I help you have better poos and better moods! Links between gut health and the health of the rest of the body, including brain health, mood and immune health, are regular findings in scientific literature. Many chronic conditions are associated with poor gut health. Therefore, supporting optimal gut health and addressing the root causes of symptoms can make a huge difference, and this is what I see in my clinic all the time with clients. And even when things have not yet gone wrong, looking after your beneficial gut bacteria and the whole gut ecology is a great way of lowering your risk of many chronic symptoms and conditions and feeling fabulous through different life stages.

About
"When 'I' is replaced with 'we', illness becomes wellness. Let me help you to understand your unique biology, dig deep to help you feel better and take off your shoulders the burden of trying to do it all on your own!
I'm a MSc degree qualified, BANT registered nutrition and lifestyle medicine practitioner, a mindset coach (NLP), and a creative healthy foodie, with a specialist knowledge and interest in digestive health, the gut-brain / food-mood connection, skin issues and menopause transition.
My MetaWell (www.metawell.co.uk) nutrition clinic is based in Bracknell and online, and I help women and men move from surviving to thriving, by digging deep into their health concerns, in order to understand and address the root causes of their symptoms.
I work with people with long-term conditions and symptoms, particularly gut and digestive symptoms, low mood and anxiety, and skin, thyroid and inflammatory conditions, as well as women wanting a healthy transition through the menopause.
On top of my 1:1 clinic work with clients, I also run corporate wellness events, such as nutrition talks or pop-up clinics with businesses, charities and other organisations. I have been a course facilitator for the Food and Mood course at Stepping Stones Recovery College Bracknell since the college was established in 2021, and I have run Nutrition for Long Covid sessions with patients of an NHS long covid clinic.
I'm passionate about educating and inspiring individuals and the community to learn about the effects of processed foods, the benefits of home-cooking and the link between your diet and health, and the connection between the gut and the brain. My goal is to empower YOU to take charge of YOUR own health rather than purely relying on medications for symptom relief.
