I teach people about herbalism--the art and science of plant medicine--so that they can live a more vibrant, healthy and connected life. I offer ongoing herbal classes and private wellness sessions. My work focuses on educating and inspiring people about herbs -- I teach about local plants, herbal medicine-making techniques, plant identification and useful herbs that every household can use.

I am Naturopathic Physician, in practice since 2005. I have a general Natuopathic family care practice. I have a special interest in behavioral and developmental disorders in children. I am board certified in Integrative Pediatrics. Alongside the Naturopathic cornerstones of nutrition, herbalism and homeopathy, I work with a European system of homeopathy and biologic medicines known as Biotherapuetic Drainage, and I do Bowen Therapy. (for more info, see my website www.drcathypicard.com) I got my start in the Natural Health industry in the mid 90's as produce co-manager at what was then known as "Cambridge Natural Foods". :)

Alex Klein

34 Eatonia St, Allston, MA 02134 • 617-650-9523 • www.alexkleinherbalist.com

I run a humble herbal practice in Allston, offering sliding-scale consultations to help local folks feel better using herbs. My approach comes out of the Western community herbalism tradition and, though a generalist in scope, I tend to work most around chronic illness, mental health and sleep, and menstrual and digestive health. I trained under 7Song at the Northeast School of Botanical Medicine and the Ithaca Free Clinic, as well as staffing herbal first aid tents at wilderness gatherings and doing foot care for the underserved. I strive to make my services accessible, affordable, and suit the lifestyle of my clients, offering medicine made almost entirely from plants I have gathered or grown myself.


Danica Connors, Shamanic Herbalist

PO Box 3782, Nantucket, MA 02584 • 781-962-6714 • shanticrow@aol.com

As a practitioner I work holistically with all areas of imbalance within the body, mind and spirit. I provide general herbal consultations as well as focused consultations dealing with Lyme Disease and the Co-Infections. From a shamanic perspective, I work with the energetic issues behind imbalances through the shamanic technique of journeying. Journeying is similar to guided meditation with drumming as a facilitator. The difference is that I do not guide you, spirit does. I facilitate my clients into their own shamanic journeys to work with their imbalances face to face. I don't fix things for you. You and your connection to spirit is what makes the adjustments.

Mo Katz-Christy, Clinical Herbalist

66A Elm St, Cambridge, MA 02140 • mkatzchristy@gmail.com

Our bodies have an inherent capacity to heal, and I help clients find the right herbs to support that capacity. While I support clients with any health conditions, I work primarily at the intersection of emotional and gut health — when mood is affecting gut health and vice versa. This brain-gut connection can show up through a wide variety of symptoms, such as acid reflux when stressed, or blood sugar spikes and crashes. I support clients in improving the communication between these two systems so that the whole person can thrive.
