Book a Consultation
Hi, I’m Ivy Ham. I know what it feels like to be lost in a maze of pain, uncertainty, and frustration with conventional treatments. After years of grappling with trauma, medical gaslighting, and feeling hopeless, I discovered the transformative power of clinical herbalism. My personal journey—from navigating gut issues and hormonal imbalances to recovering from a traumatic brain injury—ignited my passion for herbal medicine and holistic healing.
When you work with me, I bring that hard-won wisdom directly to you. I believe that true healing starts with understanding your unique story, and I’m here to help you reclaim your health with empathy, integrity, and a personalized approach. Whether you’re working towards a goal, have chronic health challenges, or are simply seeking to boost your overall vitality, I craft individualized plans that blend traditional herbal remedies with modern insights from peer-reviewed research, ancient healing modalities, homeopathy, and functional nutrition.

Are there any risks or side effects associated with herbal treatments?
With any herb, drug, lifestyle change or mental health issue, there is always a risk for side effects. We are all created differently from one another, so not all things will work for everyone. I always encourage my clients to work with other health professionals like their primary care doctor to ensure they are getting the best possible outcomes.
What is the cancellation policy for appointments?
Life happens, and I completely understand that sometimes you can’t make it for unforeseen reasons. Please try to give as much notice as possible, and we can reschedule an appointment to a more convenient time. If it becomes a habit, I may choose to impose a fee.
What is Herbalism?
Herbalism is the study use of plants as medicine. I personally also view herbalism as a holistic study of the body and incorporate other healing ideologies into my practice that make sense. I would refer to my practice as being functional herbalism that takes notes from homeopathy, German New Medicine, and traditional healing paradigms such as Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine & Western herbalism.
Can herbal medicines be used in conjunction with conventional medicine?
Absolutely! One of the many reasons my clients will reach out to me before beginning a new herbal protocol is to check if any of the herbs will interact with their medication(s). Herbal medicines contain many of the same constituents found in RX medications and can interact with other herbs, meds and existing health conditions, so it’s always important to work with someone informed to avoid unnecessary side effects.
Do you take health insurance?
No, I am not able to accept insurance of any kind.
