Francisca Santibanez is a Bay Area based herbalist, wellness guide, medicine maker, educator and founder of Plant Spirit Talk.

Raised in South America, she spent her childhood in Brasil and Chile and later returned to study traditional Amazonian plant medicine in the jungles of Peru. 

Her courses focus on cultivating ritual space for deep sharing and healing, to learn integrative life skills, spiritual tools and plant based healing practices for more intimate engagement with nature and the healing process. She weaves in ancient wisdom and practical beliefs from her native South with the modern urban context of the North. Her aim is to create community space and support her students and clients in their personal and familial healing and fulfillment of their soul purpose.
