Brooke Oke
Owner of Goodkind Naturopathy, Naturopath and Mental Health Nurse (BHSc, BN, PostGradDipMHN)
Brooke’s experience and knowledge from her Nursing career is weaved into the treatment approach for Naturopathy. She is the owner of Goodkind Naturopathy and has established herself as a well known Naturopath who gets people real results.
Although science, evidence basis and research are all central to treatment and understanding, it is well acknowledged by Brooke that respect and attention must be given to the tradition and ancient notions of Naturopathic medicine. Combining both empirical knowledge and modern day evidence to provide the best possible outcomes for her clients is Brooke’s priority. Brooke has completed over eight years of tertiary education & practiced as a Registered Nurse specialising in mental health for almost a decade.
Over the last few years of working in clinical Naturopathic practice, Brooke has gained special insights and experience working with various digestive issues, skin conditions, vaginal microbiome disorders, hormones and emotional health. Utilising functional testing is at the core of finding the root cause for illness, so this is often incorporated into her client's treatment.
Her books are currently full for new clients, however you can email to join the waitlist for a consultation.
Brooke has recently onboarded Briana (Naturopath) to reduce the wait time for new clients wishing to start their journey with Goodkind. Briana has been mentored extensively by Brooke and treats with the same root-cause approach.

A little about Brooke as a human
Working in healthcare for a long time has allowed me to meet so many amazing and interesting individuals, connecting to and helping others is what gets me out of bed in the morning and what keeps me so invested in what I do! I thrive off doing the simple things in life, things such as cooking, walks outdoors, swims in the ocean, coffee with friends, reading, dancing, painting and making things with my hands.
Shifting my lens from Nursing to Naturopathy naturally occurred after my own personal health journey many years ago, I have dealt with endometriosis from age 17, chronic gut issues and depression for a long time in my teen years. It wasn’t until I found Naturopathic medicine that I really took control of my health and wellbeing and learned how to better deal with these conditions and take back my happy healthy life!
I strongly believe that having a diagnosed health condition isn’t a life sentence, it is something we can help heal or gain control over and there are always options to treat, you just have to find what works for you, and to me that is where Naturopathy can provide many beautiful options.
