Dr. Jacquie Leone first discovered the power of herbs at 19, while working in a holistic health center surrounded by acupuncture, traditional formulas, and the healing energy of plants. That early spark shaped her entire career. After graduating with a Bachelor in Psychology, she went on to earn her doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine, complete extensive training in botanical medicine, and continues to pursue advanced study in herbal therapies each year.

Over the course of her career, Dr. Leone has blended science with tradition—co-authoring book chapters, teaching nationally accredited courses in herbal medicine, and publishing numerous research-based articles on the safe and effective use of plants. She is passionate about making complex science approachable and showing how herbs can support everyday health in empowering ways.

For Dr. Leone, herbalism is both professional and personal. She grows and uses herbs regularly in her own home, grounding her teaching in lived experience that is practical, authentic, and deeply connected to the plants themselves. As practitioner, she takes the time to hear her client's story and work with them as a whole person, so any health plan actually fits their life and their goals.

Her areas of focus include women’s hormones, stress, sleep, immunity, digestion, mental health, and musculoskeletal support. Whether teaching, researching, or working one-on-one with clients, her goal is always the same: to help people feel confident, curious, and inspired about the role plants can play in their health.
