It’s mostly about you, but here’s a bit about us.
We’re all about re-introducing you to you. It’s about seeing you as a whole person, because you’re so much more than your symptoms.
We focus on the stories behind those symptoms and create a safe space for practical, down-to-earth advice using evidence-based practices.
Our practitioners work collaboratively so you get the best care that is specific to your needs. Along your New Leaf journey, you may see all our practitioners at different times or just one of them; it depends on what you need.
Most people find us after trying a few things that didn’t quite stick. Here’s what working with New Leaf actually looks like, from wherever you are in Australia.
You booked for a reason, so that’s where we begin. We’ll look at the bigger picture of your health, but we won’t lose sight of the thing that brought you to us. And we’ll keep checking back on it.
No diet culture here. We focus on what to add to your plate rather than what to cut, and your food plan is built around your preferences, budget and culture. If a short-term change is clinically needed, we’ll explain why and for how long.
A treatment plan is only useful if it fits your real life. Ours are clear, prioritised and realistic. Think a few changes at a time, not a twelve-page overhaul. If something isn’t working for you, tell us and we’ll change it.
We’re qualified practitioners, not influencers. No quick fixes, no judgment, just honest conversations and practical advice.
You won’t leave with a cupboard full of bottles. When we prescribe herbs or supplements, we choose them for your situation, explain why each one is there, and review whether you still need it.
We work with your existing health team, not around them. We’ll read your results, share information with your GP when you want us to, and tell you plainly when something needs medical care. You always make the final call.
Waiting rooms aren’t easy for everyone. Seeing us from home can make it simpler to show up, whether you’re neurodivergent, managing a chronic condition, caring for others or living a long way from a clinic. All genders, sexualities, bodies and backgrounds are welcome here.
We draw on current research and centuries of traditional herbal knowledge, and we’re honest about where the evidence is strong and where it’s still emerging. You’ll always know why we’re recommending something.

We’re Everywhere – Virtually
We can see you and hear you from right where you are. Thanks to telehealth, your location is no barrier to getting on your whole health journey.
A naturopath is a highly trained health practitioner with qualifications in herbal medicine and clinical nutrition. They treat each patient individually and address the underlying cause of disease as well as its symptoms.
Well, yes, and of course, no… we prescribe a lot of them. If you take herbs, they’ll be especially designed for your needs. We create bespoke herbal remedies from our dispensary, which contains over 120 different herbal tinctures
Our practitioners will explore every detail of your health concerns and all aspects of your health and its history. Treatments may include nutritional and herbal medicine, lifestyle and food recommendations.
Sure, sometimes we will advise meditation, but not for everyone. Really, it depends.
This isn’t cookie-cutter health. It’s about looking at what you have on your plate at this moment and figuring out how we can make life easier, not more complicated. We aim to arm you with practical and realistic tools that you can integrate into your existing life – sometimes meditation is part of that, or part of the end goal – but it’s all part of a larger health journey.
Initial appointments are $279. You can read more about our appointment types here.
Your initial appointment will be 90 minutes – because of the level of detail we go into, we can’t make them any shorter. Ongoing appointments will be between 30-60 minutes. It’s important that you arrive on time to get the most of your allocated slot.
How do I prepare for my appointment?
In your welcome email, you’ll receive your telehealth link – just click it and go.
If you have trouble connecting, we’ll know pretty quickly and have backup solutions ready to go to get our appointment started on time. Please get comfy, have a good internet connection, a fully charged battery and quiet surrounds so we can hear you clearly. We like you to be in a private space, not walking or driving – set yourself up with a cup of tea, a notepad and pen, and let’s begin.
Bring yourself – all of it. We want to know all about you.
We’ll ask you to fill out your new patient form as soon as you get your welcome letter. We’ll also ask you to scan and email any pathology or medical results as a PDF as soon as possible. Note: please send us any updated results at least two days before your appointment to ensure we have time to review it before we chat.
Yes, in 2026, Private Health rebates for Naturopathy and Western Herbal Medicine have been reinstated.
We can now process claims for the following insurers:
Rebates depend on your level of extras cover, so it’s worth a quick check with your fund to see what you’re entitled to
We only offer telehealth. All of our appointments are done online via our secure telehealth system. We’ll let you know when we can offer face-to-face consultations again, but we promise that TeleHealth works just as well as IRL.
We choose only the best quality herbs available in Australia. We opt for organic and wildcrafted where possible, and ensure that the herbs we choose are sustainably sourced. We’ll never use endangered species, or herbs that are heading that way.
Like many medicines, herbal medicines are only safe if used correctly.
As professionally trained herbalists, we are qualified to formulate and prescribe herbal medicines for our patients. Each prescription considers your presenting symptoms, your underlying conditions, and any contraindications with medication or other supplements you may be taking. Herbal medicine is really the people’s medicine, but it should be prescribed by a professional to ensure therapeutic and positive results.
First thing: stop all the medicines you’re taking, and assess whether you need medical assistance.
Reactions to herbal medicine and supplements are rare, but not impossible. We all react differently to things.
Secondly, please get in touch with us as soon as possible so we can assist you and help you feel better quickly.
You can contact the clinic to ask a few questions before your appointment. We suggest having a good read of our website as it really does sum out what we’re about. We are not available for pre-consult chats, as we are often seeing clients.
Yes – please do – our booking system is easy to use, and our website is awesome (if we do say so ourselves). You’ll be asked to pay for your appointment at the time of booking via our secure payment system. Once you book, you’ll receive all the information you need for your appointment including new patient forms and a telehealth link.
We have experience in treating a variety of conditions. Our extensive training and ongoing education ensure that she has a deep understanding of the human body. When it comes to hormone health, mental health, fertility and preconception, autoimmunity or digestive health, you can be confident in the fact that we have most likely worked with similar patients before.
Please contact the clinic to move or cancel your appointment. If you’ve prepaid and need a refund, this will be arranged as well. We just ask for as much notice as possible if you need to change any bookings to ensure that we can let the next person on the waitlist know.
Our booking T&Cs means you need to tell us 24 hours before your appointment if you can’t make it. You may be asked to pay for the full cost of your appointment if you cancel with little notice or do not arrive at your appointment. We understand that life happens, and always consider your individual situation.
A puggle! Who doesn’t love platypus? Platypi? We’ve never seen baby ones, but always see platypus at our favourite secret camp spot on the Turon River.
