My Life's Journey: From Teenage Struggles to Becoming a Naturopath

My journey is filled with challenges, transformation, and my ultimate path to becoming a naturopath.

A lifetime of experiences good and bad have made me the person I am today and I've always wanted to learn new things. Now I want to share them ALL with you.

Imagine my teenage years - a period when life should be carefree. Instead, I battled relentless stomach issues that brought excruciating pain, doubled over with cramps, and social isolation. Simply going out with friends became hard.

At the age of 19, life took a dramatic turn when I underwent surgery to remove my appendix. Little did I know that this event would set the stage for profound changes in my life.

My life's narrative shifted dramatically with the arrival of motherhood. My children became the epicenter of my world, and their well-being became my top priority.

As a mother, my first child faced challenging skin issues. He was a healthy baby until 14 months when he developed a skin rash over most of his body. After many skin Specialists, I still had no answers! I realised that conventional medicine couldn't resolve the issue. Frustrated and concerned, I embarked on a quest for alternative solution.

This quest led me to the world of naturopathy, where I discovered a holistic approach to health. It was a turning point not just for my little boys' well-being but also for my own life's journey.

In 1997 I began studying nutrition and natural health. In 2015, I completed my Bachelor of Health Science Degree in Naturopathy, and officially opened my clinical practice and role as naturopath, nutritionist and herbalist.

My study days will never end as I love to learn and share this knowledge in my clinic and workshops.

I LOVE MY CAREER!

I look forward to supporting you on your journey to wellness.
