My Journey to Homeopathy

People often ask me how I became a homeopath, and the truth is, it wasn't part of a lifelong plan.

Like many people, I didn't really know the difference between a homeopath and a naturopath. I simply knew that one seemed to use lots of herbs and supplements, while the other prescribed tiny medicines with intriguing Latin names.

Everything changed after I became a mother.

Breastfeeding sparked a deep interest in health and nutrition, and I began my journey as a volunteer breastfeeding counsellor, supporting other new mothers in the community. 

As my own children grew, they experienced the usual childhood illnesses, but I often felt uncomfortable with conventional treatments. There were times when I wore more of the medicine than my toddler actually swallowed!

When one of my sons developed repeated ear infections, I found myself wondering, "Surely there's a better way." Knowing I had little chance of convincing a four-year-old to take herbal medicine, I booked an appointment with a local homeopath.

The remedy prescribed cleared his ear infection within 24 hours.

I was impressed.

Not long afterwards, another of my children developed chronic eczema. We'd already explored dietary changes, toxin removal and nutritional approaches, but it was homeopathy that brought the most significant improvement. As I began using homeopathic remedies for first aid and common childhood illnesses, I continued to be impressed by the results.   

Those experiences inspired me to learn more about homeopathy and I realised it was time for a career change from a teacher to a health professional.  What began as a mother's search for gentle healthcare became a lifelong passion and, ultimately, my profession.

Today, I've been in clinical practice since 2005 and still feel privileged to help people of all ages restore their health naturally.  I combine traditional homeopathy with Homeopathic Facial Analysis (HFA), an innovative system that enhances remedy selection while remaining true to the principles established by the founder of homeopathy, Dr Samuel Hahnemann.

I hold an Advanced Diploma of Homeopathy and am a Professional Member of the Australian Register of Homeopaths and the Australian Homeopathic Association. I also work alongside the team at the Victorian College of Classical Homeopathy, applying the principles of Homeopathic Facial Analysis developed through decades of research by Grant Bentley. 

Whether you're looking for support with a long-standing health concern or simply want a natural approach to your family's wellbeing, I'd love to help you on your journey.
