Why I Do This Work

When I was a little girl, my grandmother told me, “Health is the most important thing in life.” I didn’t believe her. At the time, I recall considering marrying Prince Harry to be far more pressing.

I also had an early fascination with plants, and with the more magical side of life—one that got a little out of hand. I vividly remember blending herbs in my back garden for my younger sister, convinced my concoction would make her “see unicorns.” Thankfully, my mum intervened before the experiment went too far. My sister survived, and my herbal medicine dispensing has improved significantly since then. But even now, I still believe in the magic of plants—both as food and as medicine.

Fast forward a few years, and life looked picture-perfect through the lens of a traditional British household: ambition, academic achievement, all the hallmarks of success. I grew up in a very high-achieving and conservative family, and I secured a place at St Andrews for a five-year Master of Arts degree at 18—a traditional path was laid out for me. But something didn’t feel right. I couldn’t ignore the quiet pull toward something different. So, I turned down the offer and chose a life led by intuition—a decision that would change everything.

Knowing that the conservative life path laid out for me wasn’t what I was here for, I found myself in the entertainment industry, surrounded by the glitterati, and I was even Peaches Geldof’s PA for a short stint when I was 19. On the surface, life definitely looked exciting, but behind the scenes, I was struggling - badly.

Disconnected from myself, and feeling like I really didn’t fit in, to conventional social constructs or to the family I was raised in, over the years, I battled autoimmune arthritis, severe depression, anxiety, severe panic attacks, PMDD and more..

The transformation in my mental and physical health that I’ve experienced through a lengthy journey of studying, integrating and working with natural medicines, nutrition, Kundalini yoga, and holistic healing modalities, could be considered nothing short of miraculous. The extremely colourful journey I went on to end up as the happiest, healthiest and most fulfilled and authentic version of myself prepared me to be able to take others by the hand and help them in their own deep healing work, on every level.

As a long-time vegan, I faced another challenge: conventional healthcare and even natural healthcare often dismissed my values, urging me to “just eat fish and eggs” instead of offering real, supportive solutions. Since going vegan had itself improved my health enormously, I knew there had to be a better way and that I wanted to offer it to others whose values were also being dismissed.

The lengthy health journey I had to go on to reach where I am now taught me that true healing couldn’t come from quick fixes; whilst nutrition and natural medicine are incredibly powerful tools, they often aren’t enough by themselves. For me, and for many others, true healing requires a new way of thinking—one that integrates the physical, emotional, and spiritual.

What Was Missing

When I looked around, I saw two extremes:

• Conventional medicine, focused on symptom suppression and lacking nutritional depth—especially for plant-based lifestyles.

• Alternative spaces, full of hopeful advice and promises, but often with little evidence or clinical grounding. Those that were evidence-based, such as the 4 year BHSc Naturopathy degree I completed, were often even more zealously anti-plants than the mainstream health spaces.

Where was the middle ground?

Where was the evidence-based, holistic care that respected plant-based choices and also acknowledged the role of trauma, nervous system regulation, and emotional health?

Where were the practitioners who understood what it felt like to hit rock bottom—yet also knew how to help you rise again?

The truth is, our healthcare systems are not designed to treat the whole person. Most people are left with fragmented advice—a bunch of pills, nutrition and stress tips given by a typically unqualified Youtube influencer, maybe a yoga class thrown in—yet they still struggle.

And for plant-based eaters? The gap is even wider. So many vegans are told their symptoms are because of their diet, not because of underlying issues like inflammation, trauma, or hormonal imbalance. That lack of plant-based holistic clinical support forced me to create a solution where little existed.

I decided to build something different.

The Work

I created Camilla Clare Holistic Health to offer integrated, plant-powered naturopathy and deep emotional healing for those ready to go beyond “managing” symptoms and into true transformation.

My work blends:
✔ Evidence-based Naturopathy & Nutrition that considers you as a whole person
✔ Plant-based food strategies, and Plant-Based Medicine perfect for vegans, vegetarians and plant-based eaters, but still accessible to those who aren’t ready to be fully plant-based.
✔ Family Constellations & Rapid Core Healing to powerfully release emotional blocks, regardless of what diet you follow
✔ Mind-body medicine and Kundalini Yoga for nervous system balance
✔ Asterian Astrology for soul alignment

Because when you address every layer—physical, emotional, and spiritual—you create powerful change that lasts.

The Result?

What’s the outcome of this work? Often more health, happiness and purpose than you might have known possible. A sense of ease, more energy, and feeling truly at home in your body and mind.

Clients often share that they’re sleeping better, digestion feels easier, and their mood is far more stable. Many notice they’re calmer in stressful situations and feel more connected in their relationships. Over time, these changes create space for joy, confidence, and a renewed sense of self.

When one person heals, it doesn’t stop there—it can strengthen families, improve relationships, and even influence future generations in small but powerful ways. Self-care is anything but selfish; it’s one of the greatest gifts we can give those around us.

Where I Am

Based in Ubud, the lush, spiritual heart of Bali, I work with clients worldwide—from London to Dubai, Singapore to Sydney, Auckland to LA—through 1:1 consultations, online programmes, and transformational retreats.

You’ll usually find me in a quiet corner of the tropics, surrounded by notebooks, herbal tinctures, tropical fruit and my juicer.

Before this, I ran a clinic in the healing capital of Australia, the Byron Bay Shire, seeing people in-person, but also working with clients across Australia, the UK, Singapore, Dubai and beyond.

This is truly international work—because physical and mental disconnection from self and suffering is everywhere, and fortunately, thanks to the internet, I can help you regardless of whether we’re geographically a million miles apart..

Where We’re Going Next

I believe the future of health is integrative, plant-powered, and trauma-informed. A world where people don’t have to choose between natural health and real results, and where healing honours science and soul in equal measure—and respects ethical choices like veganism along the way.

My vision? To create accessible education, immersive retreats in nature, and a global online clinic that helps thousands transform their health and emotional well-being.

I also hold a strong passion for sustainability and co-founded a company called PhytoLove to bring the richest natural source of omega-3, Ahiflower, to Australia and New Zealand for the first time. I contribute regularly to the education of healthcare practitioners and the general public on the topics of omega-3 and plant-based nutrition. Another one of my highest goals is to advocate for plant-based living through education and ethical entrepreneurship.
