Clearing the need for anti-depressant medication
Flower essences are so far-reaching for healing potential, and in conjunction with herbs, they are extremely effective in healing the body and mind—they are fantastic for setting up the platform for people to know that they can heal.
Though clients have answered and completed a questionnaire form prior to their first visit with Debbie, she asks further questions and asks them to tell their stories so that she is able to “hear” what was not written on the form. There are always emotional components, which she can sense, feel, and hear in the verbal description of their symptoms. With the ability to pulse test, she may hear one story verbally from a client but the testing result can be very different. Generally, the first story she hears told by a person is from the conscious or logical mind, but then further into discussion, the subconscious mind kicks in and that of which one is not conscious or doesn’t want to speak about begins to surface. Based on physical symptoms, Debbie first pulse tests for herbs, then for flower essences, which are used with all clients. She has follow up sessions with them every 4 weeks, then 6-8 weeks, and sees most clients for a year or more. Often Debbie at first will use Agrimony herb and the flower essence with a client: “It’s especially helpful for those not knowing how to speak their truth. The two in conjunction work on multiple levels.” If Debbie suspects that someone is not engaged in their own healing, she will pulse test for Self Heal flower essence, so she can “figure out whether or not they’re telling the truth.” Debbie also has discovered when further along into the healing process, after the first layers are addressed and one gets deeper into what has cleared, that Yerba Santa “comes on board” for nearly everyone.
Lead essences for Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and Down Syndrome Because fear is a common symptom, Debbie uses Aspen for her clients in various stages of Alzheimer’s disease . “They know that they’re fearful but don’t know of what or why.” She also uses Chamomile herb and flower essence in combination for the attention deficit-like symptoms; people become less nervous and shaky.
Debbie has worked with people diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease who are in their 40s and 50s, and are naturally fearful of how the disease will affect them, what will happen, and whether or not they will die from it. “They simply didn’t know how to adjust to it. Angelica was helpful for them and later they had more hope and were more actively engaged in their healing.”

Clearing the need for anti-depressant medication B was a woman who for years had been taking the anti-depressant Cymbalta for the heavy stress she experienced due to extreme legal issues she inherited within her family when her mother and father passed away. She had bleeding ulcers among other conditions. She was a very controlling person, though this trait served her well for fully engaging in her healing process. Flower essences used with B: Vervain – for control issues St. John's Wort – for melancholy Self-Heal White Chestnut Snapdragon – because B could be quite verbal She also began a detox diet and used herbs for the bleeding ulcers. Within about 6 months, abruptly everything was cleared; B on her own without consulting with Debbie, had stopped taking Cymbalta, and her body had cleared out as well. She continued to use Vervain and Oak for strength, and for a period of time Sweet Chestnut . B went to see Debbie during an especially difficult period of time and was considering taking Cymbalta again. Instead she used Rescue Remedy for a few days and then was just fine.
