My approach
The work begins with the case history
I take the time to hear your whole story, and I treat the person, not only the symptoms.
Classical homeopathy asks for a full picture before any prescription is made. That is why the first consultation is long, and why I never use a standard programme.
Listening
The first consultation takes about 90 minutes. We go through your complaints, sleep, digestion, energy, emotions, stress and family history, at your own pace.
The whole person
I look at the physical, emotional and lifestyle picture together, not at the symptoms in isolation. Two people with the same diagnosis can receive different prescriptions.
A considered prescription
After the consultation I study your case and choose a remedy and potency, with clear instructions on how to take it.
Review and follow-up
At each follow-up we look at your response and adjust the prescription as needed.
Alongside your GP
Homeopathy is complementary. I encourage you to stay under the care of your GP or specialist and, with your consent, I will keep them informed. I see people of all ages, including those who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Experience across cultures
Twenty-five years of practice in India, the UK, the US and the Netherlands has shown me how differently people experience and describe illness.
