About

Emily Gibbs

Clinical Naturopath (BHSc) Functional Medicine Practitioner

EMME Naturopathy was founded by Clinical Naturopath Emily Gibbs, who holds a Bachelor of Health Science in Naturopathy and is a member of the Australian Natural Therapists Association (ANTA).

Emily’s path into naturopathic medicine began after her own difficult and disappointing experiences with mainstream medical management of her health concerns in her early twenties. Seeking answers, she became deeply interested in nutrition, holistic wellness, and the connection between physical and mental health. Her love of nutritional science — paired with a long-standing interest in psychology — naturally led her to the field of naturopathy, where she found a modality that aligned with both her values and her lived experience.

With extensive clinical experience in nutritional medicine, herbal medicine, and functional testing, Emily is dedicated to helping clients uncover the root causes of their symptoms and build long-term, sustainable wellbeing. She has a particular passion for gut health and microbiome balance, as well as mental health presentations including anxiety, chronic fatigue, ADHD, cognitive decline, burnout, and stress-related conditions.

Emily works with clients across all ages and stages of life and is known for her calm, thorough, evidence-based approach. Research-focused and clinically curious, she spends time each week exploring the latest findings in complex medical conditions to ensure every treatment plan is effective, personalised, and grounded in science.

Her mission through EMME Naturopathy is simple: to provide compassionate, clear, and evidence-based natural healthcare that genuinely helps people feel better — and stay well — from the inside out.
