Sara is a Senior Clinical Lead at The Optimum Health Clinic, where she has supported individuals with chronic fatigue and complex health conditions since 2017. Her work focuses on multi system conditions including post viral syndromes, immune dysregulation, chronic infections and environmentally triggered illness.
Sara began her first career in senior management within the fashion industry before a cancer diagnosis led her to explore nutrition and integrative medicine as part of her recovery. During this time, she experienced significant fatigue and periods of being largely bed bound, giving her direct insight into the realities of living with limited energy, restrictions and fluctuating capacity.
This experience led her to retrain as a Registered Nutritional Therapist and Naturopath, with a clear clinical focus on both fatigue-based conditions and complex health presentations that require a more individualised and paced clinical approach.
Her clinical work is structured and personalised, following OHC’s wider systems-based approach which integrates nutrition, lifestyle medicine and targeted supplementation where appropriate. She undertakes ongoing postgraduate training in areas including immune dysfunction, chronic infections, mould and mycotoxins, mitochondrial and metabolic health, ensuring her work remains aligned with current research and evolving clinical practice.
Sara is particularly experienced in supporting clients over the longer term, helping them to build momentum through the OHC foundational work, and then adapting their clinical roadmap as their capacity and health needs evolve. She understands the importance of pacing, consistency and realistic goal setting within recovery.
Sara is known for her calm, perceptive and compassionate approach. She always aims to create an inclusive space where clients feel understood and supported. Her work is grounded in evidence-informed practice, with a collaborative focus on helping clients better understand their symptoms, build resilience and work towards meaningful improvements in function and quality of life.
