Hello, my name is Cate, and I work as a Nutritionist and Menopause Specialist Coach located in Old Bar, NSW. My educational background includes a Bachelor of Health Science in Food & Nutrition, and I rely on a science-based approach for crafting my guidance plans and nutrition assessments. I specialise in addressing issues related to peri-menopause, menopause, and gut health. My professional background encompasses various roles, including nutrition consultation, health and wellness writing, recipe development, nutrition analysis, and menu planning. These experiences have offered me the opportunity to collaborate with individual clients and community groups, fostering inspiration and positive change. My personal journey with early-onset menopause, attributed to a history of breast cancer, led me to recognise a significant gap in support available for women grappling with symptoms during peri-menopause and menopause. This realisation ignited my passion for assisting women in understanding the underlying causes of their symptoms and making gradual lifestyle adjustments, with a specific emphasis on nutrition, enhancing sleep quality, and stress management. My primary focus centres on active listening to my patients and empowering them with knowledge about their health. I aim to enable individuals to achieve optimal well-being, while also taking proactive steps to help prevent future health issues and chronic diseases.
