About me
If you want to improve your digestion, energy, mood or thyroid health, you've come to the right place!
My approach takes the best scientific research, and tailors it to fit your unique needs and lifestyle. Your health plan therefore feels truly do-able and brings solid results.
Having conquered my own illnesses through nutrition, I know what it's like to try nutritional therapy for the first time and this gives me compassion and insight into what new clients want and need.
My clients routinely increase their sense of wellbeing, while gaining great habits that bring long-term benefit.
With a background in academic research, I qualified at the UK's longest-established nutrition training school, the Institute of Optimum Nutrition.
I see clients from the UK and abroad, online via Zoom.

Training, qualifications & experience
Dip ION, mBANT, CNHC
I have undertaken extra training with the Kharrazian Institute in offering individualised support for people with hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's.
Particular experience working with a range of thyroid conditions and also autoimmune conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis.
Member organisations
The CNHC encompasses many types of alternative therapy, including massage, aromatherapy and nutrition.
In order to be admitted to the register a practitioner must have studied to the National Occupational Standards for that profession/discipline, or have reached the equivalent of the National Occupational Standards through other relevant training or at least three years of experience and been assessed by their peers.
A practitioner must also have professional insurance and agree to abide by the CNHC Code of Conduct, Performance and Ethics.
The British Association for Applied Nutrition and Nutritional Therapy is the professional body for Nutritional Therapists.
There are different BANT membership classes, including Full Member, Fellow Member and Student Member.
All BANT practitioners must have met the required standards of training, be fully insured and adhere to the BANT Code of Ethics and Practice.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
Nutrition topics
Information about health conditions (*)
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. If you have been diagnosed with - or suspect you may have - any of these conditions, please speak to your doctor before starting nutritional therapy or making any major changes to your diet or lifestyle.
