• About Me

    Having worked in a corporate environment for many years I am very familiar with the challenges associated with delivering what the organisation expects from you and working hard at the expense of my own health. I imagined that my health could wait and that I could deal with it later in my life and once my work goals had been met. However, I realised that simply wasn't sustainable and having experienced a life changing event first hand and the impact persistent stress, fatigue and anxiety can have on health and wellbeing it accelerated my desire to understand how I can achieve my career and organisational goals without storing up troubled health now or in later life.

    I decided to pursue my passion for achieving amazing health and study how the human body works, what causes it to go wrong and how good nutrition can prevent illness. It was such a big eye opener for me as I realised how neglecting your body at the expense of your career can have such a detrimental effect on you. I understood the power of good food and started to make changes in the way that I ate and lived my life.

    I feel better now than I did 20 years ago. I feel more energised, less stressed and anxious and can cope with challenges so much better. My productivity has increased significantly, and I can achieve a great deal more in my personal life. I look back at my own life and think how much better it could have been if only I was armed with the knowledge that I have now.

    That is why I want to help you. I am the change that I want others to be. I don't want you to make the same mistakes and I strongly believe that you too should be able to make the changes that you need no matter what your circumstances are. It is never too late to change and feel amazing. I would never recommend anything that I myself would not be prepared to have or do in a similar situation.

    Here’s how I can help you

    I am a Nutritional Therapist which means I apply the latest hypotheses and research in nutrition and health sciences to you and your symptoms and then come up with a diet, lifestyle and (sometimes) supplement plan to support your needs. I also bring in some coaching to help you put the ideas into practice in a meaningful way or break through whatever barriers are holding you back.

    I offer a very personal and tailored approach. I strongly believe that you and I and everyone else are ‘biochemically unique’. That means that there isn’t a single way of eating that is right for you, me or anyone else. For instance I might be suffering from IBS and you want to feel less tired. I might have a history of antibiotic use, while you had your appendix out when you were 14. I might have an intolerance to dairy, while you hate strawberries. I could go on, but you can imagine the thousands of different permutations here. And the fact is that mine or your DNA, previous medical history, and any current symptoms as well as what you like and don’t like, not to mention your personal circumstances are all important when a I create a plan for you or me.

    Whatever I recommend is personalised just for you. That takes both time and skill. You could download something from the internet, if you knew what you were looking for, but it is not the same. As a nutritional therapist I may also work with supplements targeted to a specific condition or your own health goal. This can be a minefield, potentially dangerous and inevitably costly, if you don’t know what you’re doing.

    What can you expect from a Nutritional Therapy Consultation with me?

    Your first consultation will last up to 90 minutes. I will ask you to complete and send back a nutritional therapy questionnaire or food diary before you visit. During the session, we’ll go into your medical history, your health goals and any other challenges you’re facing, what you generally eat, what you like to eat, what you hate to eat and how you have to eat (on the train, in a rush at your desk, and so on). There’s no judgement and anything you share with me is strictly confidential.

    Nutritional therapy sessions are usually sold in programmes that run over 12 weeks and my prices start from £350. This is because it is rarely helpful for you to leave without the knowledge that you need with at least four sessions in place to help you implement the programme, make changes at a pace that suits you, and to deal with any challenges or questions that come up along the way.

    Do you already know what to do but need accountability?

    Knowing what you should be doing is only part of the problem if you are unhappy with an aspect of your health. Staying motivated is the hardest part of any plan. The single best way to stay in the zone is to have a trained and quailed buddy or coach like me who can give you a nudge or call you out if you start to go off track. I’d say this is the single biggest thing that makes the difference between reaching your goal and actually staying there. That’s where health coaching comes in. It keeps you accountable and will ensure all that good work doesn’t go to waste.

    You know you're not performing at your best and that life would be better if only you felt better. There’s no time like now to change, so click here and book your free call now!
