Meet SALLIE

 

I’m Sallie, a qualified Naturopath with a Bachelor in Heath Sciences (Naturopathy) and additional post-graduate training in Corneothrapy, with a deep, firing passion for skin health.

I’m a degree-qualified Naturopath (who refused to do their Honors because I knew I needed to be in clinic ASAP) and Holistic Skin Therapist with a special focus on chronic and complex skin conditions, including acne, eczema, perioral dermatitis, rosacea, and Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW).

With advanced training in Corneotherapy - a science-backed approach that restores and protects the skin barrier using customised, skin-mimicking formulations - I bring a unique inside-out and outside-in methodology to skin health.

Drawing on my expertise in both naturopathic medicine and medical-grade topical skincare, I combine functional and standard pathology testing with evidence-based nutrition, herbal medicine, and lifestyle support. This integrative approach allows me to identify and treat the root causes of skin concerns, rather than simply managing surface symptoms (though symptom management is important at the start of treatment!).

With over seven years’ experience in clinical practice, I have honed my ability to provide personalised care while building strong, supportive relationships with those I treat. I is highly skilled in interpreting pathology, creating innovative treatment plans, and offering practical solutions that address both skin function and whole-body health.

My passion for skin is also deeply personal. Having experienced years of cystic acne herself in her early twenties, I understand the emotional and physical impact skin conditions can have. This lived experience, combined with my professional expertise, allows me to work with great empathy and relatability.

My ultimate goal is to help patients not only achieve clear, resilient skin but also regain their confidence, vitality, and sense of balance; supporting you to feel at home in your skin again.

My approach to care

As a Naturopath and holistic Skin Therapist, I bring the best of both worlds: the scientific rigour of conventional medicine with the whole-person perspective of Naturopathy, along with the deep understanding of your skin health from a Corneotherapy perspective.

Here’s what I believe in:

  • Individualised care – No two people are the same. Your protocol is tailored to your unique needs, physiology, and lifestyle.

  • Skin-focused strategies – I’ve lived the skin struggle, and I’ve made it my clinical speciality. I focus on barrier repair, inflammation, immune responses, and microbiome support.

  • Ongoing education & empowerment – I want you to feel informed, in control, and confident—not just during treatment, but long after our work together ends.

  • Functional testing – I use in-depth testing to uncover the root causes—whether hormonal, digestive, or inflammatory.

You’re not alone in this.

Whether you're dealing with acne, eczema, perioral dermatitis, or other complex skin concerns, I’m here to help you uncover the “why” and support you with a plan that actually works—one that honours your body, your goals, and your reality. One that’s rooted in our principles of finding your unique drivers and bringing balance to them; from the outside in and the inside out.

Here are just a few before and afters of patients I’ve worked with. For eczema, this was Topical Steroid Withdrawal, with results achieved in 5 months. For acne, this was 6 weeks between consultations, showing how effective holistic support is in a short space of time.
