homeopath in G\u00f6teborg and Brastad since 1995, treating both acute and chronic conditions. Since 2001 she has also been rector of ArcanumSkolan \u2014 Scandinavia&#8217;s oldest school of classical homeopathy.<\/p>\n<p>Her ambition is simple and long-held: to carry classical homeopathy forward in Sweden through well-trained homeopaths, to hold the school&#8217;s programmes to a rigorous, state-quality standard, and to keep research alive within the field she teaches.<\/p>\n\n<h2>A rare double life in one craft<\/h2>\n<p>Most practitioners treat, or they teach. Birgitta does both \u2014 and each makes the other sharper. In the consulting room she treats patients gently and personally, with a full patient-liability insurance behind every case. In the classroom she trains the next generation of classical homeopaths, iridologists and sclerologists, using a curriculum aligned to the guidelines of the European Central Council of Homeopaths (ECCH).<\/p>\n<p>She is also a certified instructor in iris diagnostics for the International Iridology Practitioners Association (IIPA), and the Swedish point of contact for Radar Opus \u2014 the professional repertory software homeopaths rely on to find the right remedy.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Trained across four countries, over three decades<\/h2>\n<p>Birgitta came to homeopathy through teaching. A Bachelor of Education from Karlstad University in 1985 gave her the foundation that still shapes how she trains others. From there her homeopathic education deepened steadily: a diploma from the British Institute of Homeopathy and medical basics at Uppsala&#8217;s Biomedical Centre in 1996, a three-year Nordic training, then a second three-year classical-homeopathy programme at the International School for Classical Homeopathy in Belgium in 2003, and a Master of Science in Homeopathy from the University of Central Lancashire, England, in 2011.<\/p>\n<p>She has continued at the advanced edge of the field, studying twice with Jeremy Sherr on the Dynamis post-graduate course \u2014 in Stroud, England and in Sweden \u2014 and adding training in sclerology, ear acupuncture and hypnosis along the way.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"cvbox\">\n<h3>Education &amp; credentials<\/h3>\n<div class=\"cvrow\"><span class=\"y\">2016<\/span><span class=\"d\">Dynamis post-graduate course with Jeremy Sherr \u2014 Sweden<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"cvrow\"><span class=\"y\">2013<\/span><span class=\"d\">Dynamis post-graduate course with Jeremy Sherr \u2014 Stroud, England<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"cvrow\"><span class=\"y\">2011<\/span><span class=\"d\">Master of Science (MSc) in Homeopathy \u2014 University of Central Lancashire, England<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"cvrow\"><span class=\"y\">2005<\/span><span class=\"d\">Certified Master Practitioner &amp; Practitioner of NLP \u2014 Coach2coach Academy<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"cvrow\"><span class=\"y\">2003<\/span><span class=\"d\">Three-year training in classical homeopathy \u2014 International School for Classical Homeopathy, Belgium<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"cvrow\"><span class=\"y\">1999<\/span><span class=\"d\">Three-year training in classical homeopathy \u2014 Nordic Academy of Classical Homeopathy (NAKH)<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"cvrow\"><span class=\"y\">1996<\/span><span class=\"d\">D.I.Hom, British Institute of Homeopathy \u00b7 Medical basics, Uppsala BMC \u00b7 Gestalt therapy, GIS-Sweden<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"cvrow\"><span class=\"y\">1985<\/span><span class=\"d\">Bachelor of Education (BEd) \u2014 Karlstad University<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2>Also trained in<\/h2>\n<div class=\"chips\">\n<span class=\"chip\">Classical homeopathy<\/span>\n<span class=\"chip\">Iridology (IIPA instructor)<\/span>\n<span class=\"chip\">Sclerology<\/span>\n<span class=\"chip\">Basic medical science<\/span>\n<span class=\"chip\">Ear acupuncture<\/span>\n<span class=\"chip\">Hypnosis<\/span>\n<span class=\"chip\">NLP (Master Practitioner)<\/span>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2>Why classical homeopathy<\/h2>\n<p>Rightly used, classical homeopathy is a medical form of treatment entirely without side effects. It treats the whole person rather than an isolated symptom \u2014 which is why the consultation matters as much as the remedy. That belief, held over thirty years, is what Birgitta practises with patients and passes on to every student who trains with her.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<section class=\"cta\"><div class=\"wrap\">\n<h2>Work with Birgitta<\/h2>\n<p>Book a consultation at the clinic, or begin your own training at ArcanumSkolan.<\/p>\n<div style=\"display:flex;gap:12px;justify-content:center;flex-wrap:wrap\">\n<a class=\"btn\" href=\"https:\/\/www.borago-homeopati.se\/kontakt\">Book a consultation<\/a>\n<a class=\"btn\" style=\"background:transparent;border:1.5px solid rgba(255,255,255,.5);color:#fff\" href=\"https:\/\/arcanum-homeopati.se\/anmalan\/\">Enrol at ArcanumSkolan<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Birgitta Williams AboutClinicSchoolLinks About The practitioner, the teacher, the person.
