You know something isnât quite right.
You're just not sure where to turn next.
If your child is experiencing complex gut, immune or nervous system symptoms, including PANS/PANDAS, tics, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, eczema or recurrent infections, you're not alone.
I help families understand what may be contributing to their child's symptoms, so they can stop guessing and move forward with clarity, confidence and hope.

If This Feels Familiar...
You've been searching for answers for a while now.
You've seen different practitioners, tried different approaches and spent countless evenings searching online, hoping something will finally make sense.
Maybe you've been told it's "just a phase".
Or anxiety.
Or ADHD.
Or that your child will grow out of it.
But deep down, you know your child.
You know something has changed.
And you can't shake the feeling that nobody is looking at the whole picture.
You're carrying the weight of trying to join all the dots yourself.
Wondering if you've missed something important.
Questioning whether you're overreacting.
Feeling exhausted by the uncertainty.
You're not imagining it.
And you don't have to figure this out on your own anymore.
After years of working with children with PANS, PANDAS and complex health concerns, one thing I know for certain:
The behaviour is never the problem. It is the body asking for help.
Symptoms are not random. There is always a reason. My work is finding it with you, and supporting your child's body, gently and step by step, to settle and heal.

Meet Ayelet
Clinical naturopath in Sydney supporting women and children Australia-wide, with a special interest in PANS/PANDAS, children's gut health, ADHD, anxiety, eczema and perimenopause.
I became a naturopath because I was a mother first.
That feeling of knowing something is wrong but not being able to name it is exactly where most families arrive.
Today I support women and children who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to turn next.
If you have already tried changing diet or adding supplements and nothing has fully settled, that makes sense. Symptoms are never random, and isolated changes rarely resolve patterns that have multiple underlying drivers.
My work is about understanding what is driving those patterns and supporting the body, gently and step by step, to stabilise and heal.
With a background in teaching as well as clinical practice, you will always leave a session understanding your plan, not just holding it. The work is steady, grounded, and explained clearly at every step.
If you are ready to look a little deeper, you are in the right place.

What Does the Naturopathic Journey Look Like?
1. The Clarity Call (free, 10 minutes)
A short, honest conversation about what's happening and whether I'm the right fit for your family. If I don't believe I can help, I'll tell you, and where possible point you toward someone who can.
2. The Initial Consultation ($255, 75 minutes)
We meet online for a thorough assessment of health history, symptoms, nutrition, lifestyle and the events around when things changed. You'll leave with answers to questions you've been carrying for months. Where testing would genuinely add insight, I'll explain exactly why before anything is ordered; it's thoughtful, never routine.
3. Your Personalised Plan (included)
Following your consultation, you'll receive a detailed written plan bringing together herbal medicine, nutrition, supplements and lifestyle support, everything explained clearly so you know exactly what we're working on and why. Where test results arrive later, we build them in as we go.
4. Ongoing Support ($125 per consultation)
Regular check-ins to review progress and adjust as the body responds. Along the way you can expect growing clarity about what's driving symptoms, growing confidence as things begin to settle, and steady improvements in sleep, digestion, mood and energy. Healing is tending a garden, not flipping a switch, and you will never walk it alone.
FAQ
Can a paediatric naturopath help children with anxiety, ADHD or PANS/PANDAS?
Yes. Gentle, individualised care supports the gut, brain and immune connection, helping children with anxiety, sleep disruption, immune imbalance and PANS/PANDAS feel calmer, more resilient and better regulated. Care always works alongside your GP or paediatric team, and I'll communicate with them whenever you'd like me to.
What happens in the first consultation?
Your first session is a comprehensive 75-minute assessment where we explore health history, symptoms, nutrition, lifestyle and underlying drivers. Afterwards you receive a detailed written plan with clear, step-by-step guidance, so you always know exactly what we're working on and why.
How much does it cost, and can I claim a rebate?
An initial consultation is $255, which includes the full assessment and your personalised written plan. Follow-ups are $125. All fees are listed transparently on the bookings page. Australian private health funds withdrew rebates for naturopathy industry-wide in 2019, so no naturopathic practice can currently offer them, and consultations aren't covered by Medicare. The free 10-Minute Clarity Call lets you decide whether this is the right fit before committing to anything.
Do you offer online consultations, and do they work for children?
Yes. Consultations are available Australia-wide by telehealth, with in-person appointments in Surry Hills by arrangement. For children's appointments, you and I do most of the talking; your child can come and go as suits them, and many children actually settle better in their own home than in a clinic room.
How can naturopathy support women's hormones?
Herbal medicine and nutritional support can help regulate the nervous system, stabilise energy and support healthy hormone rhythms, especially through perimenopause. Care is personalised to your symptoms, stage of life and overall health. You can read more on my perimenopause page.
How do I book a consultation?
You can book directly online at https://www.botanicartisan.com.au/bookings. Start with a free 10-Minute Clarity Call to ensure we're the right fit, then book your initial consultation. Online appointments are available Australia-wide.
Start HereâŚ
Every journey begins with a small step.
If you have been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to turn next, you are not alone. Many women and families arrive here after trying many approaches without lasting answers.
In clinical practice, when we gently support the gut, nervous system, immune balance and hormonal regulation together, the body often begins to stabilise and clearer progress becomes possible.
You do not need to figure this out alone. Care is personalised, step by step, and guided with clarity so you always understand what we are working on and why.
If this resonates with you, you are warmly welcome to begin. Booking takes two minutes at botanicartisan.com.au/bookings, and the Clarity Call is always the first step.
Warmly, Ayelet
