Women’s health is my passion. 🤍

I’m a degree-qualified Clinical Naturopath with a special interest in women’s wellness and hormone health.

I work with women through all sorts of stages and seasons of life from puberty, right through to perimenopause and beyond.

Some of the things I commonly help with:

🤍 PMS & PMDD
🤍 Perimenopause
🤍 PCOS, PMOS, endometriosis & adenomyosis
🤍 Fertility, preconception, pregnancy & egg freezing
🤍 Hormone imbalances
🤍 Heavy, painful or irregular periods
🤍 Mood swings
🤍 Fatigue, stress & burnout
🤍 Teenage hormone health

But honestly, it’s not just about the diagnosis or the “naming” the condition.

It’s about the person sitting in front of me, how she’s feeling, what’s changed, what’s been going on in the background, and why her body might be struggling.

I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. We look at the bigger picture and work out what your body needs.

My clinic is completely online, so I can work with women across Australia and New Zealand.

If you’ve been feeling like something isn’t quite right with your hormones, but you’re not sure where to start, you’re very welcome here. 🤍

I'm all for green smoothies, supplements, Pilates and getting your morning sunshine... 😉

But sometimes I think women are being given more and more things to do when what they really need is someone to stop and ask:

Why are you feeling this way in the first place?

Why are you exhausted?

Why has your cycle changed?

Why are you waking at 3am?

Why has your PMS or period pain suddenly become unbearable?

Why are your moods all over the place and you don't feel like yourself?

Why can't you shift the weight you've never struggled with before?

That's the work I love.

Not adding another 17 things to your to-do list.

Understanding the why.

Because once we understand what's going on, we can actually work out what you need. 🤍

Women’s health has never been more confusing.

I recently had the opportunity to speak with Frankie magazine about something I see almost every day in clinic, how difficult it has become for women to know who, and what, to trust when it comes to their health.

We’re surrounded by reels, podcasts and posts telling us what we should do.

“Come off the pill.”
“Balance your hormones.”
“Heal your gut.”
“Take this supplement.”

The problem isn’t that women are looking for answers—they absolutely should.

The problem is that not all advice is created equally.

Health advice can be influenced by personal experience, sponsorships, product sales or strongly held beliefs. Personal stories can be powerful, but they don’t replace qualified, evidence-informed healthcare.

One of the biggest things I encourage my clients to ask is:

Who is giving this advice?

Are they appropriately qualified?

Is it evidence-based?

Are they educating… or selling?

As a naturopath, I also want to say something that sometimes surprises people…

I’m not anti-medication.

There are many situations where pharmaceutical treatment is appropriate and life-changing. Equally, nutrition, lifestyle and evidence-informed natural medicine can play an important role in supporting women’s health.

I’ve never believed it has to be one or the other.

I’ve always believed women deserve a team.

A GP. A specialist. A psychologist. A physiotherapist. A naturopath.

Different practitioners bring different expertise, and when we work together, women receive the best possible care.

The best healthcare isn’t about choosing sides. It’s about choosing what’s best for the woman sitting in front of you.

I’m grateful to have been part of this conversation with frankie, and I hope it encourages more women to ask questions, seek qualified advice and feel empowered to make informed decisions about their health.

Because women deserve healthcare that’s evidence-informed, compassionate and collaborative. 🤍

If I could sit down with every woman over a cup of coffee, these are the conversations I’d want us to have.

Not because I want you to overthink every symptom.

But because I wish more women understood their bodies before they were told things like, “That’s just part of being a woman.”

The truth is, our hormones influence so much more than our periods.

They affect our mood, sleep, energy, metabolism, fertility, skin, brain function and long-term health. Yet so many of us were never taught how our hormones actually work or what a healthy cycle should look like.

One of my favourite parts of being a naturopath is watching the moment everything clicks for a woman. When she finally understands why she’s been feeling the way she has, there’s often a huge sense of relief. It’s no longer a mystery, and that’s where real change can begin.

