Weight Loss & GLP-1 Support

Functional nutrition to support sustainable weight loss, cravings, energy and hormone balance, including GLP-1 nutritional support and weaning, so you maintain results long-term with confidence.

Fertility & Pre-conception

Conception starts before pregnancy. I help women optimise hormones, nutrition, and overall health with personalised strategies to support fertility and give their baby the best start in life.

Maternal & Fetal Nutrition

Nutrition in pregnancy supports your baby’s brain development, immune function, and long-term health. I help optimise key nutrients, support healthy development, and reduce risks like gestational diabetes and pre-eclampsia.

Children’s Nutrition, Immunity & Brain Health

Functional nutrition support for busy parents dealing with frequent colds, eczema, allergies, asthma, fussy eating, digestive issues, ADHD symptoms and food intolerances, with a clear plan that fits real family life.

Perimenopause & Menopause Nutrition

Hormonal changes in perimenopause and menopause can impact energy, mood, metabolism, and muscle. I provide personalised nutrition, informed by hormonal testing, to manage symptoms, optimise health and overall wellbeing during this stage of life.

Healthy Ageing & Support for Ageing Parents

Optimise health and resilience in later life. I provide functional nutrition strategies to support healthy ageing, brain function, strength, recovery, and guidance for families caring for ageing parents.

Frequent Ask & Question

Your first session is a comprehensive 60–75 minute consultation where we explore your full health history, symptoms, medical background, lifestyle, stress, sleep, digestion, hormones and current nutrition.

This is not a surface-level diet review. It’s a clinical deep dive designed to understand why you are experiencing your symptoms.

You will leave with clarity and a structured outline of the key areas we need to address moving forward.

Your personalised plan, including dietary guidance, supplementation, lifestyle recommendations and any functional testing interpretation, is delivered during your follow-up session.

This ensures your plan is thoughtful, tailored and clinically informed.

Not always.

Many clients see meaningful improvements through dietary and lifestyle changes alone. However, where appropriate, I may recommend functional testing to explore hormones, gut health, nutrient status or metabolic markers in greater depth.

Testing is always discussed and agreed together, never imposed.

Yes.

Many women are told their results are “normal” yet still feel exhausted, symptomatic or dismissed. I review blood work through a functional lens,  looking at optimal ranges, patterns and root causes, not just disease markers.

If you have recent results, you are welcome to send them ahead of your consultation.

I support women, teenagers and children across all life stages, including:

  • Hormonal imbalance
  • PMS and cycle irregularities
  • Fertility and preconception (for both partners)
  • Pregnancy nutrition
  • Postpartum recovery
  • Perimenopause and menopause
  • Metabolic health and sustainable weight loss
  • Digestive concerns
  • Family and children’s nutrition

Fertility, in particular, is always a couple’s journey, and I support both partners where appropriate.

My philosophy is that health is vitality, not simply the absence of disease.

Both.

I offer online consultations across the UK, as well as in-person sessions in the Cotswolds (Chipping Norton and Burford area).

Not necessarily.

Food and lifestyle foundations come first. Supplements are used strategically when deficiencies or imbalances are identified.

I recommend professional-grade, bioactive supplements from brands I trust and work with. Navigating supplements alone can be confusing, synthetic versus active forms, appropriate dosages, and quality control; these details matter.

This depends on your starting point and goals.

Some clients notice improvements in energy and digestion within weeks. Hormonal and metabolic changes may take longer.

My role is to guide you with a structured, realistic plan, not quick fixes.

Yes.

I am a registered member of the British Association for Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine (BANT) and accredited by the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC).

This means:

  • I adhere to strict professional and ethical standards
  • I follow a regulated code of conduct
  • I complete ongoing yearly training to remain up to date with current research

This level of regulation distinguishes a registered Nutritional Therapist from an unregulated “health coach”. Coaches can be valuable, but they are not governed by a professional body in the same way.

Your safety, professionalism and evidence-informed practice matter deeply to me.

Yes.

I offer a complimentary 15-minute discovery call, a friendly chat over a cuppa, to see whether we are the right fit before booking.

You may benefit from working with me if:

  • You feel overwhelmed by conflicting advice online
  • You want more than fragmented social media tips
  • You are looking for structured, evidence-informed guidance
  • You value clarity and clinical reasoning
  • You are ready for sustainable, personalised change

Social media offers snapshots. Your health deserves a full picture.

If you are unsure, book a discovery call, we can talk it through.
