Zoe is a naturopath and herbal educator who takes a compassionate, holistic approach to health. She works with men and women, helping them navigate their health concerns and uncover the root causes of imbalance. Her focus is not just on symptom relief but on understanding the bigger picture—how diet, lifestyle, environment, emotional wellbeing, and even spiritual health contribute to overall wellness. She believes that optimum health comes from addressing the whole person, not just isolated symptoms. Zoe supports people with a wide range of health conditions, including chronic diseases, autoimmune disorders, gut health issues, food intolerances, mental health, neurodivergence, hormonal imbalances, thyroid disorders, sexual health, pain, and fatigue. However Zoe's passion is particularly in women's health, pre-conception, fertility and recurrent pregnacy loss (RPL). She works with couples looking to understand why they haven't been able to conceive, or why RPL is occuring, to uncover the root cause. Using an evidence-based approach, she combines the latest research with traditional wisdom, utilising herbal medicine, targeted natural supplements, and dietary and lifestyle adjustments to support the body’s innate ability to heal. When needed, she offers functional testing to identify underlying imbalances and provide a clearer path forward. Beyond her clinical work, Zoe is passionate about education, believing that knowledge is power. She teaches wild food and medicine foraging, and herbal alchemy workshops including herbal preparations and food as medicine. Her goal is to help people not only take control of their health but also reconnect with nature and the plants that have been used as medicine for centuries. She sees this connection as vital—not only for personal wellbeing but for fostering a deeper respect for the natural world. Sustainability and ethical sourcing are at the core of her practice. She values integrity, and a deep reverence for the Earth, ensuring that herbs and natural resources are used responsibly. Her philosophy follows the ethos of taking no more than what is given in return. Her love and connection to nature since a child has instilled a spiritual connection with Mother Earth and the magic and wisdom it provides, particularly through working with plant medicine. After struggling with gut, skin, mood and hormone challenges for most of her life, Zoe discovered the transformative power of food and herbal medicine. Her personal journey with fertility and miscarriage has deeply shaped her perspective on women's health, and the need for further compassionate and integrative support, particularly through loss of a baby. This personal experience fuels her dedication to helping others find their own path to wellness—one that is realistic, achievable, and deeply connected to the wisdom of nature.

Let’s connect the dots together so you can start feeling like yourself again. The Balance – Energetic Healing Sessions Alongside her clinical naturopathic practice, Katie also offers The Balance, a gentle energetic healing session designed to help restore harmony within the body, mind, and nervous system. This work supports people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or energetically out of alignment and are seeking a deeper sense of calm, clarity, and flow in their lives. During a Balance session, muscle testing is used to identify energetic imbalances within the body’s meridian system. These imbalances are connected with sacred numerical patterns that reflect areas where energy may be blocked or out of balance. Once identified, specific energetic corrections are applied to help restore balance and support the body’s natural ability to regulate and heal. Clients lie comfortably on a treatment table while the balancing work is performed. Many people naturally enter a deeply relaxed or meditative state during this process. After a session, clients commonly report: • Deep nervous system relaxation • Emotional release or clarity • Improved focus and decision making • A sense of energetic lightness • Feeling that life begins to flow more easily Each Balance session works with what the body and energy system are ready to shift at that time. Sessions typically run for approximately 60 minutes. Distance (Surrogate) Balance Sessions For clients who are not local, The Balance can also be performed remotely using a surrogate session. In this process, another person acts as the physical body for muscle testing while the session is energetically tuned to the client. The balancing work is directed toward the client regardless of where they are located. Once your session is booked: You will receive a message when the session is about to begin. If possible, take this time to rest, relax, or meditate. The Balance session will be completed remotely. After the session, you will receive a message and a short follow-up summary. Many clients report experiencing similar shifts and relaxation with surrogate sessions as they do with in-person sessions. Suggested Starting Point For most people it is recommended to begin with two Balance sessions, with the second session occurring approximately one week after the first. This allows the body time to integrate the initial corrections and deepen the balancing process. Further sessions can then be scheduled depending on your goals and what arises during the work. Important Note The Balance is an energetic healing modality designed to support wellbeing and personal development. It is not intended to replace medical or psychological care where required.
