Megan [they/she]
Megan is a clinical herbal practitioner who explores the interconnected factors influencing health and the whole person, considering each client’s lived experience, community support, and wider care team. Their approach is collaborative and thoughtful, recognizing that meaningful change often happens when the body, mind, and environment are all included in the treatment plan, and that care is most effective when clients feel genuinely heard and involved in the process.
Megan has completed over 500 hours of supervised clinical practice, more than 400 hours of biomedical science training, and 750+ hours of Western herbal science education, cultivating a strong foundation in both herbal therapeutics and biomedical understanding. This training has supported the development of detailed assessment skills, nuanced formulation strategies, and an ability to bridge traditional knowledge with contemporary research in a clinical setting. They are currently enrolled in the Master Gardener Program and have studied with internationally renowned herbalist Chanchal Cabrera, further enriching their knowledge of plants from seed to medicine and deepening their appreciation of the relationships between ecology, land, and health.
Megan’s own journey through chronic pain, mental health concerns, and digestive issues inspired her to explore Western herbal medicine and supports her in connecting with people who are experiencing similar health challenges. This lived experience informs a compassionate clinical style that centres client safety, validation, and empowerment, with an emphasis on realistic, sustainable shifts that honour each person’s capacity, resources, and pace of change. Megan is particularly interested in working collaboratively alongside other practitioners in a client’s life to help build a more cohesive and consistent circle of care when possible.
Megan’s primary areas of focus include:
· Menstrual health
· Digestive concerns
· Depression and anxiety
· Support for elders
Megan welcomes people of all ages and identities into the clinic. In their free time, they enjoy reading, cooking, spending time with their two kittens, and tending to the small daily rituals that help sustain connection, rest, and a sense of home.
