I came to be a naturopath after over 10 years of struggling with cystic acne as a teenager and many failed attempts at treating it with endless medications, from antibiotics, the pill and 3 separate rounds of Roaccutane.

After the fourth time my acne returned, I decided to heal it naturally. In this process, I discovered what a naturopath was and my life changed.

I was shown how to heal from the inside out, and I committed to changing my lifestyle and food habits to truly heal my skin.

My skin became not only clear, but I got my glow back, a glow I hadn’t seen since my childhood before the acne began. I also got my period back which had been missing and irregular for years. I finally felt in tune with my body again.

Acne can be devastating for self-esteem and confidence. I try to see my history with acne as a blessing, as not only have I learnt how to be healthy and prevent other diseases but I can now share my wisdom with others who wish to clear their skin and regain their confidence and empower them to understand their bodies and cycles.
