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.

​

I think how to eat well and manage your mental health should be taught at school so its second nature to know how to keep ourselves in optimum health. It should also be part of a person’s recovery plan, no matter what the diagnosis. We should be giving people hope, advice and education when they are ill, teaching them the importance of a healthy diet so they can empower themselves to take control of their health. Not just give people a diagnosis and send them away to deal with it on their own.

​

​Like most women, I have experienced many hormonal issues such a PMS, miscarriage, breast lumps, anxiety, weight fluctuation, lipoedema and night sweats. I draw upon my own experiences and training to create a personalised programme for my clients -  there is no one size fits all approach.  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 underlying 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.
