Hi. I'm Abby.

I’ve been in conversation with plants for as long as I can remember. One of my earliest memories is talking to the honeysuckle bush next to my childhood home when I was five. This was a spirit that would find its way back to me years later. To me, the Earth has always felt alive, responsive, and relational. Put your metaphors aside. I mean that literally.
 

For a while, though, I lost my way back to that knowing.
 

Like a lot of sensitive souls, I moved through long stretches of anxiety, depression, burnout, and the particular exhaustion that comes from trying to survive a society that wasn't built for deep thinkers and feelers. Trauma narrowed my nervous system's capacity, and I was on edge. Disconnection dulled my senses, so I was numb. Life was too loud, so in response I oscillated between panic and shutdown. 
 

What helped me out wasn’t just one thing. Trauma-informed healing and energy work gave me a foothold when I couldn’t see a way forward. Studying Chinese Medicine and Vitalist herbalism reawakened the intelligence I had always related to in plants. It's that sense that Life already knows how to heal when it’s met with the right conditions. Over time, that remembering and relationship stitched me back together.

​

Today, Bloom is how I share what nectar I’ve gathered along the way with others. My work is for people who feel deeply, think a lot, and are tired of forcing themselves into strict routines, or otherwise weird wellness boxes, and not feeling any better. I support sensitive nervous systems in softening, reorganizing, and finding their way back to joy as a felt sense of safety and aliveness.

​

I offer one-on-one sessions, group experiences, workshops, and herbal remedies, alongside Bloom Nights, seasonal gatherings, and botanical elixir menu curation. I also teach energy work, and I see horses for acutherapy and energy healing as well. 

Reconnect with yourself and the world.

My Philosophy

Healing, to me, is really just remembering what’s intact beneath the noise. When you restore right relationship with yourself, your body, and the living world around you, a sense of personal agency comes back online. Choices feel so much clearer without all the outside influences. Energy flows more honestly, straight from your heart and divine connection. Life becomes something you’re participating in, not enduring.
 

I call this way of working Vital Earth Medicine—a living blend of botanical medicine, energy work, neuroscience, and integrative health practices. It’s informed by ongoing study, yes, but guided first by listening to the body, the plants, and to what’s actually happening in front of us.
 

Whether we’re working together through hands-on sessions, custom herbal support, long-form health consulting, or shared space around a table, the intention is always the same: to help you inhabit yourself more fully and live in a way that feels true and joyful.
