About me
As a fully registered nutritional therapist, I specialise in food addiction recovery, emotional eating, & those navigating an alcohol free life.
My clients have difficult & often complicated relationships with food, leading to years of weight issues, uncontrollable food cravings, crazy diets, dysfunctional body image thoughts, & eating to soothe emotional states, such as stress, sadness & boredom.
Their behaviour can leave them feeling ashamed, guilty, and utterly hopeless. Negative repercussions in family, social & work life can often occur.
I help them find hope again, by supporting them on a path to food freedom.
I help them understand that addiction is a brain illness.
The journey is not simply about diet changes & weight loss. It will include new ways of thinking, changing established mindsets, & discovering joy & pleasure in life again.
I help them discover their 'why' - their personal goals, which are so vital in changing behaviour towards improved health & optimism, less anxiousness, & creating a life 'you don't want to run away from'.
I offer an environment of compassion, & healing from emotional discomfort, often working through root causes.
Addiction is now more prevalent than ever before, but there is always hope of recovery.
I offer one-off consultations, or packages of 3 and 6 months. I am happy to see clients in person or via Zoom.
