Meet Amy

Hi, I’m Amy Castle - a degree-qualified naturopath based in Mornington, Victoria.

I offer consultations face-to-face at Peninsula Herbal Dispensary and online via telehealth across Australia, specialising in chronic gut, genitourinary, and cardiometabolic health conditions.

Over the past decade, I’ve walked beside hundreds of people who felt unheard, overwhelmed, or stuck in their health journey. Through careful listening, evidence-based functional testing, and individualised care plans, I help people find their way back to clarity, strength, and lasting wellness.

My approach is grounded in science and guided by compassion, with deep respect for both modern research and traditional herbal wisdom.

My Why

I became a naturopath to be the kind of practitioner I once wished for myself - someone who doesn’t dismiss symptoms, who keeps working to find answers, and who never underestimates the power of feeling heard.

Helping patients uncover underlying causes, feel seen, and reclaim hope after years of struggle is what drives everything I do. I genuinely love this work -  the detective work, the moments of clarity, the transformations that happen when the right support is finally found.

Whether it’s helping someone overcome persistent gut issues, improving genitourinary microbiome balance or reducing cardiovascular risk factors - my mission is always the same: to create a safe, compassionate space where true, sustainable healing can begin.
