My journey with medicinal and aromatic plants spans more than 28 years and over 21 countries, working with growers, distillers, manufacturers, universities, healthcare professionals, and wellness organizations worldwide.
Originally from Egypt and now based in the United States, I am passionate about connecting people, plants, and cultures through aromatherapy, education, and botanical wellness. As a Clinical Aromatherapist, educator, consultant, and international speaker, I believe in combining traditional plant wisdom with science, sustainability, and innovation.
Through Ebers School of Aromatherapy, Ebers Consulting, workshops, certification programs, and international study tours, I help individuals and organizations learn, grow, and build meaningful connections through the world of plants.
At the heart of my work is a commitment to service, education, collaboration, and preserving the rich heritage of medicinal and aromatic plants for future generations.

TESTIMONIALS
Raghda is a GEM. So passionate and dedicated to getting the details right. I enjoyed a week long excursion with her and her company in EGYPT. The opportunity of a lifetime was made better by the fact that we never had to worry about anything, she took care of all the details and left us to focus on enjoying the moment. So easy to work with and communicate with her and finding out everything went seemlessly was just a bonus. I can't wait for her to set up more study trips, you definitely get more than you bargain for!
Raghda is a highly professional person who has a deep understanding of her expertise. I feel truly impressed and proud to have been guided by her on my journey to becoming an aromatherapist. She is extremely careful and dedicated when reviewing and evaluating my assignments, as well as guiding me in completing my products
I had a very good experience with Ebers School of Aromatherapy and I learned a lot! Thank you, Raghda! You are highly professional and a very compassionate person
