A Complete Guide to Seeing a Naturopath in Auckland: What to Expect
So… what does a naturopath actually do?
Think of a naturopath as someone who looks at your body like a beautifully complex ecosystem, not a collection of disconnected symptoms trying to cause chaos.
My job is to:
Listen (really listen)
Investigate what’s going on beneath the surface
Explain things in normal human language
Create a plan tailored to your body, your life, and your capacity
Whether you’re dealing with hormonal ups and downs, a microbiome that’s acting like a rebellious teenager, or symptoms you've tried everything for, naturopathy offers a whole-person approach designed just for you.\
Can I See You If You Don’t Live in Auckland? Absolutely.
Although many people find me by searching for a naturopath in Auckland, all of my consultations are actually held online. This means you can work with me whether you’re in Auckland, elsewhere in New Zealand, or tucked away in a tiny town where the nearest café doubles as the post office. Online appointments are relaxed, accessible, and give you all the same support — just without the commute, parking stress, or rushing out the door with half a smoothie in your hand.
Your First Appointment: What to Expect
A Conversation That Goes Well Beyond “How are you?”
Your initial consultation is a 60-minute deep dive — the helpful kind, not the overwhelming kind. We talk about:
Your health history
Blood test results
Future testing options and steps to move forward
Hormones
Stress and sleep
Digestion (yes, even the awkward bits)
Past treatments
Patterns that might be hiding between the lines
It’s a relaxed, spacious conversation where your story actually matters.
Advanced Testing (when needed)
If you’ve been dealing with stubborn or recurrent infections, microbiome issues, or symptoms that simply won’t budge, I use a myriad of testing options including Next Generation Gene Testing, Dutch, Endomap, Microbiome stool testing and more.
It gives detailed insights into what’s really happening inside — like turning on a light in a dark room.
I also work closely with a GP in the United States, so when cases get complex, there’s a supportive clinical team behind you.
A Personalised Plan That Doesn’t Take Over Your Life
Your wellness plan may include:
Nervous system support
Functional Testing
Herbal medicine
Nutritional therapy
Hormonal support
Microbiome protocols
Realistic lifestyle shifts
Nothing extreme, nothing rigid — just gentle, evidence-informed support that fits into your actual life. I am here to help you habit stack and work towards your health goals, at the pace you want to go.
Follow-Up Sessions
Follow-ups (30 minutes) give us time to:
Track your progress
Adjust your plan
Review test results
Celebrate the wins (even the small ones)
Tweak things that aren’t quite landing
Healing rarely moves in a straight line, but follow-ups make sure you feel supported along the way.
Why Work With a Naturopath?
People often seek out naturopathy when they’re ready for:
A practitioner who truly listens
Answers to long-standing health questions
Individualised support
A holistic approach that respects the whole person
As a naturopath in Auckland, my focus is women’s hormonal health, resistant infections, and gut health. However I also work with a variety of other conditions on a weekly basis.
