I’m a Naturopath and GAPS Practitioner with over 22 years of experience, specialising in gut health and its impact on the rest of the body — particularly skin health, food intolerances, and immune function. My interest in digestive health grew out of my own experience. I lived with long-term fatigue and health issues that worsened after the birth of my son. I was eventually diagnosed with autoimmune low thyroid function, linked to increased intestinal permeability (commonly referred to as "leaky gut"). I now support my digestion as part of managing my health — a challenge that’s given me firsthand insight into how difficult dietary changes can be in real life. Because of this, I go beyond identifying the underlying cause in my clinical work. I provide practical support — including recipes and strategies for gut health while managing food sensitivities. I aim to make dietary changes feel realistic and sustainable. I hold a Bachelor of Health Science (Complementary Medicine), an Advanced Diploma of Health Science (Naturopathy), a Diploma of Health in Nutrition, a Diploma of Health in Herbal Medicine and I am a certified GAPS practitioner. Alongside clinic work, I’ve worked in the health food industry and have provided education to pharmacy assistants, fellow practitioners, and the general public across Australia.

Pip Reed — Women's Health Clinical Nutritionist I specialise in women's hormone health through advanced functional testing that finds the root cause of why your body isn't responding. Most of the women I work with have been told their results are normal. They've tried everything. And they're still exhausted, inflamed, and unable to shift weight. The problem was never effort. It was that nobody had looked at the full picture. I investigate. I test. I connect the dots. My clinical focus includes hormone imbalance, weight resistance, endometriosis, PCOS, uterine fibroids, perimenopause, menopause, infertility, thyroid disorders, chronic stress and burnout, gut dysfunction, histamine intolerance, mast cell activation, mental health, acne and chronic inflammation. Every client starts with a Clinical Case Review — a private session where I review your full history, symptoms and test results together, identify what's actually driving how you feel, and map exactly what I'd do about it. You leave with clarity and a plan. I have been a registered clinical nutritionist for 15 years. I hold an Advanced Diploma in Nutritional Medicine and a Bachelor of Business, and I am a current member of the Australian Natural Therapists Association (ANTA) and the International Association of Corneotherapy (IAC). I consult worldwide via online video and phone. Featured in Marie Claire, Elle, OK!, NW, Wellness By Design, Get Me Glow, Channel Ten News and Triple J.
