About me
I'm a Registered Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (Reg CNHC, mBANT), Nutrition Network Metabolic Coach Practitioner (NNP) and Member of the Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners (mSMHP).
I specialise in empowering and coaching people with metabolic disease (Type 2 , Insulin Resistance, Hypertension, Dyslipidaemia, Overweight) to reach their goals, gain energy and feel in control of food cravings.
I combine my knowledge of nutritional therapy and functional medicine with Insight based coaching skills, and my many years of experience in care management, plus my own lived experience of overweight and metabolic disease. I don't just give you a list of instructions on what to eat and how to live, I hold your hand throughout, giving you practical, achievable solutions to find your way out of a dark tunnel, to brighter beginnings.
My aim is to empower you for life, not for a quick fix.
