I trained with Dennis Stewart in Australia in the 1980s and then returned to my home town of Christchurch, New Zealand where I have been in full time practice as a Medical Herbalist since February, 1989.

I love the work and continue to be inspired by its complexities, and its challenges. Many people come to me with difficult and long standing health problems. When people are unwell, you quickly find out what works and what doesn’t. Fortunately I get enough good results to have remained busy in my clinic to this day

Partly this is a business website in the sense that I have a consulting business and a few people find me through the internet (though the great majority of my patients come through word of mouth). However I am not looking to sell any products here.

Mostly what you will see, if you have a look around, is information and ideas for people who are suffering from health problems. Primarily I am writing for people who need to know more about how they can get help and help themselves.

The sections on health conditions are written from first-hand experience working with real patients with those exact same kinds of problems. The writings on herbs have a strong emphasis on practical information for anyone wanting to connect with these remarkable health allies.

If you are not able to come and see me in person then I beg you not to ask me to guide your health journey from afar. In the ‘about herbal medicine’ section you will see an article about how to find a good herbalist with this exact concern in mind.

You will see many of my ideas about health, healing and herbs scattered throughout these articles. If you are further interested, some of the thoughts I have expressed in the poems and music (to be) included here will tell you more about me than anything else I could tell you biographically.

Wherever you are, I wish you good health, peace, and happiness
