Her work focuses on supporting individuals experiencing pain, immune dysregulation, autoimmunity, nervous system imbalances, and women’s health concerns. Carrie takes a holistic and individualized approach, creating tailored protocols that may include herbal formulations, nutrition, and lifestyle support to help restore balance and resilience.

As a Christian herbalist, Carrie also offers a faith-based perspective for those who desire it, integrating spiritual wellness alongside physical and emotional health. She believes that true healing involves the whole person—body, mind, and spirit—and holds space for each client’s unique journey.

In 2025, Carrie joined the Alberta Herbalist Association’s Board of Directors and is excited to contribute to the growth and collaboration of the herbal community in Alberta.

Carrie is passionate about building meaningful relationships with her clients and supporting them in understanding their bodies from a deeper, more connected perspective.
