About Me

Hi! I’m Rochelle, registered Naturopath and Medical Herbalist.

I love working with people and feel so privileged to support people improve their health. I’m passionate about demystifying wellness jargon to simple regular habits. 

I truly believe that good health can be simple and inexpensive once we get the basics right.

My background comes from working in the corporate world in Auckland and then London before I felt inspired to improve my own health and well-being. After working in London for 3 years in HR for a large financial institution, I felt burned out and my own health was suffering. Upon making my way back to Aotearoa New Zealand, I volunteered in a health retreat in the Gold Coast hinterland, working my way out of my own health issues. It was here that I decided to enrol in a Bachelor of Naturopathy and Herbal Medicine. 

I now run my own clinical practice where I see clients for a wide variety of ailments. I have a particular interest in working with burnout, fatigue, stress and disordered nervous systems, but have worked with clients with all manner of complaints or diagnoses. There are so many tools that naturopathic medicine can utilise to initiate healing and I get particularly excited when I work with a client who doesn’t have a specific problem but just wants to age in the best shape possible!

I also work part-time in the Herbal Dispensary at John’s Photo Pharmacy, a job that I love! I am in a position where I can meet and speak to a wide range of people and provide acute naturopathic advice.

When I’m not blending herbs and playing health-detective, I love to spend time in and around oceans and lakes, walking up hills, absorbing a good book and drinking strong coffee (just one a day though!). I am also blessed with wonderful friends, family and a dog who make everything matter.
