Science-led nutrition.
Human-first care.

Nutrition is personal. Your health history, your goals, your relationship with food and your everyday life all deserve a place in the conversation.

My areas of focus are general weight loss, including nutritional support alongside weight-loss medications, hormone health — fertility, PMOS, menopause and endometriosis — and gut health, including FODMAP guidance.

I believe good nutrition should bring clarity, not confusion. My holistic approach brings evidence-informed guidance together with an understanding of your goals, preferences and everyday life.