My hope is that posts like this help you feel a little more connected to your body and a little more confident to trust what it’s telling you.

Because your hormones matter.

Your symptoms matter.

And understanding your body is one of the greatest investments you can make in your health. 🤍

I’d love to know, which slide resonated with you the most?

One of the messages I receive most often is:

"I wish you lived closer."

And my answer is always the same...

You don't need to. 🤍

Three years ago, my husband and I made the move from the Macedon Ranges in regional Victoria to the Sunshine Coast, Queensland.

At the time, I wasn't sure how moving interstate would affect my practice, but one of the greatest gifts was that so many of my beautiful clients chose to continue working with me online.

It reminded me that the heart of what I do has never been about sharing the same room.

It's about listening, understanding your story, helping you make sense of your symptoms, and walking alongside you as your health improves.

Today, I have the privilege of supporting women from all over Australia and New Zealand.

Some live in busy cities. Others are in small country towns where finding someone who specialises in women's hormone health is almost impossible.

I've consulted with women on remote cattle stations, travelling Australia in caravans, sailing around the country, juggling FIFO rosters, and even while they're on holiday.
Wherever you are, we can still investigate what's going on.

We can organise testing when it's needed, review your results together, create a personalised treatment plan, and have practitioner-only supplements and herbal medicines delivered to your door.

Most importantly, you'll always see me.

I'm a small, independent practice, and I genuinely love building long-term relationships with the women I support. I know your story, I remember your goals, and I celebrate every milestone with you.

So if you've ever thought, "I wish there was someone who specialised in women's hormones where I live," I hope this post reminds you that distance doesn't have to be the reason you miss out on the support you deserve🤍

Most women who come to me have never had their cortisol properly tested.

Not because it's not important, but because a standard blood test taken at 9am gives us one number, at one moment in time. And cortisol isn't a number. It's a rhythm. And that rhythm tells us everything.

Wired at 10pm. Exhausted at 9am. Anxious for no reason. Crashing mid-afternoon. Fatigue that sleep doesn't fix.

That's not just stress. That's a cortisol rhythm that's completely out of sync. And a single blood test won't show you that.

This is why I use salivary cortisol testing to measure cortisol at four points throughout the day, alongside DHEA, to get the full picture of what your adrenals are actually doing. Not a snapshot. The whole story.

And the best part? It's done entirely at home. No needles. No clinic. Kit to your door, samples back to the lab, results interpreted in the context of everything else going on for you.

If nobody has ever actually looked at what your cortisol is doing, this might be exactly what's been missing.

DM me 'CORTISOL' if you're ready to get answers, and start feeling like you again 🤍

“I just don’t feel like myself.”

It’s the line I hear more than any other symptom, any other complaint. Bigger than a single word can capture, but it’s what so many women reach for when nothing else quite fits.

Because it’s not one thing. It’s the sum of a hundred small shifts, your patience, your memory, your energy, your sense of humour, the way you used to move through your day without thinking about it.

When that starts slipping, it doesn’t just affect your body. It touches your work, your relationships, how you show up for the people you love, even how you see yourself.

That’s why “I don’t feel like myself” isn’t a vague complaint. It’s real information. It matters.

I’ve spent years helping women reconnect with themselves through perimenopause. If you’re ready to feel like you again, reach out.

95% of women presenting to naturopaths report they are fatigued. 🤍

It's so common it's even earnt its own name...

"The Gen-X Mid-Life Energy Crisis".

And because it's so common,
it's become normalised.

Women wearing their exhaustion like a badge.
Pushing through. Getting on with it.
Assuming this is just what life feels like now.

It's not.

