About Me
For over eight years, I have studied and worked in the field of eating disorders, disordered eating, obesity and body image. My work brings together psychology, behaviour change and nervous system regulation to help people move from control, chaos and self-sabotage to steadiness and self-trust.
I trained at the National Centre for Eating Disorders as a Practitioner in Eating Disorders, Obesity and Nutrition, and have continued to upskill extensively in CPD training around disordered eating, neurodivergence and body image. I am also a Positive Psychology Practitioner, weaving strengths-based science into sustainable recovery.
Alongside my clinical work, I am the author of Food Freedom, a book exploring the psychological relationship to food, body image, body confidence and self-worth.
My Approach
I am an integrative practitioner. This means I draw from multiple evidence-based approaches to meet you where you are.
My training includes:
- ICF Accredited NLP Practitioner
- Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist
- Level 4 CBT
- ILM Level 5 Coach and Mentor
- Qualified Personal Trainer
I am currently further training as a psychotherapist.
My background also includes working in high-pressure corporate sales environments, which means I understand stress, performance pressure and the reality of busy professional lives. I now work with entrepreneurs, professionals, athletes and individuals who appear high-functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed internally.
My approach blends:
• CBT and behavioural change
• NLP and subconscious pattern work
• Positive psychology
• Nervous system regulation
• Practical tools for real life
This is not about willpower. It is about understanding why the pattern exists and building something sustainable in its place.
Who I Work With
I work with:
• Individuals struggling with disordered eating, food noise or body dissatisfaction
• Clients pre or post weight loss surgery
• Those using weight loss medication
• Athletes navigating performance and body image pressure
• Entrepreneurs and business professionals balancing ambition and wellbeing
• People who feel stuck in cycles of restriction, bingeing or self-criticism
I also run retreats, membership programmes and group coaching spaces focused on long-term wellbeing.
Corporate & Professional Work
I am an Executive Partner at Strategic Wellbeing, delivering consultancy, workshops and training to businesses committed to improving employee wellbeing.
I design and deliver sessions on burnout, body image, emotional resilience and sustainable performance.
I also provide CPD-accredited training for professionals working in sport, fitness and wellbeing, particularly around eating disorders and body dysmorphia.
Speaking, Advocacy & Media
Having personally recovered from an eating disorder, I am deeply committed to raising awareness around disordered eating and body image.
I collaborate with charities, schools and organisations to provide education, training and open conversations about mental health.
I host the podcast More to Life, focused on food, body and growth, and I run international retreats and a wellbeing festival in Devon.
Please note: I do not provide treatment for individuals with a diagnosed eating disorder. In those cases, I recommend seeking specialist clinical services.
