist

One of the common complaints about our healthcare system is that doctors have but a few minutes to spend with patients. This makes it difficult if not impossible to listen to someone and get to the root of their troubles. Key benefits of working with a good herbalist are time spent with clients and their commitment to listening and uncovering details and connections.

Not all herbalists are the same, just like not all people are the same. Caterina takes a whole person approach to herbalism. She works with clients to explore physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health goals. What this looks like is a comprehensive 1-1.5 hour initial intake that delves into your health history, current state, and goals.

Prior to the consultation, clients will fill out an intake form. This is a helpful starting point for the conversation. Clients then receive personalized nutritional, herbal, and lifestyle recommendations. Clients and herbalists are a team, working together to promote health and vitality.

Caterina is, at heart, a teacher. Her goal is for her clients to be empowered to need her less, not more.

Herbalists do NOT diagnose or treat disease. There is currently no licensing for herbalists in the US. We are not licensed healthcare practitioners

Herbal Consultations

Book

Prior to booking a consultation, clients reach out and share briefly about their goals to see if working with Caterina is a good fit. Once a consultation is scheduled, clients fill out an intake form – to be submitted at least 24 hours before the appointment.

Running from 1-1.5 hours, consultations are in depth conversations about clients health history, current state, and health goals.

Clients will receive personalized lifestyle, nutritional, and herbal recommendations within 1 week of consultation. Upon receiving recommendations, clients can schedule a free 20 minute phone call to go over the protocol and ask any questions.

Initial consultations are meant for first time clients, or clients who have not seen Caterina in 2+ years. They run 1 – 1.5 hours and range from $200-$300. Email for sliding scale pricing.


Follow Ups are scheduled for 4-6 weeks after an initial consultation. After that they may be scheduled less often, as needed. This is where the magic happens. Follow ups allow clients to check in about their protocol. How is it working? Is it manageable? What tweaks, if any, can be made? Over time, health goals shift and this can also be addressed in a follow up. The cost is $80.
