Frequently asked questions

The best place to start is a free 15 minute discovery call. It’s a chance for us to talk, for you to tell me what you’ve been experiencing, and for us to work out which next step makes the most sense for you.

Your discovery call is a short, focused conversation to help us both understand whether working together is the right fit. I’ll listen to what’s going on, explain how I work and guide you towards the most suitable option, whether that’s an initial consultation, follow-up support, testing or a package.

No. You don’t need to have everything figured out before getting in touch. If you’re unsure, book a discovery call first and I’ll help you choose the right next step.

An initial consultation is a 1.5 hour session where I take the time to understand your full health story: your symptoms, health history, nutrition, lifestyle, stress, sleep, previous testing and wider patterns. You’ll also receive personalised nutrition and lifestyle guidance, food diary feedback, a review of any current test results and recommendations for functional testing if needed.

A follow-up is a 45 minute session where we review your progress, talk through any new symptoms, interpret testing where relevant and adjust your plan. It keeps your support focused, practical and responsive to what your body is showing.

Usually, the initial consultation comes first so I have a full understanding of your health background and needs. If you’re unsure what to book, start with a free discovery call.

Yes. I offer online consultations, so you can work with me from anywhere in the UK or internationally.

Yes. I see clients in person at my clinic in Cheltenham.

The Kickstart Package includes one initial consultation and one 45 minute follow-up. It’s for you if you’d like a clear starting point, a personalised plan and support to begin making meaningful changes.

The Lifestyle Package includes one initial consultation and three 45 minute follow-ups. It’s for you if you’d like deeper ongoing support, with more structure, accountability and guidance over time.

The Dekode Protocol is my signature programme. It’s a structured, personalised pathway designed to help you understand what your body needs and move forward with clarity. It includes an initial consultation and guided follow-up support.

That depends on where you’re starting from and how much support you’d like. If you want a clear introduction to working with me, the Kickstart Package may be a good fit. If you need more ongoing support and accountability, the Lifestyle Package or Dekode Protocol may suit you better.

I look at the body as a whole, connected system rather than treating symptoms in isolation. I draw on naturopathy, biomedicine and naturopathic nutrition to help identify patterns, understand root causes and create a personalised path forward.

No. I don’t diagnose, treat or replace medical care. My approach is designed to support your wellbeing and help you better understand your body. Please continue to work with your GP or medical provider for diagnosis, medication, acute symptoms or emergency care.

Yes. My work is designed to complement your existing care, not replace it. I always encourage clients to keep a relationship with their GP or primary care provider, especially for urgent, acute or medical concerns.

Root cause means looking beyond the symptom itself and asking what may be driving it. This might include nutrition, digestion, stress, sleep, hormonal patterns, lifestyle, environment or wider imbalances in the body.

I don’t separate the body into isolated systems. Instead, I look at the full picture and work to understand how different systems may be influencing one another.

Yes. After your initial consultation, I create personalised nutrition and lifestyle guidance based on your symptoms, goals, history and daily life.

Yes. My aim is to create a plan that feels practical and achievable, not overwhelming. It’s about making changes that fit into your real life and support long-term wellbeing.

Not necessarily. My approach is rooted in food as medicine, but it isn’t about extreme restriction. Your plan will be tailored to your body, your goals and what’s realistic for you.

Food diary analysis helps me understand your eating patterns, symptoms, energy, digestion and daily habits. It can reveal useful links between what you eat, how you feel and what your body may need.

Some packages include meal logging through an app, so I can review patterns, give feedback and support your progress between sessions.
