About me

Hi there, I am an HCPC Registered Dietitian with 19 years' experience, supporting clients both within the NHS and privately. I would be delighted to support you too.

Have you had a recent diagnosis of chronic kidney disease and feeling overwhelmed after disappearing down internet rabbit holes? I have worked in specialist kidney units for over 10 years and have some handy blogs on the Kidney Confidence page of my website.

Or, would you like to feel more in control of your diabetes or pre-diabetes. It's never too late and small changes can achieve big benefits. If you have a Freestyle Libre, let's make the best use of all that wonderful information to fine tune your blood glucose control.

Perhaps, it's time to get on top of that longstanding IBS or you simply feel in a rut with your diet and lifestyle, having focussed on everyone else but you for years. Maybe menopause is taking hold, to add insult to injury.

I am trained in a range of behaviour change techniques and look forward to giving you the tools to make informed decisions about your long-term health. I won't try to blind you with science, send you for unnecessary tests nor sell you expensive pills and potions.

To give you a taste of my NHS experience, I have worked at Hammersmith Hospital, Charing Cross Hospital, the Royal Sussex County and Princess Royal Hospitals

Let's have a free chat about how I can help you achieve your health goals. Please do get in touch.

Nutritional therapy can help enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice.
