About me

Hi, I'm Beth.

I'm a degree-qualified naturopath and clinical herbalist, and the founder of Lazenby Wellness.

I believe healthcare should leave you with more than a list of symptoms and a collection of things to try. You deserve to understand your health — what may be contributing to the way you feel, what your body is telling you, and what you can realistically do about it.

My work is particularly focused on complex gut health and digestive health, supporting people experiencing concerns such as IBS, bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, food reactions and ongoing digestive discomfort.

I also have a special interest in thyroid health, healthy ageing and vitality, helping people take a proactive approach to their health as they get older — with a focus on energy, metabolic health, cardiovascular health, brain health and long-term wellbeing.

A little about my journey

My interest in naturopathy isn't just professional — it started with my own health.

At 18, I was diagnosed with IBS. I was experiencing ongoing digestive symptoms and, like many people with gut issues, I was looking for answers and a way to actually feel better. At the time, I didn't feel I had the support or direction I needed to understand what was happening.

Years later, in my mid-twenties, I saw a naturopath for the first time.

That experience changed everything.

For the first time, I had someone take the time to look beyond the label of IBS and consider the bigger picture of my health. We explored my symptoms, nutrition, lifestyle and individual health history, and I began to understand that there was more to my digestive health than simply having a diagnosis.

It was this experience that sparked my passion for naturopathic medicine and ultimately led me to study Natural Medicine and become a qualified naturopath and clinical herbalist.

I know what it feels like to have ongoing gut symptoms and not know where to turn next. I also know how empowering it can be when someone takes the time to listen, investigate and actually explain what may be happening.

That experience continues to shape the way I work with my clients today.

My goal is to give people the kind of clarity and personalised support that I was looking for when I first began my own health journey.

Special Interests

  • The gut is far more than digestion.

    Your gastrointestinal system interacts with your immune system, metabolism, nervous system and overall nutritional status. When digestion isn't functioning well, the effects can extend far beyond your stomach.

    I have a particular interest in complex gut health, supporting people experiencing concerns such as:

    IBS • Bloating • Constipation • Diarrhoea • SIBO • Digestive discomfort • Food reactions • Dysbiosis • Reflux

    Rather than assuming every digestive problem has the same solution, I look at your individual symptoms, health history, diet, lifestyle and wider health picture to understand what may be contributing.

  • Sometimes the clinical picture gives us the information we need. Sometimes we need to investigate further.

    I have a particular interest in the appropriate use of functional testing to provide additional information where it may help guide your care.

    Depending on your individual presentation, this may include testing relating to areas such as microbiome testing, digestive health, nutritional status, hormones or other aspects of health.

    Testing isn't automatically prescribed, and more testing isn't always better. I believe every test should have a purpose — helping us answer a specific question, understand your health more clearly or make a more informed decision about your care.

    The goal isn't to collect more data. It's to make the data useful.

  • The thyroid plays an important role in metabolism, energy production, temperature regulation and many other processes throughout the body.

    I have an interest in supporting people with thyroid health, particularly where symptoms such as fatigue, changes in weight, digestive concerns, low mood or changes in energy may be part of a broader health picture.

    Naturopathic care can sit alongside appropriate medical assessment and management, with a focus on nutrition, lifestyle and individualised natural support.

  • Getting older shouldn't mean accepting that feeling tired, flat or unwell is simply part of ageing.

    I'm interested in helping people take a proactive approach to healthy ageing, supporting the foundations that influence how we feel and function over time.

    This may include areas such as:

    Energy & vitality • Metabolic health • Cardiovascular health • Brain health • Digestive health • Nutrition • Lifestyle

    The aim isn't to chase an unrealistic idea of "anti-ageing".

    It's about supporting the health, resilience and vitality that allow you to keep doing the things that matter to you.

Get Started

My Approach to Gut Health

Your symptoms are information.

  • A purple illustration of a sliced fig showing the interior with seeds and pulp.

    01 — Listen

    Your consultation starts with your story.

    We look at your symptoms, when they started, what makes them better or worse, your health history, medications, supplements, diet, lifestyle, stress, sleep and your goals.

    Because two people with the same diagnosis can have very different reasons for why they are experiencing it.

  • Stylized cartoon illustration of a pink strawberry with seeds.

    02 - Investigate

    Sometimes your history and symptoms provide enough information to begin.

    Sometimes we need more.

    Where appropriate, I may recommend functional testing or work alongside your existing healthcare team and conventional investigations to gather additional information.

    Testing should answer a question — not simply give us more numbers.

  • Digital illustration of a lime with a few orange dots and attached leaves.

    03 - Understand

    I don't want you to leave your consultation wondering why you've been given a particular protocol.

    I believe in explaining the why behind your recommendations.

    We'll look at what may be contributing to your symptoms, what we're trying to achieve and how the different pieces of your health fit together.

  • Drawn illustration of an orange with a green stem and leaves, featuring some small green dots near the top right and bottom left.

    04 - Personalise

    Your plan needs to work in your actual life.

    Rather than handing you an enormous list of foods you can't eat and a cupboard full of supplements, I aim to create a practical, individualised approach that considers your preferences, routines, goals and capacity for change.

  • A stylized, light green apple with a darker green outline, a leaf and stem, and the initials 'LW' in the center.

    05 - Review & Refine

    Health isn't always linear.

    Your plan can change as your symptoms change and as we learn more about your individual response.

    Follow-up consultations give us the opportunity to assess your progress, review results, adjust your recommendations and decide on the next step.
