Hormones are the reason why I became a nutritional therapist. I saw first hand the effect that oestrogen dependent cancer can have on a person and their family and when I read the research about diet, lifestyle and cancer it inspired me to do a degree in nutrition. It has become my mission to help women better understand their hormones and what they can do to achieve optimum health.

​

Like most women, I have experienced many hormonal issues such a PMS, miscarriage, breast lumps and night sweats. I draw upon my own experiences and training to help women rediscover their balance.  I work with my clients to develop an individual programme that fits in with their lifestyle to help them achieve their goals.

​​

I follow the principles of functional Medicine which sees the body as a whole, integrated system, focussing on causes rather than symptoms of ill-health, using lifestyle changes (diet and nutrition, exercise, sleep and relaxation) as central to recovery. It is scientifically evidence based, and works very well alongside  conventional medicine, and is a very effective tool, especially for chronic disease. 

​

​I have completed a BSc degree in Nutritional Therapy, qualifying in 2012. I am a member of the British Association of Nutritional Therapists (BANT) and am registered with the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC). I adhere to the BANT code of conduct and I am committed to continued professional development by attending lectures, seminars and keeping up to date on research. I am also a qualified meditation teacher as stress management is key for good health.
