Complementary Care for Neurodivergent Minds
Someone who understands your complex patterns - and has the research to help explain them
My Journey
From Pattern Recognition to Research Discovery
My path wasn't what I initially expected. After completing my Health Science degree in Naturopathy with distinction, I was eager to help others achieve wellness. What I didn't realise was that I had been navigating undiagnosed OCD for over 20 years.
The breakthrough moment: My OCD diagnosis was transformative. With conventional treatment—therapy and medication—I experienced significant relief. But my systematic mind began investigating: why did symptoms still fluctuate? What connections were others missing?
What I discovered: With the mental space created from effective treatment, I channeled my investigative nature into researching hidden mind-body connections. This exploration led to breakthrough insights about physiological patterns across neurodivergent conditions - including the dopamine-OCD connection that explains so much about recovery experiences.
Today, I support people using approaches that examine the systematic connections between physical wellbeing and mental clarity, backed by both personal investigation and professional expertise.

My Commitment to You
I believe in creating genuine partnerships where your experiences and insights are valued alongside my professional knowledge. My approach is designed to help you build resilience rather than adding to your stress.
As someone who has experienced firsthand the benefits of combining conventional treatment with complementary approaches, I'm dedicated to supporting you in discovering what works best for your unique situation.
I work collaboratively with your existing healthcare providers to ensure you receive comprehensive care that addresses both psychological and physiological aspects of your wellbeing. My goal is to help you create sustainable strategies that enhance your conventional care and support your journey toward greater peace, clarity, and wellness.
I believe that true healing comes from thoughtful integration of multiple perspectives and a deep understanding of each person's unique needs. It's deeply fulfilling to walk alongside others on their journey toward balance and empowerment, understanding both professionally and personally what that path entails.

Understanding Naturopathy
Naturopathy is a holistic approach that focuses on supporting overall wellbeing through personalised strategies. Guided by six key principles, naturopathic care aims to support the body's natural processes rather than focusing solely on individual symptoms.
My Evidence-Based Approach:
- Traditional wisdom validated through systematic investigation
- Current research that I actively analyse for mental health & neurodivergent applications
- Clinical observations from practice experience
- Personal research discoveries about OCD, Anxiety & neurodivergent patterns
This combination creates a robust foundation for support strategies designed to work alongside conventional healthcare.
