I work closely with healthcare teams to create clear, achievable plans that meet clients where they are and help them move forward. Whether it’s rebuilding a relationship with food, managing chronic health challenges, or optimising daily wellbeing, my goal is simple: to empower individuals with the tools they need to create real, lasting change.

The fundamental philosophy for Circle of Health is that all people should have the opportunity to live long, healthy lives. What I have learnt from my studies, life experiences and noticing gaps in the education of young adults aged 20 to 30 years, this business initiative has been developed to empower them to be manage their own health and wellbeing and establish preventative health practices with a commitment to sharing and providing education, information, strategies and motivation to improve their health and food choices to achieve optimal health and wellbeing. Circle of Health offers online consultation sessions to create a comprehensive health assessment and the development of a personalised treatment plan that considers the client's unique needs and supports their overall health and nutrition-related goals. Experiencing ongoing health issues from early childhood and growing up in a rural community on my grandparent's property provided an environment for healthy living, implementing sustainable and ethical practices with the farm to table process and in later life when I moved to the city, discovering the benefits of healthy dietary practices, exercise and lifestyle strategies recommended by Clinical Nutritionists, Dietitians and other holistic health professionals which ultimately led to the decision to study the Bachelor of Health Science (Nutritional and Dietetic Medicine).

Many years ago my father was unwell after seeing the results of natural medicine on him i got interested. I did general nursing but could not complete due to sever concussion after a car accident. Being unable to finish my final certification in nursing i sort help from natural medicine. In 1973 qualified as a Naturopath in New Zealand, I moved to Australia and complete a homoeopathic course from UK. I became an Osteopath but to be allowed to practice i had to complete a second Naturopathic Diploma to be able to practice in Australia. Then compulsory registration for Chiropractors happened. There was no Government Osteopathic registration in Australia at that time. So i did more studies to be a chiropractor in order to practice manipulation. Went on to become a herbalist, An other advanced studies in Anti-aging Medicine.
