I understand that navigating heart disease, diabetes, and digestive health challenges can feel overwhelming. Many of my clients experience anxiety and confusion as they face new health realities.

My Professional Journey
I started my career as a nurse after completing my BSc Hons and trained at Harefield Hospital before moving to Leeds General Infirmary, where I worked as a Clinical Nurse Specialist in the Cardiothoracic Unit.
​
As my career evolved, I became increasingly passionate about preventative care. I transitioned into General Practice as a nurse prescriber, advising patients on heart health, diabetes management, and lifestyle changes. Seeing the need for more personalised interventions, I pursued further training and completed a Graduate Diploma in Integrative Functional Nutrition.
​
Today, as a qualified Health Coach and Nutrigenomics Practitioner, I specialise in providing expert heart health nutritionists' support to individuals, alongside natural reflux management, personalised heart, diabetes, and digestive health strategies, and preventative care for diabetes.​​
Qualifications & Affiliations
What is Nutritional Therapy?
Nutritional therapy applies the science of nutrition to promote health and well-being. Rather than just addressing symptoms, it looks at the root cause of health concerns. By identifying and addressing imbalances, I can help you create a targeted nutrition and lifestyle plan to improve energy, manage symptoms, and support long-term health.
As one of the experienced nutritional therapist specialists, I recognise that no two individuals are the same. Genetics, lifestyle, and health history all play a role in shaping your unique physiology. That’s why I provide personalised heart, diabetes, and digestive health strategies that align with your specific needs and goals.
Nutritional therapy is not a replacement for medical advice but rather a complementary approach that works alongside healthcare professionals to optimise your well-being.
