Jacinta Siscos (formerly Barbagallo) is a clinical nutritionist, herbalist, and founder of Orenda Women's Health — a practice built over six years into one of Australia's most trusted names in integrative skin and women's health.

Through years of clinical experience, Jacinta has identified consistent patterns across clients presenting with both skin and reproductive conditions; connections that conventional approaches often overlook. Her work is deeply rooted in science, but always clinically practical, because she knows that not every client fits neatly into a textbook.

Central to her approach is collaboration. Jacinta works closely alongside skin therapists and dermal clinicians, pairing internal investigation and personalised treatment plans with external in-clinic care; because the best results come when both sides work together.

At the core of everything she does is one guiding principle: get back to basics. Optimal health doesn't have to be complicated, and Jacinta is passionate about coaching clients through sustainable lifestyle changes that create real, lasting change.

Laura Wheeler is a degree-qualified naturopath with a deep specialisation in supporting women through complex skin conditions including topical steroid withdrawal, eczema, acne, and psoriasis.

What makes Laura's perspective truly unique is that she has lived it. Having navigated topical steroid withdrawal and chronic eczema herself in her early twenties, Laura experienced the significant physical and emotional weight of these conditions first-hand. That lived experience isn't just part of her story — it's the foundation of her clinical empathy and the reason she is so deeply committed to this space.

Laura adopts an evidence-based, holistic approach, drawing on functional testing, herbal medicine, nutritional supplementation, and dietary and lifestyle guidance to support her clients through what can be an isolating and misunderstood healing journey. She recognises that everyone has their own story, and is a strong advocate for patient-centred, individualised care.

At this event, Laura will bring both the clinical and the personal — offering a perspective on TSW and eczema that is as grounded in science as it is in lived experience.

Natalia Fiedor is a Bachelor degree-qualified Naturopath specialising in the relationship between skin, gut, and hormonal health — and she knows firsthand what it feels like when nothing seems to work.

Having experienced severe acne as a teenager and found little relief through conventional approaches, Natalia's personal frustration became her professional purpose. She is deeply committed to uncovering root causes rather than chasing symptoms — particularly the role that gut dysfunction plays in skin conditions. IBS, bloating, and food sensitivities are often silent drivers of persistent skin presentations, and addressing them internally is central to how Natalia gets her clients results.

Drawing on herbal medicine, nutrition, and lifestyle medicine, Natalia takes a whole-body approach that leaves clients feeling heard, supported, and equipped with a clear path forward.

Maria Doubrovski is a Bachelor-qualified Clinical Herbalist and Complementary Medicine practitioner, currently completing her Advanced Clinical Nutrition degree. Raised within a Slavic heritage surrounded by traditional herbal remedies, Maria developed a deep appreciation for the healing power of nature from a young age and today weaves that ancestral wisdom seamlessly with evidence-based naturopathic practice.

A central focus of Maria's clinical work is the gut-nervous system-skin connection. She recognises that for many clients, skin conditions don't exist in isolation; they are often the visible result of what's quietly unfolding beneath the surface. Digestive dysfunction, nervous system dysregulation, anxiety, and chronic stress all leave their mark on the skin, and Maria's approach is to investigate and treat these underlying drivers rather than simply manage what's showing up externally. By supporting gut integrity, calming the nervous system, and addressing the emotional load that so often accompanies chronic skin conditions, she helps clients experience shifts that go far beyond surface-level relief.

Having personally experienced anxiety, digestive challenges, and recurring skin conditions, Maria brings a level of empathy to her work that can't be taught. She understands the frustration of feeling like your body is working against you and is committed to creating a space where clients feel truly heard, supported, and empowered with practical, personalised tools to move forward.
