~ BOOKING OPEN FOR 2024 ~
Free Clinic Booking Request
If you would like to see an herbalist to support your wellness journey, and do not feel that you can afford the cost of a holistic herbal consultation, please click the link below to request a free clinic package.
This link will bring you to our free clinic booking page, where you will be asked to choose a date and time for our first consultation, and to briefly describe the primary issues and wellness goals you’d like to address through our work together.
There are limited spots available each month, and I want to ensure they go to those who need them. If you are able to afford the cost of a holistic herbal consultation, please book here, as paid clients support a higher availability of spots for the free clinic. If you are not interested in a consultation but would like to support the Free Clinic, please consider donating.
If no times are available in a given month, that means all free clinic spots have been filled for the month. Please choose another month to book your spot.
What you'll receive as a client:
• A 1-hour consultation with herbalist Alex Williams
• A personalized protocol tailored to your specific situation, including recommendations on customized herbal supplements.
• Up to 3 visits at no charge (Initial consultation + 2 follow-up visits)
Considerations:
• Case details may be shared with 2 - 3 herbal mentors for professional development purposes only with your consent.
• The cost of herbs or other supplements is not included, but offered at a 15% discount for Free Clinic clients. I will be conscious of your budget when making recommendations and can usually recommend low-cost accessible options.
• You will need a stable internet connection with video capabilities, and a private place to meet during the consultation.
• I comply with HIPAA standards. Your files and any other information you provide will be kept in HIPAA-secure online spaces. Our virtual meeting takes place via a HIPAA-secure online virtual room.
• Sessions are audio recorded for note taking purposes. All recordings and transcriptions are stored securely on Practice Better's HIPAA compliant server and are only available to Alex Williams for the purposes of note-taking, research, and protocol development.
What happens when you are accepted into the Free Clinic?
1. Sign up for Practice Better - You will receive an invitation to join Alex's secure client management system, Practice Better. It's free and this platform will give you access to the forms and video conferencing tools needed to conduct the consultation.
2. Complete Forms Online - You will be sent two forms to complete before we meet (an Informed Consent & Disclosure form, and a Confidential Intake Form & Client Record), which will be stored securely and shared with an herbal mentor only with your consent. These forms must be submitted 3 days prior to your consultation in order to keep your appointment.
3. 1-hour Online Herbal Consultation - During our consultation, we will go through your health history and wellness goals, so we can develop a clear picture of where you are at on your wellness journey. During this consultation, we will book your follow-up session.
4. Receive Herbal Protocol - After your session, I devote several hours to go over your case, research, and develop an herbal and lifestyle protocol for you. You will receive this written guidance through Practice Better about a week after our consultation.
5. Purchase Herbs / Supplements - While the free clinic offers no-cost consultations, at this point we are unable to offer free herbs. You are not obligated to purchase herbs directly from me, but if you choose to do so, I will send you an invoice for your custom formulations along with your protocol and shipp after payment of herbs is received.
6. Follow-up Visits - After you receive your recommendations, you are welcome to up to two follow-up visits with Alex to check in and see how the herbs are working with you.
