Where do you see yourself?

You’re the one everyone relies on. You get it all done: the school run, the deadline, the dinner on the table, and nobody would guess what it’s costing you. Maybe it’s the fog that makes you re-read the same email four times. The rage that arrives out of nowhere and scares you a little. The nights you’re wired at 2am, then can’t get out of bed at 7. The feeling that you’re watching your own life from slightly outside it. You’ve explained this to more than one GP. You’ve been told it’s stress. Told to sleep more, drink less coffee, try yoga. You’ve nodded, because what else can you do, and gone home still not knowing. If any of this sounds like your Tuesday, you’re in the right place.

You’re in the right place

You’ve spent long enough not feeling like yourself. Maybe you’ve tried to get answers and been sent away with nothing. Maybe you’ve been told it’s stress, or anxiety, or just getting older. The truth is simpler than that: perimenopause, ADHD, burnout and mental health overlap in ways most 15-minute GP appointments were never built to untangle. One symptom gets treated. The rest gets missed. Here, hormones, neurology and emotional health are looked at together, in one appointment, with someone who has 35 years of clinical experience and actually has time to listen. No rushed appointments. No dismissed symptoms. No piecing it together yourself anymore. And if you already know what you need, we have that too.

The Finally Know Consultation

For women who know something has changed but can’t explain why.

One appointment. The whole picture. Hormones, neurology and emotional health assessed together, not one referral at a time.

You’ll leave with a written summary in plain English, a clear plan where clinically appropriate, referral letters if needed, and 14 days of direct email access. Phone or video, no camera required. Payment after your appointment, not before.

No GP referral needed to book.

ADHD Assessment & Diagnostic Clarification Pathway

For women wondering whether longstanding overwhelm, masking, emotional exhaustion, executive dysfunction or lifelong coping struggles may relate to ADHD.

This is a pathway to get a clear answer. Led by a Nurse Practitioner with the clinical authority to assess and diagnose, with a structured pathway that satisfies regulatory requirements across all Australian states.

No GP referral needed to book.

No Medicare rebate, here’s the honest reason why.

Medicare funds GP consultations: a single problem, a standard timeframe, a referral if needed. It was never built for this. This is a 60-minute integrated assessment covering hormonal, neurological and emotional health together. That sits outside what Medicare reimburses, not because it’s less legitimate, but because it’s more comprehensive. No referral needed. No waitlist. Payment after your appointment, not before.


Not hormones, not ADHD, something else? We have you covered.


                                                                 Before you book, a few honest answers

“I’ve already tried everything: supplements, GPs, forums. Will this be different?” Most women who book have already done the research. What’s usually missing isn’t information, it’s someone qualified to put it all together and actually act on it in one appointment.

“What if it’s not one thing, what if it’s everything at once?” That’s exactly what this consultation is built for. Hormones, neurology and emotional health are assessed together, not treated as separate problems needing separate appointments.

“Do I need a referral, or a diagnosis already, to book?” No. You don’t need to have it figured out, and you don’t need a GP referral to start.


You have spent long enough not knowing.

You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of what’s happening, a personalised plan, and access to evidence-based treatment options where appropriate.

After more than 35 years in healthcare

Rachel Smith, Nurse Practitioner, Health Smitten
Meet Rachel Smith, an endorsed Nurse Practitioner with more than 35 years of healthcare experience. I’ve learned that women are often carrying far more than anyone realises: many women quietly carry enormous emotional, mental and physical loads while continuing to minimise their own struggles.
Health Smitten was created to offer something different: longer appointments, thoughtful conversations and care that looks at the bigger picture rather than isolated symptoms alone.
My background includes mental health, rural and remote healthcare, women’s wellbeing and supporting people through periods of overwhelm, transition and complexity.
I believe women deserve healthcare where they feel heard, respected, unrushed, taken seriously and supported over time.
You do not need to have everything figured out before asking for support.
As an endorsed Nurse Practitioner, I provide comprehensive assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning and ongoing care for women experiencing ADHD, perimenopause, mental health concerns and complex health challenges. Where appropriate, this may include referrals, investigations and evidence-based treatment options.
As a Nurse Practitioner, Rachel holds a Master of Nurse Practitioner the highest level of clinical nursing qualification in Australia and is qualified to assess, diagnose, prescribe treatments, request pathology and imaging, and make referrals
