Meet your naturopath

Hi, I’m Yasmin, the Naturopath behind Gut Instincts.


A caring, evidence-based Naturopath passionate about helping you feel at ease in your body again.

I take a holistic, science-backed approach to uncover the why behind your symptoms—whether it’s gut health, hormones, fatigue, or skin concerns. Together, we’ll create simple, sustainable solutions that fit into real life (not just on paper).

My goal is to help you understand your body, restore balance, and feel confident in your long-term health and wellbeing.

my key areas of focus:

  • Acne is driven by underlying imbalances rather than surface symptoms alone. Key factors include hormonal fluctuations (such as PMS, PCOS, and perimenopause), digestive and gut dysbiosis, blood sugar irregularities, chronic inflammation, poor detoxification (especially liver function), and nutrient deficiencies. Food sensitivities, high-glycaemic diets, stress, and exposure to environmental toxins also play a central role in driving systemic inflammation and acne.

  • Common gut health conditions seen in my practice include small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), leaky gut (intestinal permeability), dysbiosis (microbial imbalance), food intolerances, chronic constipation, diarrhoea, acid reflux (GERD), and inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis. Other issues such as histamine intolerance, bloating, gastritis, and malabsorption syndromes are also frequently addressed, with treatment approaches, and functional testing tailored to help uncover and resolve underlying contributors like microbiome imbalance, gut inflammation, and food sensitivities

  • I treat a range of female reproductive health conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, irregular or painful periods, PMS, PMDD, menopausal symptoms, vaginal infections, preconception care, and hormonal imbalances. My naturopathic approach is holistic, addressing underlying drivers like endocrine disruption, gut health, environmental toxins, inflammation, liver congestion, and nutritional or lifestyle factors.

“I visited Yasmin for help with PMS symptoms, including acne, bloating, and mood swings. After our first session, I made a few adjustments to my diet and started taking the liquid herbs she recommended. The difference has been incredible… My skin cleared up, bloating stopped, and I no longer feel the emotional rollercoaster before my period. Highly recommend her for anyone looking to balance their hormones and improve overall wellness!”

  • Peter's story

    "I can’t thank Yasmin enough for the impact she’s had on my health. When I first started, I was drinking a litre of Coke a day and constantly battling sugar cravings. With her support, I gradually cut down, and now, I barely even think about it. The changes didn’t stop there. I’ve lost 14cm off my waist through her diet advice and private reformer classes. My sleep has massively improved, something I’ve struggled with for years and I feel so much more in control of my energy and sweet cravings. Her naturopathic advice and reformer Pilates sessions have made such a difference. Highly recommend!" -

  • Vera's Story

    “Working with Yasmin has been a wonderful experience. I initially came to see her with ongoing gut issues that left me feeling frustrated and uncomfortable. From the very first session, she made me feel heard and created a safe space to share my concerns. Yasmin took the time to understand not just my symptoms but my lifestyle as well. She suggested practical changes to my diet and daily habits, then created a personalised treatment plan specifically to me. Thanks to her guidance, my gut health has greatly improved, and I now feel more balanced and empowered in managing my overall well-being. I’ve been genuinely amazed by the effectiveness of natural remedies. I really wish I had learned about them sooner—this is such a game-changer! Thank you, Yasmin, for your expertise and care you showed me throughout this journey.”

  • Olivia's story

    "As a DJ who’s constantly working late nights/travelling/on the go while trying to stay fit, seeing Yasmin has really changed my life and my health! I was addicted to caffeine and energy drinks, like having 3 a day EVERY day, and Yasmin got me off them in my first visit.What I appreciate most about Yasmin is that she'll meet you where you are at and is so understanding about what’s realistic for you. She’s never pushy or strict, she suggests alternatives that are achievable and not too drastic or crazy that can be easily incorporated into your lifestyle.I also love how non-judgemental she is and she makes me feel super comfortable to talk about anything/everything health and body related.Seeing her has made such a huge difference. I will definitely keep seeing her! I was so burnt out before I came in and never thought I would feel this different, but taking on her treatment plan and small incremental lifestyle changes has made my life so much better and I feel so ready and equipped to achieve all the things I want to do.”

    "I am so grateful to have found Yasmin! From the very first appointment, she made me feel genuinely heard and supported. Her calm, caring nature and deep knowledge gave me immediate confidence, and her holistic approach has made such a difference in my energy, digestion, and overall wellbeing. Yasmin takes the time to really understand you — not just your symptoms — and creates personalised, realistic plans that fit into your life. She explains everything so clearly and empowers you to understand your body and your health. I always leave our sessions feeling uplifted, motivated, and cared for.

  • Megan's story

    "I have been going to Yasmin for a couple of weeks now and I have already seen such a huge improvement. I have endometriosis and I can already see the difference in pain and inflammation. I would highly recommend booking in with Yasmin. She has so much knowledge, makes you feel seen and really cares for you and your health. Can’t wait to continue working on my endometriosis and gut health. Thanks so much for everything so far!"
