"I had done years of talk therapy, embodiment practice, and nutritional healing, but Clare was the missing link in my recovery"

 "Clare’s non-judgmental approach to holistic support has shifted the way I make decisions about my health and my family’s health. Thanks to Clare, I’ve gone from gluten allergy, store-bought lotions and creams, teas and Advil Cold and Sinus to an herb-first mindset that has made me feel better and more empowered. "

-E., Postpartum client

There are no guarantees in healing; there can be a whole lot of information gathering and visits to specialists, and even more surrender to the experience.

I can help you find your voice, begin or deepen your connection to plants and the natural world, and remember just how much you can trust yourself.

The sooner you tap into that, the stronger you will feel. You already have everything you need.

Tailor your healing to your lifestyle and comfort level.

Some clients come to me after years of being sent from specialist to specialist, ready to see what answers herbal medicine alone might have for their long-term well-being. Others want a healing protocol that complements the medicine they’re taking, or replenishes their body after a round of strong antibiotics or before/after surgery. I pride myself on avoiding black-and-white thinking and recognize the value in merging both time-tested and modern healing practices. I seek to be the middle ground that a lot of us are struggling to find in healthcare right now.

Feel confident in what you’re consuming

I meet you where you are and will explain in great detail why I have recommended specific herbs based on your symptoms and concerns. I will prioritize your relationship with your self-trust and your own body over the potency of any particular plant - what you say and know about your body is paramount. If not local to the lowcountry, I will help you build relationships with herbalists and apothecaries in your area whenever possible.

Avoid unnecessary
medical interventions until we truly need them.

I will provide you with a multi-tiered support protocol, starting with the gentlest, simplest response to the symptoms you’re experiencing first and foremost. I will tailor my recommendations to your lifestyle and to any existing protocol or medications you are already on, if you’re not ready to wean off of them. I will also include more comprehensive support that may require more time and energy for when you’re ready. Whatever route you choose, I can provide individualized support to help you take ownership over your healing experience. I am more than happy to work alongside practitioners with whom you already have a trusting relationship.

Relax into the process

I've got your back. You can ask me a million questions and know I've heard (most of) them before. It really helps to have someone there, hired by you, and therefore entirely focused on you and whatever comes up for you through your healing process.

 Let’s work together, using time-tested practices that lean on the natural world, to fill the gaps that a black-and-white system has left open.

Postpartum Support

I strive to be the warm blanket and cup of soup you're really, really craving right now.

As a postpartum doula, I provide emotional, educational, physical, and sometimes spiritual support during pregnancy, labor, and the postpartum period.

*Note: I am not able to offer on-call support for birth clients anymore. I work with a great partner doula where I provide excellent prenatal education + postpartum support, but there is no guarantee that I will be able to attend your birth. If you are a repeat client or you are looking for a really great referral, please reach out and we’ll talk!
