How I can help…
Dietary advice
We’ll go beyond one-size-fits-all approaches to evaluate and incorporate dietary adjustments that are both science-based and uniquely suited to your body type, lifestyle, and health goals.
Dietary advice isn’t about restriction or the latest fad — it’s about nourishing your body in ways that support lasting balance and wellbeing.
Nutritional & herbal therapy
Nutritional science and traditional herbal wisdom combine to provide powerful, evidence-based support in harmony with your body’s needs.
I’ll recommend practitioner-grade supplements and herbal medicines designed to target underlying imbalances — from hormonal and metabolic challenges to stress, inflammation, and sleep quality.
Functional testing
In-depth functional pathology testing reveals what’s happening beneath the surface — from your gut microbiome to hormones and metabolism.
I partner with trusted Australian and international laboratories to provide clear, actionable insights that guide truly personalised care.

Lifestyle coaching
Lasting health comes from consistent daily habits.
Together we’ll identify patterns that may be holding you back and design a realistic plan to help you restore balance, energy, and resilience.
Whether you’re seeking more focus, better sleep, or a calmer mind — small, meaningful changes can transform your wellbeing.
