She qualified as a naturopath in 2009 and has over 25 years of experience in natural health, complementary medicine and integrative medicines. As a mum of two children, Gloria completely understands the challenges of incorporating a range of healthy foods, functioning on disrupted sleep and managing the onslaught of germs that come home from daycare and school. Over half of her clients are children and their parents/caregivers and her specialties include women's and children's health. She has a keen interest in behavioural disorders, hormones, mood, stress and gastrointestinal health. Gloria takes an integrative approach to health and considers existing health complaints, genetics, medications, lifestyle choices and priorities to give her clients tailored advice for maximum impact on their health. Growing up around natural medicine, Gloria has always been intrigued in exploring how the body works to heal itself. Her Italian father grew and had a remedy for everything, and her early interest in this field saw her studying herbal medicine via correspondence as a teenager. After working with a naturopath and undertaking a mentorship, Gloria realised that this wasn’t just a personal interest - she could create this into a career! Throughout her studies and early career, she was blessed to work with pharmacists who were aligned to natural medicine, providing plentiful practical learning opportunities. Towards the end of her degree, she worked for an alternative medicine doctor assisting with dietary changes, supplements and making potions. Following her love for teaching others, Gloria worked for Metagenics educating other healthcare practitioners and was a Lecturer (and later Curriculum Facilitator) at the Endeavour College of Natural Health from 2016 to 2022. Gloria has now returned to her core interest of helping people get to the root cause of their health issues and runs a busy home-based naturopath clinic in Northern Perth. She is committed to providing her clients with the latest and most evidence-based health solutions. Gloria looks forward to helping you take small steps to create permanent change for optimal health.
