Meet ALECIA
I’m Alecia, a qualified Naturopath with a Bachelor in Biomedicine (Cell & Molecular Biotechnology)—and someone who knows firsthand what it’s like to struggle with skin that just won’t cooperate.
I’ve lived with severe eczema, and know from experience not only the physical, but the emotional toll it takes. The discomfort, the self-consciousness, the confusion, the feeling trapped in your skin, and that you’re not being truly seen or understood in your journey to get relief—it can be absolutely exhausting. That lived experience is what fuels my passion for helping others find real relief and real healing through personalised, holistic care.
How I got here…
I originally set out to become a medical doctor, driven by a strong desire to help others. But nearing the end of my Biomedicine Degree, I hit a wall: total burnout. I was physically and emotionally depleted—which is when I first saw a Naturopath. Funny story, that Naturopath was actually the Em, the Director of The Acne & Eczema Clinic.
That first consultation was a turning point. I felt truly heard and supported, and for the first time in a long time, I saw a pathway forward that felt right. It combined science with soul, biochemistry with compassion. And I knew—this was the kind of practitioner I wanted to become. As I got better through holistic health, the conventional model of medicine, with its focus on polypharmacy and a reductionist view of complex conditions, didn’t feel like the right fit anymore. I completed my Degree in Biomedicine and started my next Degree in Naturopathy.
My approach to care
As a Naturopath with a biomedical background, I bring the best of both worlds: the scientific rigour of conventional medicine with the whole-person perspective of Naturopathy.
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.
When I’m not consulting…
You’ll find me exploring nature, curled up with a book and a hot bath, training at the gym, and spending quality time with my dog and loved ones.
I bring this same human, grounded energy into my practise—because I know that healing doesn’t happen in a vacuum. It happens when we feel safe, supported, and truly seen.
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.
