Areas of work

I empower women to develop sustainable habits and improve their overall health, offering support around these and other areas. Contact me to explore how I can support you.

Hashimoto's thyroiditis

Living with Hashimoto’s myself, I understand the journey. While I’m not a replacement for your doctor, I can guide and support you along the way.

Weight Management

Weight struggles often connect to other health factors beyond diet, making the process more complex. I help you focus on long-term, sustainable changes that support metabolic balance and gut health.

Energy, Stress, Sleep

As a mind-body practitioner in training, I’ve learned how stress, sleep, circadian rhythms, and overall lifestyle choices impact our health. Together, we work towards better balance and energy.

Anti-inflammatory diet & lifestyle

A core pillar of overall health which is often at the root of many health conditions, including autoimmune disorders. I support you in making practical, sustainable changes to incorporate changes into daily life.

Outside my Scope

My role does not involve using in-depth nutrition or physiology knowledge to manage chronic or complex health conditions—that expertise belongs to qualified Nutritional Therapists and other health professionals.

 

Food is medicine, and applying it effectively requires a deep understanding of nutritional science. Always choose a qualified professional, verify their credentials, and be cautious—many short courses grant the title “nutritionist” without the necessary expertise for safe, effective guidance.

​

Excluded from the scope:

  • Assessing symptoms

  • Diagnosing conditions

  • Ordering functional testing

  • Interpreting lab results

  • Giving specific dietary advice

  • Suggesting permanent removal of food group

  • Prescribing treatments or therapeutic interventions

How can I help with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

Hashimoto's Thyroiditis is an autoimmune condition that requires management by a Nutritional Therapist (NT) or Doctor. This may involve thyroid medication, blood tests, and specific supplements.

Dietary changes, lifestyle adjustments, and mind-body techniques are key to managing the condition. Once you have a plan from your doctor or NT, the real challenge is implementing it.

This is where my coaching can help. As someone managing Hashimoto's myself, I understand what you're going through and can guide you on the path to better health.
