ABOUT ME
Hi there!
I’m Beth - a degree qualified naturopathic herbalist with a passion for finding and supporting the root caused of your health concerns.
I love working with people just like you who struggle with gut health, energy, or women’s health.
However, my special interest and the thing that lights me up is supporting Neurodiverse people (both diagnosed and undiagnosed, medicated or not) . I am committed to walking with my clients to enhance their quality of life and removing the barriers that exist in their world that were contributing to the burnout cycle, feeling overwhelmed and consistent chronic stress.
I get what it can feel like with an in-built Ferrari engine paired with bicycle breaks for a mind. From my own personal ADHD challenges I understand how it can feel like there is no end to the all or nothing cycle. But there is a better way that allows you to live your dream life with out burnout or overwhelm creeping up on you.
Ecotone Health
a new way to experience Health

Ecotone Health was founded in 2023 by Beth Attard, a passionate degree qualified and registered naturopathic herbalist who believes true health comes from living in harmony with the seasons and cycles of the natural world.
After years of personal health challenges, seeing clients struggle with chronic symptoms and a lack of holistic care, Beth knew there had to be a better way.

The journey began 10 years ago, living in Whistler, British Columbia - experiencing seasonal affective disorder - Beth soon learned the forests surrounding her not only were beautiful but harboured rich and diverse plant medicine to support her healing journey.
Over time - Beth built her knowledge of the local herbal medicines and began to work with them by crafting herbal remedies - tinctures, elixirs creams, slaves and even started a side hustle of wildcrafted herbal infused food products such as kombuchas, kraut, vegan yoghurts and more.
Beth continued building on her wholistic health and regenerative farming practices over several years as she travelled in her beloved Vassilisa the GMC Van across the North American continent.
After 2.5years, 60,000km and a yearning to share her skills, Beth returned to Australia. After careful consideration, Beth realised for optimal client care she needed to build her clincial skills- she embarked on B. Health Medicine (Western Herbal Medicine). During this time she continued to deepen her understanding of herbs, and the human body, pharmacology, current medical paradigm etc.
During her course- Beth faced recurrent burnout and no amount of herbs, or supplements could keep it at bay. Soon after graduating Beth was diagnosed with ADHD.
Beth's health journey is still ongoing as she continues to make small changes to her life to eliminate the debilitating overwhelm, chronic stress, and musculoskeletal pain she has experienced.
Beth utilised her extensive knowledge and experience to create conditions for health and healing to occur. Tools such as pathology, functional testing alongside honouring seasons and cycles of the natural world, choosing to focus on foundational aspects of health to build a truly resilient and healthful bodymindspirit.

By taking an ecosystem approach to health, Beth helps patients uncover the root causes of their symptoms. She sees the body and the world in which we live as an interconnected web - if one part is out of balance, it affects the whole.
At Ecotone Health, treatments aren't one-size-fits-all. Beth takes time to listen deeply and design personalised care plans using herbal medicine, nutritional medicine, and lifestyle changes. She partners with each patient, educating and empowering them to take an active role in their healing.
The clinic's name, Ecotone, reflects the brand's belief that health resides in the spaces between - where disciplines overlap and a holistic view can emerge. Just like an ecotone in nature, where two ecosystems meet and integrate, Ecotone Health bridges modern science and traditional wisdom.
Ecotone Health vision is one of hope, partnership and discovering one's innate healing ability. Ecotone Health provides a nurturing ecosystem where people can reconnect with their health potential and thrive. The message is simple: true vitality comes from within. By uncovering root causes, patients can transform their health and reclaim whole-person wellbeing.
