Hi, I'm Tara Thorne.
Holistic Nutritionist, Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, Certified Microbiome Restoration Centre Practitioner, Certified Functional Nutrition Coach, and Certified Microbiome Analyst.
But for ease, let’s just call me a Functional Health Practitioner.
I’ve had my share of hormonal issues. It started with severe acne in my teenage years, for which my doctor prescribed The Pill and Accutane – Band-Aid “solutions” that can do way more harm than good. Then came the PMS in my 20s—water retention, mood swings, sore breasts, migraines, and anxiety-induced insomnia. The “solution” from a doctor? More Band-Aids—this time in the form of Xanax.
When I moved from Australia to Canada at 27, I experienced a crippling bout of anxiety. And—surprise, surprise—yet again, I was handed more Band-Aids: Clonazepam and Zoloft. But deep down, I knew these medications weren’t the real solution. I didn’t have a deficiency in pharmaceuticals—I had a body crying out for balance.
So I began digging. I needed to understand why I had these symptoms and how to truly heal. But learning everything I needed to, took time—and in the meantime, I went on to suffer from postpartum thyroiditis and anxiety after the birth of my daughters.
After years of struggling and then immersing myself in studying women’s hormones, functional testing, therapeutic supplements, nutrition, the nervous system, and so much more, I now—deep in my perimenopausal years—feel better in my 40s than I did in my 20s.
Through studying, research, ongoing mentorships with global specialists, and over a decade of clinical experience, I’ve gained the knowledge I now bring to my clients—so they don’t have to struggle like I did or try to figure it all out on their own.
I’ve helped thousands of women around the world regain their confidence, rebuild their self-esteem, and overcome debilitating symptoms—and you can too.
