Following full-time study at the Canterbury College of Natural Medicine from 1992 until 1996, my clinical practice has evolved through continued professional development and ongoing clinical supervision.

​

Additionally, I have been mentored by world leading experts in areas such as blood chemistry analysis, functional medicine, naturopathy, genetics, hormones, autoimmune conditions, chronic fatigue, nutrigenomics, microbiome health, cancer, women's health and more.

​

This knowlege, combined with my Master Practitioner of Energy Medicine training with Dr Alberto Villoldo, helps me to understand the root of health challenges and create practical solutions that support body and mind.

​

Alongside my clinical work, I've trained and mentored other practitioners in functional medicine and diagnostic testing - sharing skills, building confidence and giving back to the profession

 

After nearly 30 years of clinical work, I am increasingly passionate about the enormous benefits & magic of using plants and food as medicine.

 

I have a strong evidence-based approach incorporating functional medicine together with the wisdom of traditional healing.

 

While I focus on physical health, I am ever mindful of the health of the psyche, family, relationships, and of how we feel in our own skin.  

 

A Mum to 2 adult daughters, I am an aficionado of yoga, hiking in the hills, cooking, books, growing herbs & vegetables and live with my husband, border collie Tui & cat Gabriel.
