PRACTICE PHILOSOPHY
I believe that everyone has the right to access diversity-friendly health care; in a safe, supportive & evidence-based environment. I have been in the health industry for over 6 years, and have witnessed first & second-hand how both the mainstream & alternative health medical models do not address & cater for all demographics within our community.
As Naturopathy is holistic in nature, it understands that physical, emotional, spiritual, & environmental factors influence our overall health & wellbeing. My goal as a Naturopath is to:
1) Use traditional, but mostly evidence-based medicine to get the most up to date and substantiated health care
2) Use an integrative approach to gain a more in-depth understanding of an individual & create a supportive practitioner network where necessary
3) Maximise long-term health outcomes by using individualised naturopathic treatment plans
4) Provide a space & service that works to support the health of those experiencing oppression due to patriarchal values our society upholds.

SPECIAL INTERESTS
As mentioned, I have a passion for working with LGBTIQA+ & Sex Worker Communities. Areas in which I can help include: reproductive health, sexual health, hormonal health, transition support, post-op care, preconception care, fertility, IVF Support, & general family health. As well as this, I also have a keen interest in working with individuals experiencing gastrointestinal disturbances & complaints (including IBS & SIBO), anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, sleep disturbances, cardiovascular disease, & thyroid conditions. I am enthusiastic about understanding each client’s individual health picture, and getting to the underlying cause(s) of their condition(s) so I can support & educate them towards long-term positive health outcomes.
