Amy-Ann is a 2014 graduate with a Bachelor of Health Science from the prestigious university, Southern School of Natural Therapies. Amy-Ann has a passion for fostering mental well-being and self compassion within her patients. She is a gentle practitioner who loves to use food as medicine and kitchen cupboard remedies to support the work of herbal mixes and supplements. She has a personal history of illness and therefore understands the difficulties of being unwell and trying to get better, even if that's giving you a gentle nudge (nothing is going to change if you don't take your herbs!)

I’m an Advanced Practising Dietitian and Registered Nurse with over 14 years of experience in healthcare. My background spans both clinical and private practice settings, and I bring a compassionate, evidence-based approach to personalised nutrition care. I’m deeply passionate about the powerful role nutrition plays in our overall health and wellbeing — not just in preventing and managing chronic conditions, but also in supporting women through all stages of life. I love helping women understand and work with their bodies, whether they’re navigating hormonal shifts, planning a family, or recovering postnatally. I also believe strongly in finding balance and enjoyment with food, without restriction or guilt. My areas of special interest include women’s health, fertility, family planning, preconception, pregnancy, and postpartum care. I also support clients with chronic conditions such as insulin resistance, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure. I believe in meeting you where you are, and working together to create realistic, meaningful nutrition strategies that support your health and lifestyle.

I believe that everyone has the ability to become their best self and embrace the potential for true well-being. When you are aligned, inside and out, you can fully pursue and achieve your dreams. A thriving individual creates a ripple effect, fostering well-being in our communities and the world. After two decades of living and working in some of the world’s most sought-after destinations—Maldives, Bali, Fiji, and Malaysia—I have returned home to Aotearoa to pursue my passion for helping Kiwis unlock their full health potential. With a background in designing wellness and sustainability programs for luxury resorts, I now bring that expertise to individuals through personalised NLP Coaching Services—available both online and in person. As a certified NLP Master Practitioner and Health and Nutrition Coach as well as student of Clinical Nutrition, I integrate mindset transformation,and lifestyle strategies to empower you in breaking through barriers, accessing your inner potential, and achieving optimal well-being.
