Experience Holistic Healing

Hi, I’m Rebecca, a bachelor-trained Naturopath
With over 30 years of personal experience in self-healing and 17 years of hands-on practice as a mother navigating health challenges with my own children, my journey into naturopathy began from a place of deep curiosity and the urgent desire for answers when “dis-ease” touched both my life and the lives of my family.
Driven by an inquisitive mind, I immersed myself in the science behind health conditions and discovered the remarkable healing power of nature’s plants and herbs. Naturopathy became the cornerstone of my healing journey—offering not only logic and balance but also transformative results.

A journey to wellness, my story as a Naturopath
As a child, I was fortunate to grow up in a simpler time where nature and play were abundant, and life was a little less stressful. However, my own health challenges began early, with severe respiratory issues such as recurrent tonsillitis and bronchitis, leading to the removal of my tonsils and adenoids at just six years old.
My journey continued through the years with chronic aches and pains—initially dismissed as growing pains but later revealed to be juvenile arthritis, a condition triggered by dietary sensitivities. These experiences unveiled the deeper connection between compromised gut health and systemic inflammation, impacting multiple areas of health including digestion, hormones, mental clarity, and energy. Extreme food sensitivities further exacerbated poor gut health, setting off a cascade of conditions: from acne and low stomach HCL to SIBO, irritable bowel syndrome, eating disorders, fatigue, anxiety, HPA axis dysfunction, and disrupted sleep.
Yes, I’ve faced my fair share of challenges. Yet, each trial led to a greater understanding of the profound healing potential within—rooted in holistic care, nutrition, and lifestyle. I have come to deeply appreciate how interconnected the body, mind, and soul are, and how powerful true wellness can be.
And my journey didn’t end there. Both of my children had their own unique health journeys, teaching me invaluable lessons about resilience and holistic healing.
Supporting my children holistically
My daughter was diagnosed with autism, scoliosis, and generalised anxiety disorder at a young age. Through her experiences, I’ve learned the profound importance of nurturing mental health and emotional well-being. I have developed simple, effective approaches to support special needs children through tailored nutrition, supplementation, and emotional care.
Additionally, my son was born with three holes in his heart. Determined to explore every possible healing avenue, I delved into research, leaning on my natural inclination towards spirituality and metaphysical healing. This journey into the energetic aspects of healing revealed the body’s incredible innate ability to rejuvenate. Through mindfulness practices and deep intuition, we worked together to heal those holes—and at 14 years old, he was given the all-clear. Three holes had healed, defying the odds. This experience solidified my belief in the body’s extraordinary potential to heal when supported holistically.
Addressing the root cause of illness
Today, my passion is to guide others in rediscovering their health by addressing the root causes of illness and restoring harmony to the heart, mind, and soul. I deeply believe that true healing begins within—a reflective journey that nourishes not just the physical body, but the emotional and spiritual aspects of self. I’m here to walk alongside you every step of the way.
