Firstly, thank you for finding your way here. This space is for me to share a little about myself and for you to explore and understand my ethos and offerings as a practitioner. If you feel called to connect and work with me, I can't wait to meet you.

I have over 20 years experience in the healing and wellness industry. I am a fully qualified Herbalist, Nutritionist, Energetic Healer, health expert, mentor and wellness writer. My Naturopathic philosophy is based on weaving the wisdoms of functional medicine with nutritional interventions, grassroots herbal & energetic medicines to deliver a wholesome high vibrational experience for your being. I am deeply passionate about individualised treatment approaches, empowering others to reconnect to their innate ability to heal and to rediscover the primal foundations of thriving health. I am fascinated by how incredibly multi-dimensional health can be, through my years of studies and practice I have recognised the link between dis-ease and emotions. Working with Herbal Medicine, Nutritional Medicine, Energetic Medicine along with lifestyle interventions enables me to empower clients with the practical dietary and lifestyle tools to support long-term wellness.

I have become a well known expert on gut healing protocols, getting to the core of digestive dysbiosis with digestive rebalancing and I truly believe this is the root to all balanced health. My clinical focus is primarily on nutritional reeducation, customised cleansing programs, adrenal restoration, sleep disorders, fatigue, PCOS, autoimmune conditions, immune system deficiencies, general women’s & paediatric health. I maintain a vibrant clinical practise in my Sydney oceanside clinic, Orchard St Bronte and am also available for Skype consultations.

Above all I hold a deep respect for the wellness journey each client is on and I feel deep gratitude to be able to guide clients to unearth life changing results for their health and whole being.

My qualifications include a Bachelor of Western Herbal Medicine, Advanced Diploma of Nutritional Medicine, and Diploma of Energetic Healing. 

I am excited to announce that I am currently writing a book to be published by Thames & Hudson in early 2020.

Hello dear ones, it’s me. Often seen walking away from the lens, it felt like time to check back in with y’all. It’s been an incredibly inward time around here, as I wrap up my very first book & it heads off to the printers in September (!!!!) I have so many wonderful things brewing to share with you all. Firstly let me share a little here, I keep quiet mostly & want to let you know I appreciate your presence by sharing a little more when I feel I can. Honestly between writing & my full time clinic it’s abit challenging to actually be creative! I’ve never done one of these dot points before so here goes.. - I’ve been working in the healing realms for over 21 years now. -My first modality learnt was actually Reiki - My heritage impacts me greatly, I am a truly blended mix of Russian gypsy, English, Italian, Arabic & more.. - I am married to the chillest earthy Virgo who is basically good at everything & the kindest soul I know - I was a Vegetarian at the age of 12 by conscious choice & followed that with Veganism for many years (although no longer.. can go into that another time) - I live in an old beautiful converted church, a total peaceful oasis - I have not lived in a city for 14 years, we have lived in rural wild nature scapes instead - My clinic is now completely digital! I love working this way so much - I have a greater vision in reconnecting people to the plant medicines & therefore nature - I am a double Aries with a Libran rising & I am a Generator (everyone says I’m a chill Aries though!) - I’m about to publish my very first book real soon- it’s based entirely on plant medicine in a way that I feel has not been attempted before! - I’m honored to be a mentor, this is no easy field to thrive in. Assisting others to see their gold honestly gives me great purpose & a feeling that greater healing will occur in the capable hands of you wonderful healers/ practitioners - If I could only take one herb with me on a desert island it would be chamomile (though this changes on the daily) - I do not believe in fad foods//diets//herbs// etc, I believe we are all so incredibly individualistic we must honor that no one way is the answer for us all..

Medicine making with @woodenspoonherbs🌿! Spending time in Lauren’s Appalachian paradise was such a beautiful gift on our plant safari into to the south of USA. What struck me was how here in Australia the regulations have grown so tight that there is very little room for small herbal medicine makers to thrive without jumping through incredibly expensive & narrow hoops. Connecting to the healing powers of plants in your everyday life is a beautiful invitation, weaving this in with home brews & delicious recipes is something my upcoming book covers. Reclaiming our rights to heal through nature is paramount right?! X
After a month on the road in the states in presence away from any task other than to be in nature, seek the herbs & capturing images for my upcoming book.. I returned home, to this peaceful oasis and tiny town we call home. Home feels so warm and comforting. I look back to this past month with gratitude, it’s been full of such big big things. I cannot quite articulate it all just yet! It will surely come. If I owe you a reply, I’m working through my mountainous inbox bit by bit! I will also be reopening my books to new clients shortly and creating extra mentoring spots. More on that shortly xx
I’ve been traveling wide open roads this last month, walking from the crunch of a city to the long soft grasses of green pastures and tomorrow to the vastness of the desert. Noticing the soft cycles, how the Poppies open as the sun warms, where the moss grows and the water flows, how the Nasturtiums blanket rugged canyons here in California that is a sight to behold.Through all of it, the plants have been reminding me that although I have been seeking the “medicinals” Each and everyone has its medicine. I cannot prescribe you the gentle grasses that grow so wildly, to take in a tea. But I can suggest you go lay within their loving hold, to to feel how they persist & yield & sway when the wind blows. The medicine exists in the connection. I am constantly humbled by the messages that flow through me, and you, we just need to create an exhale to inhale. With love x
