Meet Marissa,

Marissa’s career in natural medicine started in 2016 when she began studying a Bachelor of Health Science and since then, she has cultivated a deep love for supporting others to feel empowered and achieve long-term health. Her own complex health journey combined with her extensive training means she truly understands the importance of a root-cause approach. Patient education and empowerment is at the forefront of Marissa’s clinical approach, and she is devoted to creating a warm, safe, and non-judgemental space for her patients.

 

Marissa works with a variety of conditions but has developed a special love for all things women’s health including vaginal and genitourinary issues, menstrual irregularities like painful, heavy, or absent periods, PCOS, PMS, and PMDD. Additionally, she has a great love for gut health, mental and emotional health, stress management, supporting neurodivergent patients, and is deeply passionate about cultivating positive relationships with food and our bodies.
