At this point, no state has licensing guidelines for herbalists. You should be able to give herbs to anyone based on a TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) diagnosis. What you cannot do is to diagnose using a Western named disease. For example you cannot treat diabetes, but can give herbs to treat a systemic imbalance of excessive heat in the middle burner.
