I’m a qualified nutritionist specialising in gut health and autoimmune disease. I support clients with everything from digestive symptoms like bloating and IBS to improving overall gut health, reducing chronic inflammation, and managing autoimmune symptoms. My approach looks at the many areas of wellbeing that influence gut health, chronic disease, and overall vitality, from nutrition and lifestyle to nervous system regulation and mindset. I also integrate functional testing where appropriate to create personalised, evidence-based programs tailored to each individual. Having lived with coeliac disease and autoimmune arthritis (JIA) since a young age, I understand firsthand the challenges that come with chronic illness and gut health struggles. Over the years, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the body’s ability to heal when supported holistically. After many years of relying on medication to manage my autoimmune arthritis, I’m now in remission, managing my health through nutrition, lifestyle, and a balanced approach to wellness.
