Biography

I am a BANT & CNHC registered Nutritional Therapist coaching people to improve their physical and mental health. I have been in private practice since 1999 and work with clients in clinic or online, depending on their location and commitments. In a typical nutritional therapy session, we discuss your goals, medical and family history, dietary habits, digestive function and lifestyle. I develop a nutrition and lifestyle plan suitable for your circumstances that includes dietary adjustments, lifestyle changes and food supplement recommendations. I am also trained to use non-invasive Functional Tests to help find any underlying imbalances and guide you in your personal health and wellbeing.  Improving digestive function and efficiency is key when devising an individualised nutritional programme. A famous French food critic from the 18th century, Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin, was well aware of this when he wrote `Digestion, of all the bodily functions, is the one which exercises the greatest influence on the mental state of an individual.’ Science is beginning to prove him right.
