As a Naturopath, I help women to feel calm, hormonally balanced and re-energized because this is my passion, my own story and journey and I know that I can help you too as a result.
Growing up in England I had a lucky lifestyle. I had a loving family, great education and very happy memories. As I grew into my late teens however, I became a typical party girl at University, while studying my first degree in English Literature, and filled my body with a toxic cocktail of binge drinking, refined carbohydrates and sleep deprivation. I was unfit and overweight, my skin was congested and my hormones were all over the place. By my early twenties I wanted to lose weight, and I was sucked into avoiding eating fat, living on bread, drinking diet drinks to fill me up; I constantly felt deprived and losing weight was a real struggle. Enter a huge emotional stress and the perfect storm was created and anxiety and panic attacks began to control me. Innately wanting to avoid medication I started to explore natural medicine alternatives for the first time while backpacking in Australia and it was here that my life dramatically changed course. Spurred on by the success I had with the flower essences and simple herbs I was using I also realised that everything that I put in my body had an effect on it, both positive and negative. I started to change how I was eating and how I was living and harnessed the incredible healing power of nature through natural medicines and the anxiety vanished, to be replaced by a burning desire to study Naturopathy and help others achieve positive, healthy change.
Qualified as a Naturopath, Nutritionist and Herbalist since 2007, I am now a busy mum of two running a thriving natural medicine clinic in Margaret River in Australia’s beautiful South-West, where I have the great privilege of helping others to overcome their health challenges and work towards their health goals. I know only too well how challenging life can be, as through my thirties I battled a diagnosis of the autoimmune Hashimoto’s thyroid disease, infertility and insomnia issues, through this learning how stress management is arguably one of the most effective health tools we can harness. In 2018 I trained to become an advanced practitioner in the functional management of hormonal conditions in men and women. I work closely with both local GPs and Integrative GPs.
In my clinic I use both nutritional and herbal medicine, lifestyle changes and supportive regular coaching to formulate individualised treatment plans for my one-on-one patients to support them through their health journeys, and I have also accumulated my experience, knowledge and creativity in my online health programs. I have written two eBooks on how to improve children’s health and I am also a trained primary school teacher. I am a member of the professional association the Australian Traditional Medicine Society, fully insured and and I offer both face-to-face or remote Skype/FaceTime appointments.
