Hi, I'm Lauren
INTRODUCTION
I’m an accredited Naturopath and Herbalist with over 15 years of clinical experience specialising in digestive health. My career has taken me from private practice to the world-renowned wellness sanctuary Kamalaya in Koh Samui, where I worked with high-profile clients from around the globe.
My work has been featured in publications including Body+Soul and The Daily Telegraph, and I’m committed to expanding the way we understand health and healing. I recognise the human body holds an innate intelligence, and symptoms are adaptive responses aimed at restoring homeostasis. My consultations take a holistic and considered approach, exploring and addressing the underlying drivers that commonly disrupt this natural balance, while working with the body’s inherent capacity to regulate and function optimally.
Your Path To Healing
THE JOURNEY
At Kiyah, I draw on my background in psychology to create a safe, grounded space for healing. Through personalised herbal formulations, dietary guidance, and lifestyle support, my goal is to help restore vitality and ensure the healing process feels intuitive, sustainable, and aligned for each individual.
Phase 1
INITIAL CONSULTATION
We begin with an in-depth health assessment so I can understand your history, symptoms, unique constitution, drivers and needs. This clarity and understanding are essential to developing a realistic plan that feels right for you and will achieve your goals.
Nb. Functional lab testing is available and you have the option to begin your journey with a microbiome test first.
Phase 2
WORK THE PLAN
Your plan incorporates realistic advice and an understanding of your health picture so we can work toward happier digestion, healthier habits and emotional balance. My advice is holistic, trauma-informed, sustainable and results-driven.
Phase 3

Healing takes time, and I support you through the entire process. Regular check-ins help us fine-tune your plan, celebrate your progress, stay on track and tackle any new concerns that may arise.

FAQs
Naturopathy helps identify what’s driving your symptoms and offers a staged, practical plan forward. By considering the whole person - including diet, lifestyle, stress, movement, and life experiences - care is personalised and sustainable.
Conventional medicine has value and a place; however consultations are brief and treatment suppressive. Our naturopathic consultations are in-depth, personalised and focus on supporting your innate capacity to heal by removing obstacles and utilizing relevant herbal medicines and nutrients.
Lauren prioritises food as medicine, personalised lifestyle guidance, nervous system support and addressing the role of stress and trauma in health. Supplements and herbs are her supportive tools.
Lauren specialises in digestive health and has extensive experience with treating bloating, food intolerances, gut infections and more complex cases of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth, mould toxicity and histamine intolerance.
Where clinically appropriate, Lauren may recommend targeted supplements, compounded nutrients, amino acid powders and/or herbal medicines to support your healing process. These are used thoughtfully and strategically - never excessively.
Any recommendations are purposeful, evidence-informed and tailored specifically to your needs, with the goal of building long-term health rather than dependence on supplements.
Yes, dietary guidance is offered when relevant, but never in a rigid or restrictive way. Recommendations are practical, supportive, and tailored to your lifestyle, constitution, preferences, and digestive capacity - with the goal of nourishment, not deprivation.
Lauren's approach goes beyond standard protocols, drawing on clinical training, lived experience, and a background in psychology. Lauren understands that full resolution of symptoms sometimes requires exploring the role of unprocessed or stuck emotions, alongside highly personalised herbal medicine and energetics. Prescriptions are guided by your unique constitution and tissue state, informed by elemental and Eastern philosophies.
We request that you obtain a copy of any recent pathology or functional medicine testing you've had and email this through, as it allows the initial consultation to be as informed and productive as possible.
This varies depending on your goals and health history. Some clients experience meaningful shifts within a few sessions, while others benefit from ongoing support. Lauren will discuss realistic timelines and recommendations with you during your consultation.
Yes, where relevant, Lauren can refer you for appropriate laboratory and functional/integrative testing to support your care.
Naturopathic care can often complement conventional treatment. Lauren works respectfully alongside existing medical care and will always consider safety, interactions, and individual circumstances.
