Comparing Camilla Clare Holistic Health to Other Naturopath Services
How Camilla’s work differs from other naturopaths
Women often arrive at Camilla Clare Holistic Health after trying “a bit of everything”: supplements suggested on social media, a few ad-hoc hypnosis sessions, some breathwork, and a smattering of GP labs. Helpful at times—yet the needle hasn’t moved much. Camilla works differently by bringing clinical naturopathy and evidence-based nutrition together with trauma-informed, systemic therapies. In practice, she addresses both physiology (bloods, nutrients, hormones, gut, nervous system) and the deeper emotional field that shapes it. Think of it as giving the body the biochemistry it needs while tending to the patterns underneath. (And yes—coffee isn’t the only way to stay awake; sleep, magnesium, and a calmer nervous system do wonders.)
What she does—compared with a typical naturopath
1) Evidence-based naturopathy and plant-based nutrition (real labs, real plans)
Camilla is degree-qualified (BHSc) in Naturopathy with postgraduate training in Human Nutrition. She builds personalised protocols: targeted herbs and nutrients, anti-inflammatory meals, and—where indicated—functional testing (iron/B12, thyroid, vitamin D, cortisol, gut workup, hormone panels). All prescriptions are vegan-friendly, and she safely guides women who are vegan, vegetarian, or “plant-rich.”
Why it matters: symptoms like rage, anxiety, fatigue, insomnia, hair shedding, or low mood often have physiological drivers (iron, B12, iodine/thyroid, omega-3 status, blood-glucose swings). She corrects these while doing the emotional work—so improvements hold.
2) Rapid Core Healing (RCH) + Emotional Mind Integration (EMI)
She uses therapeutic trance, but not the “close your eyes and repeat after me” scripts. RCH and EMI blend hypnotherapy with Gestalt, CBT principles, NLP, ego-state work and Family Constellations to work at subconscious and systemic layers safely and efficiently. Less retelling. Lower risk of retraumatisation. More durable change.
Plain English: instead of polishing symptoms, she meets the root and helps the system complete what never got to complete.
3) Family Constellations for the “bigger field”
When a reaction doesn’t feel entirely one’s own, Constellations gently surface intergenerational burdens—grief, shame, unfinished stories—and help a client put them down. Clinical care + released entanglements = steadier cycles, calmer days.
4) Nervous-system restoration that works on a Tuesday
Between school runs, Zoom calls and Sydney traffic, clients need doable tools. Camilla provides Yoga Nidra for deep rest in ~20 minutes, short state-shifting sequences, and simple drills to widen the space between trigger and response. These sit alongside the clinical plan so biology and body-memory finally sing from the same hymn sheet.
5) PMDD, hormones, and plant-based health—her clinical niche
She translates the science of hormone sensitivity (ALLO/GABA, serotonin timing, HPA axis) into day-to-day food, herbs, and timing. For plant-based clients, she ensures iron, B12, iodine, magnesium, and omega-3 (including Ahiflower) are covered. Her PMDD programmes blend science, lived experience, and practical care.
6) Values, ethics, and sustainability
All medicines and prescriptions are vegan-friendly. She brings a sustainability lens (including experience with plant-based omega-3s), because health and ethics belong in the same room.
7) Structure, pacing, and continuity
Clients can work with Camilla through clear pathways (e.g., Plant-Based Health MOT; PMDD Transformation Programme) with stepwise progression, scheduled follow-ups, and a capped caseload so no one gets lost in a queue.
8) Lived experience + the way she holds the room
Camilla does not approach hormones, trauma or plant-based nutrition from an ivory tower. She has lived PMDD, panic disorder, depression, cystic acne, weight gain from antidepressants and early arthritis. Clients regularly comment on warmth, compassion, clarity, and competence—and that sense of safety is part of the medicine.
The bridge between soul and science
Science (measurable): structured case-taking; targeted labs; evidence-based nutrition; herbal pharmacology; cycle-aware timing.
Soul (experiential): RCH and EMI for root-cause shifts; Family Constellations for intergenerational patterns; nervous-system work so the body can actually receive the changes.
Integration: She stabilises glucose and neurotransmitters, replenishes nutrients, and supports the release of old patterns—so biology and biography stop fighting.
As Viktor Frankl said, “Between stimulus and response there is a space.” Her work widens that space biologically and emotionally.
Comparison: Typical Naturopath vs. Camilla Clare Holistic Health
Rooted in science, held with soul. Here’s how Camilla Clare Holistic Health’s approach differs from a standard naturopathic service.
Dimension | Many naturopaths | Camilla Clare Holistic Health |
---|---|---|
Clinical foundation | General wellness advice; protocol handouts. | BHSc Naturopathy + postgraduate Human Nutrition. Differential diagnosis, clear reasoning, and outcome-oriented plans. |
Intake & case-mapping | Short intake, limited systems thinking. | Structured, whole-system intake mapping hormones, gut, thyroid, bloods, nervous system, trauma history, and cycle data. |
Testing & assessment | Basic or none; “try this and see”. | Targeted labs when indicated: iron/B12, thyroid, vitamin D, cortisol, gut, hormones; retesting to confirm progress. |
Nutrition | Generic meal list; not values-aligned. | Personalised, plant-aligned nutrition (anti-inflammatory, blood-glucose steadying) with practical swaps and recipes. |
Supplement & herbal strategy | Long shopping lists; low precision. | Clinically reasoned prescribing with dosing, timing, interactions, and stop–start rules. |
Omega-3 plan | Fish-oil by habit. | Plant-based omega-3 expertise (incl. Ahiflower), aligned with ethics and physiology. |
PMDD & hormone focus | Broad “women’s health” tips. | PMDD-specific, cycle-timed protocols addressing ALLO/GABA, serotonin timing, and stress-axis sensitivity. |
Subconscious / trauma work | Talk-heavy or referred out. | Rapid Core Healing + Emotional Mind Integration for safe, efficient root-cause processing (less retelling, more integration). |
Systemic patterns | Rarely addressed. | Family Constellations to release intergenerational burdens that amplify symptoms. |
Nervous-system tools | “Manage stress” advice. | Yoga Nidra + micro-resets to create physiological safety so nutrition and therapy hold. |
Programme structure | Ad-hoc sessions. | Clear pathways (e.g., PMDD Transformation; Plant-Based Health MOT) with pacing and follow-ups. |
Continuity & access | Limited follow-through. | Capped caseload for depth, online care for consistency, and planned reviews. |
Education & transparency | Little rationale provided. | Plain-English explanations of the why, written resources, and honest scope/limits. |
Values & ethics | May include animal-derived products. | Vegan-friendly by default, sustainability lens, and consent-first practice. |
Collaboration & safety | Variable. | Collaborative stance with GPs/psychs where helpful; medication safety and red-flag awareness. |
Lived experience | Often unspoken. | Open about her own PMDD and healing journey—informing pacing, listening, and planning. |
Therapeutic alliance | Variable. | Consistently noted as warm, compassionate, thorough, and competent. |
Results pathway | Symptom-managing, fragmented. | Root + physiology: correct deficiencies & dysregulation while resolving patterns—so gains last. |
