Thoughtful care, at every stage of your family's health journey
OUR SERVICESWhether you're seeking support for your own wellbeing or exploring options for your child, Botanica Grove offers gentle, evidence-informed naturopathic care tailored to where you are right now. All consultations are available via telehealth, so you can access support from the comfort of your own home.
Initial Adult Consultation
60 - 75 MINUTESYour first appointment is a dedicated space to be heard. We'll move through your health history together - your symptoms, what you've already tried, your lifestyle, your sleep, your stress, your nutrition - building a full and considered picture of where you are. By the end of our time together, you'll have a personalised plan and a clear sense of the path ahead.
Children's Consultation
60 MINUTESChildren deserve care that's designed for them — gentle, age-appropriate, and attuned to the particular way their bodies grow and respond. This dedicated appointment explores your child's health through a wide and careful lens: their development, nutrition, gut health, sleep, immunity, skin, nervous system, and emotional wellbeing.
Some of the areas I commonly support children with: eczema and skin sensitivities, gut discomfort and food intolerances, recurring colds or lowered immunity, sleep difficulties, anxiety and emotional regulation, and general health support from babies through to teenagers.
Return Consultation
30 MINUTESReturn appointments offer an opportunity to reflect on what's shifted, explore what's still tender, and gently adjust your plan as you evolve. These sessions are where the deeper, longer-lasting change tends to take shape.
Acute Consultation
15 MINUTESA shorter, focused appointment for when something specific has come up and you'd like a considered, timely response. Available for existing clients who need prompt guidance without requiring a full consultation.
Free Discovery Call
15 MINUTESIf you're wondering whether naturopathy might be right for your family, or simply want to get a sense of how I work before committing to an appointment, a discovery call is a lovely place to begin.
It's a gentle, obligation-free conversation for you to share a little about what's going on, and see if Botanica Grove feels like the right fit.
Functional & Pathology Testing
Where it would genuinely help us understand what's happening in the body, I may suggest functional or pathology testing as part of your care. This could include:
✓ Blood pathology — hormonal, thyroid, nutrient, metabolic, and immune markers.
✓ Gut microbiome testing — to explore bacterial balance, inflammation, digestive function, and potential drivers of ongoing symptoms.
✓ Saliva testing — adrenal function, cortisol rhythm, and stress hormone patterns.
✓ Urine testing — organic acids, metabolic and nutritional markers, and detoxification pathways.
✓ Allergy and food sensitivity panels — to gently identify immune responses that may be contributing to skin, gut, or behavioural symptoms.
Frequently asked questions
-
We often see eczema and skin sensitivities, gut discomfort and food intolerances, recurring infections and immune challenges, sleep difficulties, anxiety and nervous system sensitivity, and general health support across all childhood stages - from infancy through to the teenage years.
-
I can help with a range of conditions! Including, but not limited to:
Fatigue and depletion, hormonal shifts, gut and digestive concerns, skin flares, nervous system dysregulation, stress, immune resilience, and the kind of quiet, accumulated exhaustion that often comes from long periods of caring for others before yourself.
-
Yes, and their safety is always the first consideration. Every recommendation is carefully matched to your child's age, weight, and stage of development. I take a gentle, conservative approach - particularly with very young children - and only use evidence-informed therapies appropriate for their needs.
-
Absolutely. Naturopathy works beautifully alongside conventional medical care, and I'm always happy to support you as part of a wider healthcare team. If you'd like me to communicate with another practitioner, we can explore that together.
-
Not at all. If you have recent results, please feel welcome to bring them along - they can offer a helpful starting point. But we can absolutely begin without any prior testing, and I'll only suggest further investigation if it would genuinely add to your care.
-
It varies, and I'll always be honest with you about what's realistic for your situation. Some people notice meaningful shifts within a few weeks; others take a little longer. What I can say is that we're building something that lasts - not rushing toward results that don't hold.
-
Yes - Botanica Grove is fully telehealth, which means you can access care from anywhere in Australia. No travel, no waiting rooms, and no need to arrange childcare around a clinic visit. Just a calm, unhurried appointment from wherever feels comfortable for you.
-
Only if they're genuinely warranted. I don't recommend supplements as a default - and when I do, I'll explain clearly why, what they're intended to support, and how they fit into your broader plan. Practitioner-grade products are used where indicated, always with your budget and preferences in mind.
-
You'll receive a personalised treatment plan written specifically for you - not a generic document, but a considered summary of what we discussed, what we're working toward, and the steps to begin. You'll leave knowing what to do next, and feeling supported in doing it.
