Elise J.
Elise is an herbalist, artisan and Reiki practitioner whose lifelong passion for the natural world and the well-being of others has always guided her. Though her path to herbalism was not always linear, she was consistently drawn to nature and alternative modalities, particularly during her own periods of deep healing.
As her knowledge grew through research and study, family and friends increasingly sought her guidance in exploring alternative methods for their own health and wellness.
The turning point came when her mother was diagnosed with MS, making her commitment to herbalism undeniable. Soon after, Elise left her career as a professor and choreographer in the performing arts to dedicate herself fully to the study and cultivation of herbs, moving to a place where she could live and work with them year-round.
In recent years, Elise has both formally and informally deepened her lifelong expertise and education in herbalism through various institutions in Florida, including studying under master herbalist Rose Kalajian at The Natural Health Hut and at the Florida School of Holistic Living.
Now rooted in Central Florida, Elise is devoted to providing her community with natural remedies that nourish the mind, body, and spirit from the inside out. Her offerings are inspired by her own healing experiences and the needs of those around her. As a new mother of twins, she has developed a special passion for supporting women and children as they navigate the world together.
