By trade I am a Clinical Naturopath’, and my areas of specialisation are
Mental Health, Chronic and Adrenal Fatigue,
and Children’s Health.
My work draws from years of experience across Herbal Medicine, Functional Nutrition, Life Coaching, movement, and trauma-informed care.
Over the past two decades, I’ve had the privilege of supporting thousands of people in reshaping both their mental and physical health — drawing on a carefully integrated blend of tools and modalities I’ve developed and refined along the way.
My path began early, working within naturopathic clinics and alongside herbal medicine from the age of thirteen, where what started as work experience quickly became something much more.
I was trained by old-school naturopathic mentors, grounded in the true traditions of herbalism — remedy preparation, deep observation, and the foundational principles of holistic medicine and detoxification. I then went on to complete my formal qualifications (graduating in 2003), where i learned the scientific scaffolding of modern-day Health Science.
Now, with over 23 years of clinical experience and continued postgraduate study, my work brings all of this together in a way that is both deeply effective and intentionally simplified — creating meaningful change without overwhelm.

About Natural Body Lab
'If in doubt
take it back to the way nature intended'
- 01. Using Food as Medicine Rather than viewing food as just fuel, Functional Nutrition sees food as information that directly influences hormones, brain & gut function, inflammation, and energy systems. By using Food as Medicine for your body’s physiological needs we can gently correct imbalances, support healing, and create lifelong strategies which can be easily incorporated into your everyday routine.
- 02. Functional Testing At Natural Body Lab we use Functional Testing to take the guesswork out and look beyond surface symptoms. Using targeted, evidence-based tests, we assess areas like gut health, hormones, nutrient status, and inflammation to uncover the root causes of imbalance.
We use this deeper insight to create a precise and personalised roadmap that will support your body back to optimal health.
