About me

Hi, I am a Nutritional Therapist and a Metabolic Balance Practitioner. I am passionate about nutrition and lifestyle medicine and believe this is the future of healthcare. I work closley with my clients on a 1:1 basis offering a holistic journey to health and wellbeing. My areas of specialism are weight management, fatigue, digestion, metabolic and hormonal imbalances. I have supported many people on their wellness journey and helped them feel at their best!

I do not advocate diets or short-term quick fixes. Instead, I empower my clients to make intelligent food choices that eventually kick-start a lifetime of healthy eating. It's simple when you have a helping hand along the way and when you are presented with a nutritionally balanced food plan that is unique and right for you.

I recognise that we are all unique and that what works for one may not work for others, which is why I use a personalised approach to tackle weight and health concerns. I have been trained to 'connect-the-dots' using a functional medicine approach to identify core imbalances that need addressing alongside nutrition. I work collaboratively with Functional Medicine (FM) practitioners Dr Indra and Dr Ailsa and we are proud to be the first multidisciplinary FM clinic in the North. Being part of this set up allows our team to tailor a holistic assessment to meet complex individual needs. We also offer comprehensive testing and phlebotomy appointments at our clinic.

I am a professional member of BANT and registered with the CNHC association. Our practice is evidence-based and we regularly attend lectures, seminars and CPD events to keep us up to date with the evolving research in this fascinating field of nutrition and lifestyle medicine
