She is married and has three grown children, four step-children and seven grandchildren.

In 1988 Dr. Herring completed her doctorate from Bastyr University in Seattle and then moved to New Hampshire to begin her practice. As president of the New Hampshire Association of Naturopathic Doctors she helped to carry forward the process of attaining licensure for Naturopathic Doctors in New Hampshire.

Dr. Herring is certified as a Classical Homeopath by two organizations: the Homeopathic Academy of Naturopathic Physicians (DHANP), which credentials Homeopathic medicine within the naturopathic profession, and the Council for Homeopathic Certification (CCH) which is a competency certification that encompasses all types of healthcare providers who practice homeopathy, such as medical doctors, chiropractors, and naturopathic doctors.
