I am a Naturopath with a passion! To do what I love and to help people, to widen their eyes to Natural Medicine, that it can help them improve their health and wellbeing. For example you don’t just have to go to the doctor and take antibiotics, you can build up your immune system.
I studied Advanced Diploma of Naturopathy, Diploma of Nutrition and Diploma of Remedial Massage. I have worked and raised 2 kids while also studying for my Bachelor of Health Science (Complementary Medicine). I have worked at the Fountain Centre for 4 years as a practitioner and including 2 years on the front desk helping.
Not long after, I opened Green Door Health, a multi-disciplinary natural therapies clinic in Elanora Heights on the Northern Beaches of Sydney. This has been very popular and something I love to do. I now offer a custom herb mixing service option available via online booking or walk in over the counter.
I have been lecturing at Endeavour College of Natural Medicine on their Health Science Degree Programs in Naturopathy & Nutritional Medicine. This is something I enjoy: teaching, interacting and learning from the next generation of practitioners!
I understand the pressures modern families are under and understand that they need access to excellent preventative health care. I am passionate about Children’s Health especially Eczema, Allergies, Food Intolerances, Sleep Issues, Behavioural Concerns, Fussy eaters, Digestive Complaints and Skin Conditions.

Let’s talk about skin, joint and bone health! Collagen is an important structural protein which makes up almost 30% of our total body protein (and 20% of our total bone mass, 95% of bone matrix and 80% of skin). Because of its special structure it acts like a ‘rope’ adding stability to our bodies with the strength of steel.
Have you heard about the Sunshine Vitamin aka vitamin D? Unfortunately, for many of us, during the winter months when we don’t get as much sun, we can become deficient. In fact, up to 30-50% of us could be deficient – especially in winter.
