Nicole Topp, Naturopath Passionate about mental health and creating simple strategies for maximum impact. Nic believes in keeping it simple.

Making healthy choices whenever possible and enjoying yourself in the other times! (She is a little partial to an occasional gin and a gluten free donut, not necessarily in that order.) Mental health is an area that has SO much opportunity and potential for support. Often using a team approach with GP's and Psychologists, the outcome is sure to impress. Nic is passionate about motivating her clients to WANT to improve their lifestyle with simple suggestions that will leave them feeling amazed at just how easy it is to get results. Designing strategies that do not create overwhelm is incredibly important.

There is something really fun about literally finding medicine on the side of the road. I have gathered and created topical items, dressings for salads, essences and jams.
Honestly, for me its like an adult easter egg hunt.
The products that I make from wild foraged ingredients are also combined with beeswax from my hive, locally sourced bases and home grown herbs.
Its a craft and a joy to bring these things together.

I’m not waiting for you to become someone who loves meal preparation, remembers every supplement and regards an early bedtime as a thrilling opportunity.

You get to remain you.

We can explore what you would like to feel different, what matters to you and what you are willing—or unwilling—to change.

Some things may need a frank conversation. Some steps may feel unfamiliar. But the goal is not to make you better at living according to my preferences.
It is to help you understand your own needs and make informed choices about your care.

Your care plan should have more of you in it. Not less.
If you have questions or we need a chat, please check out my new website, most questions are answered there. Or book in for a chat or consult.

You may arrive with advice from several directions, a collection of products and a growing suspicion that caring for yourself now requires a project manager.

My first instinct is not necessarily to add more.

I want to understand what is already happening. What is useful? What is unclear? What is asking a lot of you? What actually deserves attention first?

We’ve experienced treatment burden in our own home. I know that feeling of another person, another plan and another thing you’re meant to keep up with.
I’m not talking about abandoning necessary care. I’m talking about being deliberate about the work we add—and discussing changes with the appropriate practitioner.

A shorter list can still involve a great deal of thought.

Please don’t feel you have to delay an appointment until you have an impressive progress report.
You can tell me nothing happened.
You can tell me you started, stopped, forgot, hated it or realised you couldn’t afford it.
That is not an awkward interruption to the consultation. That is part of the consultation.
We look at what happened. Did we misunderstand the barrier? Was the step too big? Did we choose something that wasn’t your priority?
I would rather work with an honest “absolutely not” than a very polite “yes” that leaves you carrying another expectation.
You are not here to make me feel successful. We are here to work out what is useful for you.

You can tell me what you eat without presenting the evidence for the defence.
“I had toast, but it was a busy day, and I was going to make something else…”
You can stop at toast.
We can talk honestly about food, nourishment and relevant health needs without making your lunch a statement about how well you are doing at life.
I’m interested in what you enjoy, what you can manage, what gets in the way and what might be useful to explore.
If we discuss a change, there should be a reason—and room for you to say whether it fits.

You do not need to leave an appointment carrying a large bag to prove something useful happened.
Sometimes the useful part is understanding a pattern. Sometimes it is knowing which question to take to your GP. Sometimes it is finding one manageable place to begin.
When I suggest a supplement, I want us to discuss its purpose, the evidence, relevant safety considerations, the cost and how we’ll review it.
“I cannot see myself keeping up with that” is also useful information.
As someone who is not wildly enthusiastic about an elaborate supplement routine myself, I would rather hear the truth than receive a polite nod.
The bottles are not the relationship. You are.

Yes, I’m animistic.

(I believe that places, spaces, animals, herbs, plants etc carry and tell a story. Right relationship with nature and respect for what we are privileged to call our home. Indigenous and traditional beliefs as well as seasonal harvests are respected and offered deep reverence, permission and gratitude))

I also think a recommendation should survive contact with an ordinary Tuesday.
An approach can feel meaningful and still need to account for your budget, food preferences, family responsibilities and the fact that you do not have a spare three hours every morning.
We can make room for what matters to you without turning looking after yourself into an elaborate production.
And you do not have to share my beliefs to work with me. They are not an entrance requirement or a substitute for explaining why I’m recommending something.
There is room for meaning. There is also room for practical questions like, “How much washing-up does this involve?”

Over twenty years in practice, and I regret to report that knowing why something might help has not given me an unlimited enthusiasm for doing it.
I’m not naturally excited about taking supplements. I do not look at a complicated new routine and think, “Excellent. More administration.”
So when you tell me, “I know what I’m supposed to do, but it just isn’t happening,” I’m not preparing a speech about commitment.
I’m interested in the bit between knowing and doing.
What is getting in the way? What are we asking too much of? Is there a simpler approach—or a different starting point altogether?
You don’t need another person explaining the things louder.
Sometimes you need someone to help make them possible.
Check out my website on how we can make this happen!

Not every goal needs a before-and-after montage and emotionally manipulative background music.

Maybe what you would like is a less complicated lunchtime.
A clearer understanding of your care.
A plan you don’t dread opening.
Or enough breathing room to enjoy an ordinary evening.

Those are things we can talk about and work towards. You don’t need to make your goals sound more impressive for me to take them seriously. That is performative, we are doing doing performative here. Integrity, authenticity and aligned action is important.
When we review your care, I’m interested in what has changed in ways that matter to you—and what still needs attention.
“Tuesday felt a bit more manageable” is a conversation I’m very interested in having.

25/10/2026

I’m not aiming to become the person you feel you need to consult before making lunch.

I want you to understand what we’re exploring, why we’re considering certain options and when further support or assessment matters.

You should feel able to ask questions, recognise when something isn’t working and participate in decisions—not simply wait for your next set of instructions.

That doesn’t mean everyone should manage alone. Ongoing care can have a useful place, and I’ll explain any follow-up I recommend.

But needing support and being encouraged into dependence are not the same thing.
I bring knowledge and guidance. I’m not applying to become the managing director of you, no one other than you should be doing that.
