BECOMING WHOLE
a bespoke six month naturopathic support package, helping you dive deep into your health, bring back balance & become whole once more..
1:1 Consultations & botanical support with Sarah Roberts
BHSc Naturopath
Welcome
I’m Sarah, your Naturopath.
After years of debilitating periods, monthly migraines, hormonal acne, mood disturbances and a whole lot of digestive issues - I realised there must be more that can be done than taking synthetic hormones and pain killers to support these complaints.
It was then I re-discovered natural health. Since this time I’ve completed a 4 year degree (Bachelor of Health Science, Naturopathy), and amidst the busyness of study, healed these symptoms within myself through the knowledge I had gained.
This year I was also able to fall pregnant naturally, after being told by many of my gp’s that I would likely struggle due to all of my symptoms.
It is with my knowledge and experience so far, countless hours reading research and the latest studies in female health, and through all the women I have worked with - that I bring you my latest offering..

bespoke 1:1 naturopathic support & botanical tonics created purposefully, just for you
The becoming whole package includes six naturopathic consultations, held over the space of three months, alongside six 500 ml botanical tonics that will each last you a month.
Within our sessions we will delve deep into your health, discussing not only your most pressing symptoms and concerns, but also the body systems that intertwine with these. You will have the space to openly talk about your health, how it is that you’ve come to this point in time, and everything that’s impacted you up until now. This is a moment for you to tell your story and be listened to compassionately and with understanding.
In sharing all of your symptoms and the intricacies of your health, I can begin to see the underlying problems present for you. It is from here that I begin to weave together the next steps for us to gain even more insight into your health; from functional tests that can look into the health of your gut microbiome, processing of your hormones and more, to our standard pathology reports.
It is with your test results, symptom picture, health history, predispositions, current lifestyle, and nutritional choices, that your wellness plan is then created. Alongside this is always additional research from me, ensuring your protocols are up to date with the latest in evidence based data.
Your wellness plan is a beautifully presented PDF document, that you can easily access and reference from your phone, or even print out and keep as a visual reminder for what you are aiming to achieve.
Each wellness plan is tailor made to the individual, but will always contain a number of key aspects such as:
Holistic overview of your current health status - this makes sense of all your symptoms, helps to give you a better understanding of why you’re feeling the way you do and gives us direction for your health goals.
Pathology analysis - of any previous relevant testing you’ve had done, and any we have ordered together. This gives you an understanding on a biochemical level of where your health is at, and where the optimal levels are.
Health goals - we will discuss your main priorities at the end of the initial consult, and I will help you to synthesise clear goals that will help you achieve the best outcomes. You will also receive a welcome booklet with extra details on goal setting before our first consult.
Dietary & lifestyle recommendations - specific to you and your needs that will best support you in moving towards your health goals. More of these will be added for long term benefit in ongoing consults
Information about your prescriptions - how and when to take each item, as well as the ingredients and reasoning behind them.
Not only this, but you will also receive additional resources and PDFs to further support your health goals.
BOTANICAL
TONICS
Something I always like to include for my clients is bespoke, hand blended botanical tonics.
When it comes to women’s health, these are especially helpful in not only alleviating your symptoms, but also treating the underlying causes of them.
Herbs work by gently bringing our body’s hormones, neurotransmitters, tissues and systems back into balance. They nourish, provide support, and go with the natural rhythms of your body. Rather than suppressing symptoms, they simply allow the body to heal.
Within the Becoming Whole package, you will receive a monthly herbal tonic blend that is made up just for you. Each herb is added separately and so can be chosen to address a number of different symptoms. This allows for many aspects of your health to be addressed in one formulation.
The Becoming Whole Process
1x90 minute consultation and 5x45 minute sessions, held over 6 months.
-
During our initial consultation we will:
Delve into your current presenting symptoms and condition, analysing the onset, timing, severity and triggers.
Look at the key systems of your body that are intertwined and related to your current presenting complaint.
Go through your current dietary and lifestyle practices and assess what needs improving, whats hindering you and what may be helpful.
Talk about your medical history and everything that has occurred up until this point in time, alongside your family history and any predispositions you may have.
The goal of this session is to get an overview of your health and what has lead you to your current health state. It’s also a space for you to share your story, be listened to and understood, and for us to get to know each other.
-
In our next consultation I will provide you with your bespoke treatment plan that covers the following:
An overview of your current health state, potential contributing factors and underlying causes for your symptoms.
Clear, co created goals to guide you and serve as reminders for the changes you are making
Pathology request forms for you to take directly to the lab, and a discussion around why they would be important (if indicated)
Supportive herbal medicines, nutraceuticals, as well as a lifestyle and dietary plan to help you achieve your goals. 6 x 500ml herbal tonics re included in this package
Clear time frames around you should expect to see changes
-
The remaining 4 consults are for our check ins, focussed on supporting any challenges you may be facing, how you are tracking towards your goals and any concerns that may arise in our time together. In these sessions we will:
Explain any pathology you had from the previous consult so you understand where you are at, and where you want to be
Monitor your response to treatment protocols and adjust as needed
Check in with measurable rating systems to see how you and your symptoms have improved so far
Ensure you still have the same goals and that we are working towards them the best possible way
Ordering any follow up pathology tests to see how you’ve improved
NATUROPATHIC PHILOSOPHY & BECOMING WHOLE
Naturopathy for me is much more than just a modality of medicine. It is a lifestyle in and of itself. As I move about my days, weeks and months of the year I am forever sensing and becoming more and more in tune with what it is my entire being needs for that specific moment.
I believe in the interconnectedness of our body’s and each of the systems within, as well as the mind and our spiritual selves. Whatever is affecting one part of you, is having an impact on all of you.
I also acknowledge that wellness promotion and illness prevention is much better than trying to find a cure. This is why I share as much as possible for you to take away and utilise long term - so that you can prevent future issues from coming up, and help to promote a state of balance and harmony within your body.
FAQs
Where are our sessions held?
I am currently located in the Yarra Valley - and do have the option for in person consultations if you live close by. Otherwise all sessions are held virtually - so anyone in Australia is welcome !
How do I get my herbal tonics ?
Your herbs will be safely packaged and sent to your front door. Postage costs have been added to the pricing so you don’t need to worry about an additional fee. If you live close by you can also arrange to pick up your herbs.
What about other supplements?
After each of our sessions together I will determine what other (if any) nutraceuticals you need. These are added to an online account for you called vital.ly where you can purchase them and have them delivered to your door.
How do I get my tests done?
I will provide you with pathology forms that can be taken directly to the associated laboratory for your state. There you simply give them the form, pay for your testing and have the samples taken. I will receive your results directly and provide you with an analysis. Other tests may require you to complete them at home and will be mailed out to you with instructions.
