Morkare Natural Clinic provides personalised naturopathic support for children, teenagers and adults living with ADHD. Our Brisbane practitioners consider sleep, digestive health, energy, nutrition and general wellbeing while working alongside your established medical and allied healthcare team.
Living with ADHD can affect much more than concentration. It may influence sleep, appetite, energy, routines, organisation and the ability to manage everyday responsibilities at school, work or home.
Our role is not to diagnose ADHD or replace recognised ADHD treatment. We provide complementary naturopathic care based on the individual’s health history, current healthcare and the practical concerns affecting their general wellbeing.
In-clinic appointments in Holland Park West, Brisbane, and telehealth consultations Australia-wide.
A naturopath for ADHD can provide complementary support for general health concerns and everyday difficulties that may occur alongside ADHD. Naturopathic care does not diagnose ADHD or replace care from a GP, paediatrician, psychologist or psychiatrist.
At Morkare Natural Clinic, we take time to understand the person’s broader health picture. This may include sleep, digestion, energy, stress, eating habits, appetite, existing health conditions, menstrual or hormonal changes and the demands of school, work and family life.
Recommendations are personalised and may include practical lifestyle guidance, general nutrition support and carefully selected supplements or homeopathic medicines when considered appropriate.
We also consider prescribed medications, current supplements and existing test results. We do not advise patients to stop, reduce or alter prescribed ADHD medication. Concerns about medication, dosage or possible side effects should be discussed with the prescribing practitioner.
ADHD can look different from one person to another. Some people experience noticeable hyperactivity and impulsivity. Others mainly struggle with inattentiveness, forgetfulness, time management, mental overload or maintaining everyday routines.
Our ADHD naturopathic clinic provides individualised complementary care rather than assuming that every person with ADHD has the same health needs.
Parents may seek complementary support when ADHD occurs alongside sleep difficulties, digestive symptoms, low energy, selective eating, irregular appetite or demanding school routines.
Our approach is age-appropriate and considers the needs of both the child and their family.
Explore paediatric naturopathy supportAdults with ADHD may find it difficult to maintain sleep, meal and general health routines or manage their energy across a busy working day.
We focus on manageable recommendations that fit the person’s actual capacity, lifestyle and health priorities.
ADHD in women may be recognised later in life, particularly when inattentiveness and internal overwhelm are more noticeable than outward hyperactivity.
Work demands, parenting, menstrual changes and perimenopause may add another layer of complexity to general health and daily routines.
Learn more about ADHD in womenThere is no single naturopathic programme suitable for everyone with ADHD. Your consultation is guided by your individual health needs, current difficulties, existing healthcare and personal goals.
There is no single diet proven to cure ADHD. However, food and appetite concerns may form part of a person’s broader health picture and can be considered during a naturopathic consultation.
Any nutrition recommendations provided as part of this service are personalised, practical and intended to support general health rather than treat or cure ADHD.
If prescribed ADHD medication is affecting appetite, growth, weight or eating patterns, this should be discussed with the prescribing doctor.
People whose main concern is selective eating, meal planning, appetite or detailed nutrition support may benefit from a more nutrition-focused consultation.
Whether you are seeking support for yourself or your child, our goal is to understand what is making everyday health routines difficult and create a clear, manageable plan around your individual needs.
Morkare provides complementary naturopathic and nutritional healthcare. We do not diagnose ADHD or replace care from your GP, paediatrician, psychologist, psychiatrist or prescribing practitioner.
Your consultation is designed to turn a complicated health picture into a clear and manageable plan. We consider the person as a whole while respecting their ADHD diagnosis, established treatment and individual priorities.
We discuss your current concerns, health history, diagnosis, prescribed medicines, supplements, eating patterns, digestion, sleep, energy and everyday routines.
Together, we identify the areas creating the greatest difficulty. This may include irregular meals, restricted eating, low appetite, sleep disruption, digestive concerns or difficulty following complicated routines.
Your practitioner develops a realistic plan that may include nutrition guidance, meal structure, lifestyle support and carefully selected supplements or homeopathic medicines where clinically appropriate.
Relevant blood tests, specialist reports and previous investigations may be reviewed so recommendations are based on the information already available.
Our naturopathic support is intended to complement care from your GP, paediatrician, psychologist, psychiatrist, dietitian or other healthcare practitioners.
Follow-up consultations allow us to review progress, adjust recommendations and keep the plan practical as needs, routines and health priorities change.
Testing is not automatically required for every child or adult with ADHD. We first review your health history, existing pathology, current symptoms and the reason testing is being considered.
If there is a specific clinical reason, your practitioner may discuss selected testing relating to nutritional status, digestive health or another relevant area of general health.
Testing should answer a useful clinical question and have the potential to influence your health plan. We do not recommend a large panel of tests simply because a person has ADHD.

Some people are interested in understanding inherited traits associated with areas such as nutrient metabolism, methylation, antioxidant processes and general nervous-system pathways.
Where appropriate, Morkare may discuss DNA testing for genetic traits, methylation and nutrigenomics . Results are interpreted alongside your health history, nutrition, symptoms and existing pathology rather than in isolation.
DNA testing does not diagnose ADHD, determine whether someone has ADHD or identify a single genetic cause for their difficulties.
Important distinction: General health-trait or nutrigenomic testing is different from pharmacogenomic testing used within medical care to investigate how genetic variations may influence the processing of certain medicines.
Questions about ADHD medication selection, dosage or pharmacogenomic testing should be discussed with the prescribing medical practitioner.
Yes. People taking prescribed ADHD medication may also seek complementary naturopathic or nutrition support.
During your consultation, please tell your practitioner about all prescription medicines, over-the-counter products and supplements being used. This helps us consider safety, possible interactions and the suitability of any recommendations.
Some people seek nutritional support because medication has affected appetite, meal timing or eating patterns. Others want help making sleep, digestive health or general health routines more manageable.
Morkare does not advise patients to stop, reduce or change prescribed ADHD medication. Any concerns about dosage, effectiveness or possible side effects should be discussed with the prescribing practitioner.
People with ADHD and their families do not need another overwhelming list of instructions. They need thoughtful care, realistic priorities and a plan that can work within everyday life.
Morkare has more than 21 years of clinical experience supporting children, adults and families with personalised naturopathic care.
Our approach has been shaped through more than 32,000 consultations across a wide range of ages, health histories and family circumstances.
We consider the different challenges experienced by children, teenagers, adults and women diagnosed with or living with ADHD.
We aim to reduce overwhelm by prioritising clear, achievable recommendations instead of creating an unnecessarily complicated protocol.
Our naturopathic care is intended to work alongside recognised medical, psychological and allied health support.

There is no single diet that cures ADHD or suits everyone with ADHD. Nutrition support may instead focus on adequate food intake, simple meal routines, food variety, protein, fibre and managing practical concerns such as selective eating or low appetite.
No DNA test offered by Morkare diagnoses ADHD. Morkare may discuss DNA testing for selected health and nutrition-related genetic traits where clinically appropriate. These results provide additional context only and must not be used to determine whether someone has ADHD.
Not necessarily. Testing is considered only when there is a relevant clinical reason and when the result may meaningfully influence general healthcare recommendations. Existing medical tests and reports should be reviewed before additional testing is considered.
