Cath Lilburn
Welcome!
With over 25 years of clinical experience, I support people through life’s key health transitions, from managing stress and fatigue to navigating perimenopause, immune challenges, and cancer recovery. My approach combines the wisdom of herbal medicine with the clarity of evidence-based practice, creating personalised, compassionate care that fits alongside conventional treatment when needed.
​
I was trained in traditional herbal medicine by Herbalist Dorothy Hall and I blend herbal wisdom with modern clinical science to support patients. I hold a degree in Evidence Based Medicine and continue to expand my knowledge through research and mentoring.
​
​​At the heart of my work is a simple philosophy: true healing begins when we listen, to the body, to nature, and to each other. I’m passionate about helping people feel heard, understood, and supported, using herbal medicine not just as treatment, but as a path to reconnection and resilience.

Meet Cath
Naturopathic Herbalist
My path as a herbalist began under the guidance of the late Dorothy Hall, one of Australia’s most respected traditional herbalists. Her teachings shaped my deep respect for the art, intuition, and individuality of herbal medicine, values that continue to guide every aspect of my work today. Over time, I’ve integrated this traditional foundation with modern scientific research, bridging two worlds of healing to support whole-person wellbeing.
​
I hold a Bachelor of Medicine Management (Professional Honours in Complementary Medicine) and continue to expand my knowledge through ongoing study, clinical mentoring, and research. My published work on the therapeutic potential of medicinal mushrooms, including Reishi, has been recognised by the NHAA and informs aspects of my current practice.
I am dedicated to supporting women on the perimenopausal journey and beyond and have presented on this topic. As a practitioner however, I am commited to supporting anyone in need through personalised and holistic care.

In 2024 I became an Australian Ambassador for the ICNM which holds the Integrative and Naturopathic Medicine World Congress. I'm excited to be part of the ICNM team and spreading the word on ICNM 2026 held in Paris next July!