You might recognise this:

🤍 Exhausted but wired at night.
🤍 Anxious for no real reason.
🤍 Weight creeping on around the middle.
🤍 Brain fog that won't lift.
🤍 Mood that turns on a dime.
🤍 Tired. But can't switch off.
🤍 An afternoon crash that has you hunting down chocolate

This is what chronic cortisol elevation
is actually doing underneath the surface:

🤍 Damaging your mitochondria (your little energy stations in your cells)
🤍 Disrupting your thyroid
🤍 Driving insulin resistance
🤍 Wrecking your sleep
🤍 Increasing inflammation
🤍 Hijacking your hormones

Pushing through without support
isn't just exhausting.

It has real long term consequences.

Your body is asking for help now
not later. 🤍

Drop me a DM if this sounds like your life right now, and you're ready to feel like yourself again.

I received a virus this week. Highly inconvenient, but I know it’s building my body’s resilience, and a forced rest I probably needed. So I surrendered.

It flattened me. No voice today, no energy, nothing left in the tank. I don’t get sick often, but when I do, it’s a good one.

And it was a bit of a reality check.

Because all the things we tell people to do when they’re sick? Warm food. Soup. Garlic, turmeric, immune-boosting vegetables. Take your supplements. I couldn’t do any of it. Zero appetite. All I wanted was cold food, smoothies, dry ginger ale, juices, liquids. Anything hot was a no.

Truth is, I was burning on the inside and cold on the outside. Everyone’s constitution is different, and everyone needs a different plan. So I chucked my greens, zinc, and vitamin C in a smoothie. Immune-boosting juices. Iced tea. Still good nutrients, just rebelling against the “rules.” Swallowing tablets were a no too, but my liquid herbs and powders I could manage, so that’s what I leaned on.

Not exactly textbook. But it made something clear to me.

This is exactly why it matters who you have in your corner. A practitioner who understands you doesn’t hand you a rigid protocol and expect your body to fall in line. They adjust. They listen.

This is why I spend so much time in consults talking through the practical stuff. Powders, liquids, capsules or tablets…what will you actually take? How do you like to eat? Move? What helps you feel rested & recharged? What’s worked before, what hasn’t? No point building a perfect plan that won’t survive real life.

Mostly, I slept. A lot. I rested. I surrendered, because that’s what my body was asking for, not what the textbook said I should be doing.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Not to sickness, not to hormones, not to any of it. Listen to your body. Advocate for what works for you. Stay open to changing course when it doesn’t, there’s always another way in, one that works better for you, and it’ll still get you where you’re going.

Find someone who treats you like the individual you are. Not the protocol.

p.s special mention to my beautiful clients who I’ve rescheduled today 🌺💚

What if we’ve been telling the wrong story about perimenopause?

We talk about it like a decline. A slow leak. Something happening to you that you’re meant to grit your teeth through until it’s over.

But what if that’s the wrong metaphor?

Here’s another way to look at it: your body spent your 20s and early 30s running one hormonal program, built for monthly ovulation, built (whether you used it for this or not) around the possibility of pregnancy. That program had a job. And by your mid-to-late 30s, it starts winding down, because its job is basically done.

What replaces it isn’t nothing. It’s a recalibration. Your brain and ovaries are renegotiating the entire relationship…new signals, new rhythms, new baseline. That’s not malfunction. That’s just... a system doing something different than it used to.

The mood swings, the fog, the fatigue? Not proof that something’s broken. They’re what it feels like when a long-running internal negotiation is happening in real time, chemically, structurally, in your brain.

I’m not saying it doesn’t feel hard. It can feel genuinely disorienting, and I’m not going to pretend otherwise (I’ve been on the inside of this one myself). But there’s a difference between “my body is failing me” and “my body is doing something enormous, and nobody prepared me for it.”

One of those stories makes you feel broken.
The other makes you curious.

I’d rather be curious.

Because here’s the thing…once you understand why this is happening, so much of it stops being scary and starts being information. Information you can actually work with.

That’s the full picture. Not decline. Transition.

It’s the thing clients say most often
that understanding what’s actually happening in their body is what changed everything. Not just less symptoms, but feeling informed and back in control. Want that? Let me give you clarity, book a consultation with me, link in bio.
