About Crystal Bailey

Meet Crystal

Hi! I'm a Naturopath, Midwife, Nurse, and Feminine Embodiment Coach.

Wild Herb is my dream practice, the culmination of my health practitioner journey. Since I was a little girl, I wanted to work in healthcare. In college, I struggled with the decision of whether to go to medical school or naturopathic physician school, but neither fit, since one was too medical and one wasn't licensed where I live. I ultimately went the Nurse Practitioner route, the traditional Doctor of Naturopathy route, and the Institute for Functional Medicine routes of education! I chose the midwifery specialty in nursing school because of the sacred respect of women's natural process of birthing and the opportunity to focus on women's health. Now I am excited to focus on botanical and functional approaches to supporting women's health.

    Lives in....

    Atlanta, GA. Actually, Decatur. I'm a transplant from the midwest- my family lives in Ohio- but I was born in California.

    Loves...

    Travel! I love to be in other cultures! Aside from traveling for fun, I have lived in Africa three times- Uganda, Malawi, and South Sudan. I've trained midwives there with SEED global health and served with Doctors without Borders. I also love gardening native plants and sitting and watching the pollinators. In winters, you can find me on pottery wheel, decorating the clay surface with wildflowers. 

    Other work....

    My midwife work defined most of my 20-30s. I was trained at Emory, was a founding midwife at Atlanta Birth Center, and had a homebirth practice, Moonlight Midwifery.
