Banksia Naturopathy is rooted in the belief that you deserve the time and space to feel truly heard. I’m Sarah, a qualified clinical naturopath with a special interest in acne and skin health. I look beyond what is happening on the skin, taking the time to learn about you, your health history and the different things that may be contributing to your acne. This might include digestion, hormones, stress, sleep, nutrition and the rhythms of your everyday life. Having experienced acne myself, I know it can affect far more than your skin. It can shape your confidence, the way you see yourself and how comfortable you feel moving through the world. My consultations offer space to talk openly about what has been happening, what you have already tried and where you would like to go from here. My approach is practical and personal, with recommendations made to suit your health, your needs and your life. I want you to leave each consultation with a clearer understanding of your body and skin.

Hi I’m Stephanie Malouf and I’m dedicated to helping people create healthy relationships with food in order to live a healthy and happy life. Whether it be after years of forming bad eating habits or establishing good ones early on in life. After healing my own body through diet and experiencing first hand the incredible healing powers of food, it wanted to educate others on how to do the same. This led me to completing a Bachelor of Health Science; Nutritional Medicine and setting up my own private practice. Having worked with hundreds of clients particularly with weight loss, I have come to understand there are two key parts to having a healthy relationship with food; education and a healthy relationship with yourself with a positive mindset. Food is one life’s greatest pleasures and whilst this can be a positive thing, it can also be used to fill a void and as a distraction from less pleasurable emotions. Your physical health is a direct reflection of how you think, feel and nourish yourself. I have undertaken further studies in the field of psychology in order to help my clients achieve a positive mindset, overcome limiting beliefs and break negative habits. This is often the missing link to an effective long term weight loss and health program and a key driver of stress and emotional eating as well as poor digestion, energy and chronic health issues.

I am a degree-qualified Naturopath with a Bachelor of Health Science (Naturopathy) from Endeavour College of Natural Health and over five years of clinical experience helping patients achieve sustainable improvements in their health and wellbeing. As a qualified Metabolic Balance Practitioner, I have a particular interest in weight management, metabolism, hormonal health, digestive health, and supporting patients through personalised nutrition and lifestyle strategies. I am passionate about functional testing and firmly believe in the principle of "test, don't guess," using appropriate investigations to identify the underlying drivers of symptoms and create targeted treatment plans. My approach centres on restoring the fundamental pillars of health — nutrition, sleep, stress management, movement, and lifestyle. I believe that when these foundations are optimised, the body is often able to achieve remarkable improvements in health and vitality. I also believe in keeping treatment simple and purposeful. Rather than overprescribing supplements, I prefer to focus on addressing the root cause of health concerns and prescribing only one or two key supplements where appropriate. This allows both practitioner and patient to clearly assess what is working while avoiding unnecessary complexity and expense. I strive to provide practical, evidence-informed, and compassionate care that empowers patients to understand their bodies, take control of their health, and achieve long-term, sustainable results.
