With over 15 years’ experience in private practice, hospital and university settings plus several degrees in nutrition and psychology, I have developed a unique lifestyle coaching approach to help my clients feel and look their best.
People who work with me usually feel energized, resourceful, positive and more in control of their lifestyles. They gain valuable insight to transform their attitude and approach towards their weight and wellbeing challenges. This allows them to break free from unhelpful thought, emotional and behavioural patterns (e.g. restricting-overeating cycles) and to ultimately create and live a life they fully love.
I have presented my work at several conferences on nutrition, health coaching and lifestyle medicine in the UK and Latin America and have been lecturing at the graduate and postgraduate levels since 2012.
My qualifications, trajectory and extensive experience have allowed me to gain registration/accreditation with the pertinent professional bodies in the UK.
I am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council, the regulating body for dietitians in the UK (see my HCPC details here) and am a full member of the British Dietetic Association.
I am also accredited as a senior practitioner coach by the European Mentoring and Coaching Council, the largest organisation of professionally trained coaches in Europe and the UK (see my EMCC details here) and hold graduate membership with the British Psychological Society.
I am registered as a personal trainer practitioner with the Chartered Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity, the professional body for the UK’s physical activity sector (see my CIMSPA details here).
