I’m an Endorsed Nurse Practitioner (NP) with over 10 years of experience, originally trained in emergency medicine and resuscitation. Over time, my practice evolved to include  cosmetic medicine, women’s health, and holistic health, a journey guided by the real, changing needs of the women I care for.

My Story

As I walked alongside my patients through various life stages, I started noticing  common threads: changes in skin, mood, weight, and overall wellbeing. I became  increasingly aware of how often women are overlooked, dismissed, or told to “just get on with it” when it comes to perimenopause and menopause. 


Several years ago, I found myself experiencing signs of early or premature menopause. Despite seeing a female GP, I received little support or education. That experience was  the turning point. I pursued further training, including professional certificates and a Postgraduate Certificate in Menopause Medicine, and was mentored by a brilliant GP Obstetrician who helped me grow in confidence and capability. 


Now, I assess, manage, and treat women empathetically and holistically through their  menopause journey because no woman should feel alone, confused, or unheard. 


As a mother of five, I understand how easily hormonal symptoms can be mistaken for  general overwhelm. Starting Menopause Hormone Therapy (MHT) allowed me to feel  like myself again, more present, more energetic, more me. 
Also, in true “meno-paws” style, I adopted three cats during this period (alongside our  loyal dog), because apparently hormonal chaos and animal adoption go hand in hand! 


I’m here to offer more than clinical advice. I offer a listening ear, an open heart, and a space where women can feel validated, informed, and empowered.
