Both my kids have eczema. The oldest, now nine, appears to have grown out of it. I went down all the nutrition rabbit holes when he was a toddler to no avail. My six year old had a bad flair that lasted for months and months and we finally found a good pediatric dermatologist who helped us clear it up in a matter of days. Miracle worker! If you're in the Puget Sound, which it sounds like you might be, I recommend East Side Dermatology: https://eastsidedermwa.com/ We saw Dr. Wheatley, who is currently on maternity leave, but it's worth checking out the other providers in the practice.

Also, maybe switch to a different naturopath who uses current evidence-based practices? We love Amy Hobson at Meridian Medicine in North Seattle for my kids. She's great. https://www.meridianandessential.com/dr-amy-hobson
