What is Naturopathy & Dietetics?
Naturopathy encompasses a holistic approach to health, with the primary intention to identify and treat the underlying cause of illness using herbal medicine, nutrition and lifestyle interventions. Naturopathic medicine uses a unique combination of both traditional and scientific evidence in order to treat the whole person, not just the disease.
Dietitians specialise in food and nutrition. We focus on disease prevention and health optimisation, through evidence-based dietary guidance. Dietitians can assist in the management of a range of health conditions such as diabetes, gastrointestinal disease, heart disease, overweight or obesity, renal disease and food allergies.

A little about me…
My name is Esther, and I am an Accredited Practicing Dietitian (APD) and registered Naturopath. I am passionate about supporting individuals to feel great, reach their personal health goals and develop a healthy relationship with food, without restriction. Utilising education, dietary intervention and herbal medicine, I strive to implement sustainable, realistic and client-centered changes that can be maintained long after our consultations end.
Growing up, a love of food and nutrition was inherent in my lifestyle, naturally leading me to complete a Masters degree in Dietetic Practice at La Trobe University in 2016. A passion for herbal medicine developed after working with indigenous plant medicine in Peru, prompting me to enrol into a Bachelor of Health Science (Naturopathy) at Endeavour College of Natural Health in 2018. I completed my Naturopathy degree in December, 2021.
