About the Presenter:

Mo Katz-Christy is an Clinical Herbalist and believes in the inherent capacity of bodies to heal, and uses plants to help support that capacity. Mo spent three years studying herbalism in-depth at the Vermont Center for Integrative Herbalism. In their final year they worked in the sliding-scale student clinic, where they saw dozens of clients and received support from their colleagues and teachers. They continue to learn from the plants and from lectures, books, and conferences — and from their garden and kitchen! They especially value supporting anyone who has felt marginalized by healthcare professionals including elders, neurodivergent and queer folks.
