I am here every step of the way in your journey to a new, healthier you.
Perimenopause
Are you experiencing changes in your 40s and feeling unlike yourself? Do you notice shifts in your menstrual cycles, such as irregularity or heaviness? Are mood swings making you feel out of control? Perimenopause, a natural phase characterised by hormonal fluctuations, which often occurs in our 40s. As an expert in this field, I specialise in providing support during this transition, including for ladies who are using Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). Discover effective tools and habits to navigate perimenopause with ease and reclaim control over your well-being
Our in depth testing and analysis will help identify underlying conditions which may be contributing to how you are feeling on top of the peri-menopause transition.
Detoxification & Gut health
Unlock Optimal Wellness Through Gut Health: The cornerstone of overall well-being lies in the health of our gut. Serving as the gateway to every other system in the body, a balanced gut is essential for maintaining vitality and harmony.
Symptoms commonly associated with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), such as bloating, constipation, diarrhea, pain, gas, and reflux, often indicate underlying issues within the gut. In our intake consultation, I meticulously assess your unique case to identify the root cause and tailor a personalised plan specifically for you.
We may use testing and analysis to understand exactly what is happening in the gut microbiome
Fertility
"Embark on a Gentle Journey to Fertility with Functional Nutrition.

Autoimmunity
Autoimmunity is not just a condition; it's a manifestation of an immune system in disarray. Rooted in complex interplays within the body, it often involves factors such as compromised gut health, underlying infections, food sensitivities, and toxin exposure.
At Functional Nutritionist, we understand the multifaceted nature of autoimmunity and offer comprehensive support to address its underlying causes and symptoms. Our holistic approach delves deep into your body's intricate systems to identify and tackle the root imbalances driving your condition.
We specialise in treating a range of autoimmune disorders, including alopecia, celiac disease, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Graves' disease, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), lupus, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and providing support for individuals with type 1 diabetes.
Through personalised treatment plans tailored to your unique needs, we aim to rebalance your immune system, restore harmony to your body, and empower you to reclaim control over your health and well-being.
Puberty
Guiding Girls Through the Natural Transition of Puberty
Puberty marks a significant milestone in every girl's life—a journey of transformation both physically and emotionally. However, this natural transition can often come with its own set of challenges, including acne, heavy periods, and menstrual pain.
At Functional Nutritionist, we specialise in offering holistic support to girls navigating through puberty. Our approach is rooted in understanding and addressing the unique needs and concerns of young women during this transformative time.
We provide comprehensive care, addressing common symptoms such as acne, heavy periods, and menstrual pain through natural and holistic interventions. Our goal is to empower girls with the knowledge and tools they need to navigate puberty with confidence and ease.
In addition to addressing physical symptoms, we also offer guidance on contraception options, including safe alternatives such as Fertility Awareness Method (FAM), barrier methods, and technological devices. We believe in fostering informed decision-making and empowering girls to make choices that align with their values and preferences.
With compassionate care and personalised support, we aim to ensure that every girl feels empowered and supported as she embarks on this journey of self-discovery and growth."
Thyroid Health
Nurturing Thyroid Health for Optimal Well-Being.
The thyroid gland plays a crucial role in regulating metabolism, energy levels, and overall well-being. When this delicate balance is disrupted, it can lead to a range of symptoms and health concerns.
At Functional Nutritionist, we specialise in providing comprehensive support for thyroid health. Our approach is grounded in understanding the intricate complexities of thyroid function and addressing the underlying factors contributing to imbalance.
Whether you're struggling with hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Graves' disease or cellular hypothyroidism, we are here to offer personalised care tailored to your unique needs.
We understand that many individuals with thyroid conditions may be on medication to manage their symptoms. Our holistic approach takes into account all aspects of thyroid health, including supporting those on thyroid medication to optimise their treatment outcomes.
Our goal is to empower you with the knowledge and tools you need to take control of your thyroid health and live your life to the fullest.
I offer the convenience of both Telehealth appointments and face-to-face consultations to accommodate your preferences and busy schedule.
Whether you prefer the comfort of your own home or the personal interaction of an in-person visit, I am here to provide you with the support and care you need.
Telehealth appointments offer the flexibility to connect from anywhere, allowing you to access quality care without the need to travel. Alternatively, if you prefer a more traditional approach, I welcome you to visit me in person for a face-to-face consultation at the Ministry of Skin in Torquay, Victoria.
