Consultations at Balanced Health

Whatever your health concern, our team brings together naturopathy, nutrition and psychology under one roof, so your care is coordinated rather than fragmented. All our practitioners are registered with their relevant professional bodies. We are always happy to work alongside your GP or specialist as part of your broader healthcare team.

Our Practitioners

Sarah Franklin (Naturopath, Nutritionist & Registered Nurse) brings more than 27 years of experience across conventional and natural medicine, with a particular focus on supporting people through complex medical conditions. Taleah Lockhart (Naturopath) has a special interest in gut health, hormonal and reproductive health, stress and burnout, sleep, children’s health and skin concerns. Leanne Casey (Registered Psychologist) rounds out the team, supporting the mental and emotional side of your health. You can read more about each practitioner on our About Us page.

Initial vs Follow-up Consultations

Our Naturopathy/Nutrition initial consultation runs for about an hour and covers a full review of your medical history and current health concerns, so we can identify the underlying causes and map out a treatment direction. Follow-up consultations are shorter, around 30 minutes, and focus on reviewing your progress and adjusting your treatment plan. Psychology sessions are generally standard hour sessions.

In Person, Phone or Online

You’re welcome to see us in person at our Coolangatta clinic, or join us via phone or online from anywhere. You can also mix and match between in-person and online appointments, whatever works best for you.
