Danielle’s journey into plant medicine began during a challenging period in her life when her beloved dog was diagnosed with bone cancer. Given only weeks to live, she turned to herbal medicine in search of hope. With a carefully designed diet and herbal regimen, her dog not only defied the prognosis but lived two years longer than expected. Though this was a difficult time, it deeply inspired Danielle to explore the power of herbal medicine.

As her passion for plant medicine grew, she enrolled at the Berkeley Herbal Center, where she completed both Village Herbalist programs. This experience reinforced her dedication to holistic healing. Danielle has always been drawn to helping others in a healthcare setting. Her early career as an EMT in Sonoma County led her to patient care, assisting in the neonatal intensive care unit at UCSF, where she spent 10 years working with the neonatal population. Alongside this, she also worked as a Pilates instructor, helping people heal through conscious movement and harness a deeper connection with mind and body.

Now living in Hawaii on the beautiful garden island of Kauai, Danielle is preparing to open her own clinical practice within her community. She envisions a collaborative approach, integrating plant medicine with other healthcare professionals. Passionate about holistic well-being, Danielle is eager to work with individuals seeking healing, balance, and a deeper connection to their health.

Marjorie is a mother, clinical and community herbalist, and dance instructor.

From an early age, she was given herbal remedies that had been passed down from her grandmother, which was the beginning of a lifelong connection to plants. She is fluent in Spanish and English and is guided by her cultural roots and professional training to provide personalized, trauma-informed care.

Marjorie earned a BA in Psychology and spent over 10 years working in mental health clinics serving the Latine community. After college, she returned to herbal medicine to support her reproductive health and navigate grief, which led her to study at the Berkeley Herbal Center. She also completed an apprenticeship with the Botanical Bus, a bilingual mobile herb clinic in Sonoma County, and continues to collaborate with its team to promote social justice through accessible, equitable, and affordable healthcare.

She supports people through their journey with mental health, pregnancy and postpartum, digestion, joint mobility, and dental care. Her approach focuses on restoring harmony through nutrition, emotional wellness, and lifestyle habits. Outside of her practice, Marjorie is passionate about animals, poetry, and ceramics.
