Your brain used to be your strongest asset.
Now you're not sure you can trust it.
1:1 personalised nutrition for perimenopausal women. Lift your mood, clear your brain fog, and get your brain working at full speed again.
You open a cupboard but forget what you’re looking for.
You lose your words mid-sentence, yet again. Inside you’re cringing wondering if they think you’re stupid.
You're snapping at people you love over things that didn’t bother you before. This constant low-level rage is exhausting.
You’re now anxious about little things and get stressed about issues that were completely manageable. You don’t recognise this shrinking version of yourself.
You joke about early onset dementia, but deep down you’re worrying, “If my brain’s like this now, how much worse will it be when I’m older?”
You’ve read a bit about perimenopause. You read that poor memory, brain fog, and low mood can be part of this. You’ve been told “it’s just your age”, like you’re supposed to suck it up and get on with it, But that doesn’t feel enough for you.
You’re not the type to just passively hope things get better. I know this about you because you’re here, in the perfect place to answer the wake up call your brain is giving you right now.
You've probably already made some changes. You’ve tried quitting alcohol, the supplements your friend swears by, the nutrition advice that comes up on your Instagram feed. But you
"I was experiencing extreme lethargy, sleepless nights, memory loss, low immunity, weight gain, mood swings, digestion problems and generally feeling that there was nothing and no-one out there to steer me in the right direction."

don’t really notice much difference, and none of it sticks.
You know the skipped meals, the wine to unwind, and the sleep you keep sacrificing, aren’t helping. But with so much information out there, you don't know where to start. So you don't.
But without really understanding what’s really driving your symptoms, you can’t find a clear path to address the right things. Without a guide who’s been where you are now, it’s so easy to give up.
"The most helpful parts were the holistic approach, the clear explanations of how my symptoms were linked to my lifestyle and eating habits."

What Does Working With Me Look Like?
It starts with testing.
I do this before we even meet so we have a clear picture of what’s really happening in your body from the very start. I use functional tests with specific markers to take the guess work out of what’s driving your mood, your brain fog or exhaustion.
Depending on your symptoms, you'll choose one of these packages:
Brain & Body*
A comprehensive blood test covering blood sugar, inflammation, thyroid function, vitamin and mineral status.
Gut-Brain*
Includes a detailed stool analysis to understand what's happening in your gut, and how this may be affecting your brain.
Brain 360
Everything in the Brain & Body and Gut-Brain package for a complete picture of the key drivers of your cognitive health.
* This package also includes an Omega-3 Index test and a homocysteine test as these are both often overlooked drivers of cognitive decline, but simple to address.
Then we meet
By the time we meet online, I've already read your results, your case history and your food diary. We're ready to hit the ground running with a plan that is specific to your unique needs.
Your initial consultation is 90 minutes, so we have time to go through everything - the test results, your sleep, your stress levels, what you're eating and when. Also, the strategy so you finally have that clear path of action.
You get your plan
Your personalised protocol built specifically around your needs and your life. These are realistic, simple, step-by-step instructions for you to follow for the following month, with tools to support you.
We make it stick
You'll work with me for either three or six months, whichever feels right for the symptoms you have. Both options include monthly 60 minute follow-up consultations to review your progress and adjust your plan for real life.
And I’ll check in between sessions to make sure you’re on track, because having a guide and accountability turns knowing what to do into actually doing it.
