The Way of the Grove
Mossy Grove is a UK-based consultancy and digital platform provider specialising in the intersection of organisational culture, employee wellbeing, and holistic health. Founded in 2026 by Victoria Kreisson, the business addresses critical market needs across three sectors: organisational development, professional holistic health practice, and consumer natural wellness.
Victoria Kreisson
"I was once told I would never work again. A severe mental health crisis, so significant that my family were told I was unlikely to recover - but I did. Not just to survive, but to rebuild a life of purpose — a journey recognised by a Pride of Britain award (ITV, 2007), a private audience at Clarence House, a tour around 10 Downing Street, and a life shaped by a lived commitment to human-centred work.
My work brings together two often-separated worlds: holistic wellbeing and rigorous organisational practice. I'm qualified in herbalism, nutrition, aromatherapy and fitness, with experience in pharmacy and patient services. I've also led complex change from the inside - restructuring departments, creating new roles and business models, managing relocations and redundancies — and I supported 14 of 15 colleagues made redundant, many with significant barriers to employment, into new careers while navigating employee law and HR frameworks. Those outcomes came from strategy grounded in humanity.
Five years ago, my physiological health was struck. I was unexpectedly hospitalised again, having suddenly lost the ability to walk. I was discharged home and left for a year whilst developing additional symptoms whilst awaiting the diagnosis that said "there's nothing we can do" - Functional Neurological Disorder (FND.) Using my knowledge in natural health, I recovered my legs on my own. I found ways to remain working.
That period led to being awarded a CIPD Trust bursary to formalise my people practice."
Today - My guiding principles
Today I look to help employers and HR leaders close the gap between the culture they say they have and the culture their people experience - with particular expertise in retaining and developing skilled workers who are often overlooked. My work is quietly powerful: pragmatic roadmaps, rooted in wellbeing, that boost retention, reduce hidden costs and unlock potential.
My unique combination of skills and experience gives me a practical, compassionate edge when designing strategies that actually work for people.
Real, warm and yet understatedly powerful, my approach centres people first - because I've lived both sides of the problem and know what thoughtful, strategic support can achieve.
If you want an organisational culture that honours people and delivers performance, I can help you map the gap and create a practical, human-centred plan to close it. When culture is right, you don't just retain people; you unlock their full potential.
What we do...
Mossy Grove helps organisations build cultures where people—especially those with health conditions and employment barriers—don't just survive, but thrive. We do this through AI-enhanced diagnostic tools that map the whole terrain: individual capability, structural barriers, and organisational culture. Because our founder has been the vulnerable employee, the person told she'd never work again, and the HR professional navigating complex change—we understand both sides in a way no one else does.
For holistic health practitioners, we provide professional-grade tools, safety databases, and CPD-accredited training. For individuals and families, we offer trusted guidance to harness nature's wisdom safely and effectively.
We're where lived experience meets professional expertise, where nature meets science, and where human wellbeing drives organisational success.
The mission...
Our Mission is to bridge the worlds of organisational strategy and holistic wellbeing, creating tools and services that empower leaders to build healthier cultures, enable practitioners to heal with confidence, and support individuals to overcome barriers. We are guided by evidence, lived experience, and a deep connection to nature.
We do this by:
- Providing evidence-based diagnostic tools that map organisational culture and individual employment barriers
- Delivering holistic health resources, education, and professional practice support for herbalists, aromatherapists, and wellness practitioners
- Creating accessible natural wellness guidance for individuals and families
- Offering authentic content that connects nature, wellbeing, and purposeful work
- We serve organisations seeking sustainable culture transformation, professionals in holistic health fields, and individuals pursuing natural wellness for themselves and their families.
The values...
Guiding Principles:
- People First – Every individual deserves to be seen wholly: their strengths, barriers, and humanity
- Evidence + Intuition – Marrying professional frameworks with lived experience wisdom
- Nature as Foundation – Wellbeing rooted in connection to ourselves, each other, and the natural world
- Systemic Thinking – Addressing structural, cultural, and environmental factors beyond individual "fixes"
- Authentic Service – Showing up as whole selves—grounded, warm, honest, and human
The story...
The story of Mossy Grove is the personal and professional story of its founder, Victoria Kreisson. Victoria's career has been defined by a focus on people, relationships, and wellness, shaped by her own profound journey of overcoming significant health battles. Having been told she might never work again after a mental health crisis, she not only recovered but went on to win a Pride of Britain award in 2007. More recently, she retaught herself to walk after losing her mobility.
This lived experience is not a footnote to her professional expertise; it is the source of it. Her background in herbalism, nutrition, and aromatherapy is complemented by sharp-end business experience, including leading a departmental restructure that involved making 15 roles redundant. Uniquely, she went beyond the legal requirements, organising support that helped 14 of the 15 affected individuals—most with barriers to work—find new employment. This success led to a bursary from the CIPD trust to formalise her HR qualifications.
Mossy Grove was born from this tension: a heart in wellness and nature, with a mission for organisation and effective systems. Victoria is not a theorist; she has lived the hardest version of the problems she now solves. This deep, authentic understanding of the intersection between human vulnerability and organisational performance is the foundation of the company. The "Ecosystem" and "The Apothecary App" are representing the culmination of this journey and the starting point for your own Mossy Grove Experience.
