What others are saying
Deep gratitude
I will always be grateful for the coaching I did with Karen. At the time I suffered from severe reflux that was damaging my oesophagus and bloating that left me feeling uncomfortable and unable to wear my ‘normal’ wardrobe. Karen worked with me to change my diet and lifestyle at a manageable pace, and I can now say that I am symptom free and no longer suffer burning when I eat spicy foods or any foods. Linda M NSW
Bloating and lethargy
I first went to Karen with a feeling of bloating and lethargy. I had had a heart attack with resulted in lasting problems with my heart. After our initial consult, Karen started me on a plan of juices, diet and cognitive therapies. After a few months I noticed changes in my skin, nails and my overall energy levels. Today, 18 months on, I am in a better place mentally and physically. I would highly recommend Karen for all your wellness and healthcare needs. She is thorough, caring is highly accredited. Ruth R NSW
Insulin be Gone
I’m totally off insulin! Blood sugars still a bit high but mostly stable. Thanks beyond words for your wisdom and encouragement. I can see light at the end of this tunnel. I will tell all who will listen what a legend you are. Nicky V VIC
Caring and Knowlegable
Karen was my health coach. She shared her wealth of knowledge about nutrition, whilst supporting my physical and emotional needs. I felt better within days and by three weeks I felt like a new person. I highly recommend Karen as she’s caring, motivating and has inspired me to be my best self. Janet J QLD
FAQS
About Me & Plantiful Health
What qualifications do you have as a naturopath and health coach?
I hold formal qualifications in Naturopathy, Nutritional Medicine, Western Herbal Medicine, Live Blood Analysis, and Fitness Coaching. My approach is particularly focused on supporting women over 45 through age-specific health and lifestyle solutions. I combine evidence-based natural health with practical, personalised strategies that respect your body’s innate wisdom.
What makes your approach different from other health practitioners?
I blend modern science with nature’s foundational principles: breath, hydration, movement, nourishment, fun, sleep, nature, and relationships. With nearly 40 years in the workforce and over 50 years of life experience—including my own journey through injury, illness, and healing—I bring depth, empathy, and understanding into every consultation. My toolbox includes clinical training, intuitive insight, and a down-to-earth approach that isn’t for everyone—but the women I work with deeply appreciate the holistic, real-life support they receive. I also maintain a trusted network of specialist practitioners and will refer you if needed.
Do you work with clients in-person or online?
Most of my clients work with me online from across Australia and around the world. In-person appointments are available on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, when my schedule allows.
Working With Me
What does working with you involve?
I’ve recently restructured my offerings to make them more accessible and affordable. You can choose from three levels of support:
Free Plantiful Health Community – A space for conversation, inspiration, and connection, with regular input from me.
Next Level Wellness Group Coaching – We meet every second Thursday morning online. Can’t make it live? No problem—you can submit questions ahead of time and watch the recordings.
1:1 Coaching – For personalised, high-touch support. Includes access to the Group Coaching sessions. A quick Clarity & Connection Call is required to determine if we’re the right fit before starting.
Do you offer one-off sessions, or do I need to commit to a program?
Yes, one-off sessions are available and can help address particular concerns. They are most effective when paired with ongoing group coaching or one of my programs where there's space for deeper work, consistency and long-term results.
What’s included in the free Clarity Call?
A 15-minute, no-pressure chat to explore your current health concerns, goals, and whether my approach is right for you.
Nutrition & Lifestyle
Do you provide tailored food plans?
In our communities, we discuss nutrition, fasting, detoxing, and share inspiration. For personalised food and lifestyle plans, 1:1 coaching is recommended.
Can you help with plant-based or whole food eating?
Absolutely. At Plantiful Health, we support a plant-forward approach that’s nourishing and sustainable—whether you're fully plant-based or simply want to eat more whole, living foods.
Can I still drink coffee or alcohol while working with you?
It’s all about balance. I help you understand how these choices affect your health, hormones and energy so you can make empowered decisions.
Do you recommend supplements?
Only when necessary. I use high-quality, practitioner-grade supplements to correct imbalances that can’t be addressed through diet alone, and always in conjunction with food-based solutions.
For Shift Workers
Can you help with sleep issues related to shift work?
Yes. As a former shift worker, I understand the unique challenges. I offer realistic, practical sleep strategies tailored to irregular rosters and changing demands.
How do I stay healthy with a rotating roster?
I’ll help you build simple, flexible systems for sleep, meals, movement, and self-care that work with your roster—not against it.
Pricing & Support
How much does it cost to work with you?
I offer several options:
Plantiful Health Community – Free JOIN HERE
Group Coaching (Next Level Wellness) – $99/month
1:1 Coaching – $499/month (includes group coaching access)
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. All plans are structured as monthly payments. If cost is a barrier, please reach out—we can chat to see what’s possible.
Is your program covered by health insurance or rebates?
Some of my 1:1 services may be eligible for rebates, depending on your insurer. Group coaching and community support are not covered.
Getting Results
Do I need to follow a strict diet or routine to get results?
Not at all. We work within your lifestyle and preferences to create a plan that’s realistic, enjoyable, and sustainable long term.
What kind of results have your clients seen?
Many of my clients have improved sleep, balanced hormones, clearer skin, weight loss, better moods, and even reduced or eliminated their need for medications. Most importantly, they feel more empowered and in tune with their bodies.
Do you offer support between sessions?
Yes. Ongoing support is a vital part of what I offer—because you shouldn’t have to do this alone.
What if I’ve tried everything and nothing has worked?
That’s often when people find me. We’ll return to the foundations of real health and start building again—one simple, powerful step at a time.
