Mentoring
I offer mentorship to those who would like to enquire deeper into the plants or help with finding their path in the world - whether that is as a herbalist or another expression of your soul’s calling.
I can support you with:
Distilling and understanding the direction you are taking
Guide you with challenges and blocks within yourself which may be holding you back
Support and reflection as you develop your work
Feedback on your research and written work as you develop your understanding of the plants
Help with structuring your study time, staying focused on your vision and bringing your work to life
tasks and reflection points for you to work on between sessions
These mentorship sessions are a space for you to be seen, heard and to unravel what you are discovering - to turn inspiration into action.
Exchange:
Sessions are £70 for 75-minute sessions or £180 for a block of 3 sessions. I offer a discount to those already studying with the School of Intuitive Herbalism, and I have a limited number of concessionary rates available.
“Emily’s relationship with the plants and her embodiment of the guidance they offer her has been such a shining light for me and her mentorship has been invaluable. She holds an accepting, loving and gentle space, allowing me to drop deeply into the truth of what is alive for me while offering perfectly timed nudges and reflections that guide me into deeper connection with myself and the plants. Since working with her, my momentum forward has been led by my heart rather than my head, my faith in myself has grown, and I feel I have a real ally walking this plant-lined path with me. ”
Online Introduction to Intuitive Herbalism
I am now offering mentorship for the new online course from the School of Intuitive Herbalism. A beautifully structured and self-directed learning platform, it introduces you to the core themes and ways of working with the plants that have developed and evolved through the in-person trainings held at the school.
Mentoring alongside the course includes 3 x 75 -minute sessions where we will delve deeper into the content of the course through a mixture of discussion, reflection and guided embodied practices.
These sessions will have key components we will explore but are tailored to each person’s personal questions and enquiry into the plant work.
This can be taken as a stand-alone option, as a gateway to studying further with the School of Intuitive Herbalism, or as a starting point for further in-depth soul mentorship and guidance with me.
Exchange:

“Emily creates a safe space that has enabled me to find my voice and vision. Sitting with Emily, held with the plants and guided by the plants - she holds a space that enables and supports me to access my true plant nature, or what others may call divine wisdom.
Meeting in the stillness of this, Emily guides me into myself… my soul calling and offers gentle and simple presence, through the wisdom of the plants, for me to discover who I am.
Emily is very intuitive, a deep listener, who provides a deeply nurturing and clear space - in which unfolds inner wisdom and clarity, that helps support the deeper soul journey.
In this space - I exist in plant time - accessing a different brain wave state - opening myself to the wisdom of the plants and my own higher wisdom.
It is a mystery as I journey deeper into who I am, and sessions can provide missing strands or understandings, bringing these deeper weavings into my everyday life, bringing more of my soul essence into my life… what a precious gift! ”
Background to my offerings in mentorship
The courses run at the school are unique in herbalism trainings in that they are nearly entirely plant-centred - i.e. we spend about 80% of our time in direct contact and relationships with the plants, rather than learning through didactic teaching.
The courses are heavily student-centred, with each individual’s soul journey very much at the core of the work, unravelling and revealing who each person is as a herbalist.
As much as possible we have stepped away from top-down teaching styles, encouraging students to create their own learning pace, outcomes and deadlines.
Although hugely exciting and liberating, this can feel pretty overwhelming! Especially if your experience of education has been goal-driven, with appraisals and qualifications given from those outside of us weighted as more important than our own sense of learning and skill development.
I offer mentorship as a space of guidance, reflection and support as you discover and figure out this path for yourself.
Having trained for 7 years myself with the school and now running my own herbalism practice alongside assisting on courses at the school, I understand first-hand the journey. I know what it takes to keep walking your own path and the stumbling blocks, challenges and moments of doubt that arise along the way.
