In a naturopathic consultation, Tess is able to take the time to listen so you are truly heard and your needs can be met. While you may feel you have a million things going on in your body, naturopathy helps put the pieces of your health puzzle together. With proper clinical case taking, and testing where needed, the cause of your array of symptoms can be found. Nutritional supplementation, herbal medicine, dietary and lifestyle advice is then used to bring you back to health

Women’s Health and Longevity

At every stage of life, women deserve health care that sees the whole picture—not just isolated symptoms. My women’s health services support everything from cycle concerns (PMS, PMDD, endometriosis, irregular or heavy periods) to hormone transitions like perimenopause and menopause. I also work with energy, mood, metabolism, and sexual health, because these are deeply connected to how women feel in their bodies every day. With a blend of naturopathic medicine, nutrition, nervous system support, and personalised care, I help women move from confusion and frustration to clarity and confidence—so they can feel at home in their bodies again.

Fertility and preconception care

Fertility struggles affect 1 in 6 couples and you do not have to navigate your troubles alone. Tess works with heterosexual, homosexual and singles to achieve their dream of a healthy baby through thorough assessment of contributing issues including, but not exclusive: thyroid hormone issues, endometriosis, PCOS, male fertility issues (contribute to up to 60% of fertility issues), nutrient deficiencies, immune challenges, gut and vaginal infections, age- related infertility.

Many couples that come to see Tess say they wish they had come to see her sooner as she often uncovers contributing issues, that had previously not been found.

She then uses nutrition, supplementation, herbal medicine and lifestyle advice to help support and improve not only your fertility but also impact your future baby’s health for the better.

She has great working relationships with IVF clinics and will work with your fertility specialist throughout your IVF and ART journey as needed along with your general practitioner.

Pregnancy and Post partum

Growing and bringing a baby into this world is a wonderful and special time. It is not without its challenges however, placing a large nutrient burden on the mother along with common pregnancy symptoms such nausea, fatigue, muscle cramps. Seeking out support for your nutrition is invaluable for yourself as well as your baby for ensuring you are feeling your best as well as optimising the health of your baby. The health of a mother has a huge impact on the health of the baby long into its adult life. By optimising your nutrition and gut health during pregnancy you have a chance to impact your child’s health for the better, by preventing allergies and asthma, preventing diabetes and obesity, and improving brain health all while in utero.

Other pregnancy conditions, Tess can help with include:

• Prevention and treatment of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

• Hyperemesis gravidarum

• Pre-eclampsia

• Depression and Anxiety

• Vaginal infection such as Group B Streptococcus, Thrush and Bacterial vaginosis

• Thyroid conditions

• Recurrent pregnancy loss and preterm birth

She is also passionate about setting up and supporting a mother for a happy and joyous welcome to motherhood, whether it is your first or second, third or beyond child.
