Adrian is a certified nutritionist, certified clinical herbalist, and botany enthusiast. He offers workshops that focus on empowering people to achieve their healing goals through herbal and nutritional remedies and education. Some of his key values around health and healing work include:
- Trusting a person’s own wisdom about their body
- Respecting diverse identities and experiences
- Body-positivity and health at every size
- Holistic approaches to health that acknowledge structural violence
- Being trauma-informed
- Accessibility/affordability
- Harm reduction
Adrian was originally trained in bioregional herbalism at the Columbines School of Botanical Studies in Eugene, OR. He then moved to Boulder to get his Nutrition and Clinical Herbalism Certifications at the Colorado School of Clinical Herbalism. After falling in love with the Rocky Mountains, Adrian has decided to stay and work as a clinician and botany instructor in the Denver/Boulder area.
“The treatments themselves do not ‘cure’ the condition, they simply restore the body’s self-healing ability.”
