Wongan Ballidu Who's Who
Public Profile
I love to camp searching for orchids amongst the scrub.
I love the work I do supporting others to empower themselves, it is my greatest joy.
I am a Mum to two gorgeous teenage girls, married to a big hearted Man - we have chooks, geese, dogs and ducks on our hills property in Lesmurdie.
Silverdale Natural Therapy
My work sits at the intersection of body, mind, and spirit. Bowen Therapy is at the core of my practice — a gentle, hands-on technique that works with the body's fascia and nervous system to relieve pain, ease tension, and support the body's own capacity to heal. Alongside this, I offer Flower Essence Therapy, which uses the subtle energy of flowers to support emotional and spiritual wellbeing, and EFT (tapping), a practical tool for calming the nervous system and shifting stuck emotional patterns.
For those wanting more personalised guidance, I offer Flower Essence Readings to help identify what essences best support you, and Baihui Flower Healing Sessions, a unique offering combining energetic and flower-based healing for clarity and calm. For clients ready for deeper, sustained change, my signature program, Free Yourself, is a 3-month journey weaving together Bowen, flower essences, and emotional support tools.
I work with people at every stage of their healing journey — those seeking relief from acute pain, those managing long-term chronic conditions, and those doing deeper emotional or spiritual work. Whatever brings you to my practice, whether it's a nagging injury, an anxious mind, or simply a feeling that something needs to shift, my approach is to meet you exactly where you are and support your body, mind, and spirit in finding their way back to balance.
I offer sessions from my clinic in the Perth Hills, with bookings available online.

Distinguished and Famous people from Wongan Ballidu
🌿 James Drummond and John Gilbert
Botanist James Drummond and naturalist John Gilbert visited the Wongan Hills in 1842 to collect scientific specimens. Gilbert's work supplied material for John Gould's studies of Australian birds, while Drummond's plant collecting helped document the region's distinctive flora. Their local connection is a scientific expedition, rather than a birthplace or permanent home. The hills' combination of vegetation and wildlife continued to attract naturalists long afterwards. The European collecting record forms one part of a much longer knowledge of Country held by the area's Aboriginal communities.
🗺️ John Septimus Roe
Surveyor-General John Septimus Roe travelled through the Wongan Hills in 1836, recording country that already carried Aboriginal names and significance. Mount Matilda was named for his wife. The district's later colonial mapping and natural-history work followed such journeys, before the twentieth-century development of the town and wheat farms. Roe's connection is the documented surveying expedition. It places the hills within his wider work across Western Australia without presenting him as their first human discoverer, or confusing an exploratory visit with the later history of settlement.
🤝 Brian Donnellan
Brian Donnellan was born in Wongan Hills and returned to community life after Army service in 1969. He joined the volunteer fire brigade that year, later serving as captain and earning life membership. His work also included the RSL, local government, justice-of-the-peace duties and preserving district history. Council named him Citizen of the Year in 2026. Among the practical fundraising efforts, he helped cart hay to buy bricks for the fire station. The old hospital where he was born later became the museum with which he was involved—another pleasing loop in a long local life.
