A little about me…

Hi, I’m Rebecca, a qualified western medical herbalist and my practice is on the north coast of Cornwall and online.

I have a background in primary care mental health, working as a psychological wellbeing practitioner (PWP) delivering cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) based interventions to patients in GP’s surgeries across East Lancashire.

I moved to Cornwall 12 years ago aiming for a better work life balance (which is still a work in progress) and started to wonder if there was a more holistic way of looking after myself. I dabbled in a kitchen herbalism, using garden herbs for minor ailments and that interest developed into a desire to understand more about how the body works and how it responds to herbs.

And when I say herbs I mean, roots, leaves, seeds, flowers, stems, fruits and even mushroom fruiting bodies!

I then embarked on a 4-year diploma (equivalent to a BSc (Hons)) with Betonica School of Herbal Medicine. Throughout my studies I have maintained a focus on wellbeing, and this is what I take into my work as a medical herbalist using herbal medicine to nudge health back in wellness.

If you want to take steps to start your herbal journey with me then please do get in touch here and I look forward to working with you.

Rebecca
