A little about me
For more than twenty years, I have cared for women through every stage of their hormonal and reproductive journeys. From first periods and the challenges of adolescence to fertility preparation, conception, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, perimenopause, and menopause.
The experience I bring to your care
Women's hormonal and reproductive health has been at the heart of my clinical practice, and experience has taught me that the details matter.
A menstrual cycle may appear regular, yet there can be important questions about ovulation or the changes occurring throughout the month that need to be asked. Fertility investigations may provide some answers while leaving other questions unresolved. And the hormonal transitions of perimenopause can be far more complex than simply having irregular periods.
These are the nuances that interest me and have shaped my clinical knowledge, the questions I ask and the way I approach your care.
Chinese medicine has a rich and sophisticated tradition of understanding menstrual and reproductive health, with particular attention to cycle patterns, menstrual characteristics and the changes that occur throughout each stage of life.
I bring this knowledge together with contemporary reproductive healthcare, relevant pathology and investigations, using acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine where appropriate.
I'm interested in understanding your history, recognising what may be clinically important and helping you make sense of the information you already have. I also recognise when further investigation or collaboration with another healthcare professional is needed.
While every individual’s reason for seeking support is unique, most are ultimately searching for the same outcomes: to truly understand our bodies, and to find relief from disruptive symptoms, and ensure our hormones or reproductive health no longer rule our lives.
Fertility involves both partners
When it comes to preparing for pregnancy, I believe both partners deserve the same attention.
So much of the conversation around fertility focuses on women, yet male reproductive health is an equally important part of the picture. Where a male partner is involved, I encourage him to participate in preconception care too, rather than leaving all the preparation, investigations and responsibility to the woman.
Whether you're planning your first pregnancy, have been trying to conceive for some time or are undergoing IVF, I consider the reproductive health of both partners and the factors that may be relevant to their fertility.
I work alongside fertility specialists and other healthcare professionals, offering complementary care throughout preconception and fertility treatment.
Beyond hormonal health
My clinical interests also extend to dermatology and skin health, an area that has been a longstanding part of my practice.
Alongside my work in Chinese medicine, I have undertaken additional training in Chinese medicine dermatology, cosmetic acupuncture and corneotherapy.
I see patients with a wide range of skin concerns, from acne and inflammatory skin conditions to changes in skin health and appearance as we age.
I enjoy bringing together my understanding of Chinese medicine with the principles of skin barrier health and corneotherapy, considering both the skin itself and the broader factors that may be contributing to someone's concerns.
What you can expect from me
You may arrive with a long history of symptoms, fertility investigations, blood test results or simply the feeling that something has changed and you're not quite sure why.
Perhaps you've already spent hours researching, navigating conflicting advice or wondering what to do next.
My role is to listen carefully, ask the right questions and help you understand your options.
I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, and I won't pretend that every question has a simple answer. What I can offer is the clinical knowledge and experience I've developed over the years, a genuine interest in your health and a thoughtful approach to your care.
Whether you're seeking support for your hormonal health, preparing for pregnancy, navigating fertility treatment or looking for help with your skin, I would welcome the opportunity to work with you.
