I am a naturopath with a keen interest in assisting people of all ages with the damage caused by previous or current drug use. I employ herbal and nutritional medicine, dietary adjustment and lifestyle advice as my tools to help people. Having experienced states of drug use and abuse myself, I am also a very empathetic listener on the subject (and in general ).

In the modern day, many people utilise drugs, ranging from stimulants such as caffeine, cocaine and amphetamines (such as speed and ice), to depressants such as alcohol (booze, drink), cannabis (weed, marijuana) and benzodiazepines (Valium, Xanax), to cope with the demands and events in their lives. Many people also use drugs recreationally (they are fun, right?). Regardless of the intent, no scenario involving drug use is risk free, nor without consequences.

The primary negative effects of drug use centre on the nervous system, with wide ranging side effects such as: anxiety, depression, irritability, craving, paranoia, poor concentration, impaired learning and memory, and addiction. Drugs also have effects on the body (directly, or indirectly through lifestyle), which may result in increased risk of infection (higher rates of colds and flu), slow wound healing, poor tissue integrity leading to bleeding (such as during excessive stimulant use), and obesity.

The overall effect of excess drug use is a decrease in quality of life, which is usually no fun at all. That’s where I can help.

I am able to assist individuals in reducing drug craving or desire, repair damage from previous drug use, minimise the impact of future drug use, and improve wellbeing with the goal of decreasing the requirement for drugs.

So here’s the list in point form for those who like to skip walls of text:

• Assisting with drug withdrawal and healing damage from past drug use.
• Increasing physical resistance to future drug use
• Stress and fatigue (lack of energy, tiredness, feeling “worn out”)
• Depression and sleep disruption or insomnia
• Irritability
• Anxiety, fear and panic disorders
• Enhancing mental performance (learning and memory, attention and concentration)
• Infections such as colds and flu, including faster recovery
• Gastrointestinal conditions including reflux and bloating, irritable bowel syndrome
