About Me
I've had psoriasis since I was a child, gut issues since I was a teen, low mood and energy throughout my young adult years. I thought this was normal or at least this was just me and I had to deal with it. I became a mother and all these things I've mentioned seemed to become bigger. I felt like I couldn't deal with any stress and my resilience was on the floor. Somehow my intuition drew me to food being the first major step to my health and wellbeing.
Once I started to feel better, I would return to my previous ways of living and would start to feel awful again and that's when I realised I needed to be in tune with 'my why' and the answer was because I didn't want to feel like I had for 20 years, I wanted to be the best version of myself and I wanted to feel well and healthy so I was present for my family and myself. From there I kept on learning and the amazing thing about nutritional sciences, is that its forever changing and we learn more and more about the power of food and lifestyle changes in how they can benefit us to live a healthier and happier life.
My why has now extended into helping and supporting you!

The way I work...
We will work together to investigate why you are experiencing your symptoms, rather than focusing on them alone. In our first session, I take a full case history from birth to present day in order to really understand your health journey, which I then use to create a tailored plan for you and your concerns. I also put an emphasis on the importance of sleep, movement and connectivity.
I use functional tests (some listed below) which are laboratory tests that help to identify imbalances, nutritional status, pathogens, insufficiencies that might be adding to your health concerns and symptoms. The functional tests can shed more light in finding the root cause, tailoring your individual plan further to support your body systems and function.
Tests: Comprehensive Stool test, Vaginal Microbiome, Gene Testing, Lipids Profile, Oral Microbiome, Adrenal & stress hormones.
