Herbal Consult

Wanting to go deeper in your healing journey in a container that honors the complexity of who you are right now? Consider a consultation with herbalist and Olamina Botanicals founder Jess Turner. 

Living in this world fully conscious requires untold stores of strength and courage. Medicinal plants provide a balm for the spirit, strengthening us as we endeavor to live in truth in troubled times.

Although herbalism can help us lean on plants when lived experience feels unbearable, they also open up space to explore balance, build homeostasis and cultivate joy. Through this work, we can come to see plants as not only tools for wellness, but kin with whom we are meant to travel this life.

In a consultation, you and Jess will explore the plants that are best suited to you and your situation, using herbs to support your body's own effort in its drive toward balance. The plants' medicinal actions, energetics, flavor and constituents are what will be called upon to do this work.

Herbalism is about supporting the whole person: medicinal plants work on a long-term, subtle and energetic level. In addition to guiding you to herbal allies that will help you meet your goals, Jess will suggest nourishing dietary and lifestyle strategies.

Jess feels a particular calling to work with those seeking to build personal power in the face of oppression; address mood, inflammation, low energy, blood sugar imbalance and food intolerance; connect with intuition; nourish themselves through trauma; attend to grief; treat skin conditions and heal the gut.

HERBAL Consult with Jess turner: Sliding scale* $130 - $255

Appointment includes intake, a one-and-a-half to two-hour assessment via phone or video call, write-up of the herbal protocol that will best support you and two ounces of a custom tincture blend tailored to your needs, from herbs Jess has crafted into formula.

The formulas listed in our shop represent a small fraction of what can be blended for you—our apothecary includes remedies made from more than 100 medicinal plants. Recent client formulas have addressed focus, anxiety, cardiovascular health, healing from food intolerance and adrenal fatigue. Alcohol-free glycerites and topical options are both celebrated and available!

FOLLOW-UP APPOINTMENT: sliding scale $40 - $75 + COST OF FORMULA

This is for anyone who might like to address new issues that have arisen since their initial consult, tweak their herbal formula, or check-in about how a protocol is landing. 

*Sliding scale is a tool for equity and liberation. In the world we want to live in, “from each according to their ability, to each according to their need” would be the ethos that guided allocation of our efforts as individuals and our resources as a society. Our ask is that people who are more resourced—including but not limited to those who have access to waged work, support from family/partners, rental, investment and other forms of supplemental income—pay at the highest end of the scale.
