Health is a relationship between you and your body
I’m Denise, a Nutritional Therapist and Life Coach. I work with people who have issues with food; emotional and physical.
I help you move from food fear to food freedom. I support you to remove judgement and confusion from your diet.
I facilitate your growth and discovery of what foods ultimately make YOU FEEL HAPPY AND CONTENT in your body.
You will improve your energy, your sleep, your diet but ALSO your motivation to continue your journey of self-discovery.
You learn about your triggers, and reframe how you can work with these to your advantage.
You build a toolkit that will see you EATING AND LIVING AS BEST YOU CAN LONG AFTER OUR PARTNERSHIP has ended.
After years of suffering with IBS, I recognised that I had developed an unhealthy relationship with food. I followed harsh restriction plans that would always end in a cycle of guilt and inner turmoil, not to mention further destruction to my physical health.
Does this sound familiar to you, you’re trying so hard to stick to something and you are nowhere near your desired result?
What if I told you there is a much nicer way to tackle how you are feeling, whether its IBS, weight issues, fatigue to others.
If we begin to think about HOW we eat as much as WHAT we eat we find a much easier way of being with our food that ultimately ends with us feeling much more full of energy, enthusiasm and happier.
When you focus on including more food into your diet over restricting, you connect with an inner wisedom that knows exactly what your body needs.
Give yourself permission to invest in yourself.

What restriction leads to
Lack of nutrient intake
Our body needs fuel everyday, when we restrict ourselves that basic need we begin to experience symptoms like high/lows of energy, sleep disruption, digestive struggles, dry skin, and many more.
Low mood
Did you know that your GUT is known as the second brain? When we don’t look after out gut, them we will experience things like constant tiredness, low motivation, constant rumination and others.
Poor body image
We are human beings, our bodies physical and emotional. When you add colour to all the elements your life you can achieve your Health and Wellbeing goals.

Emotions driving what you eat?
Emotional Eating is a powerful way to find relief, it’s why we all do it at some point or other. But if this cycle is bugging you at the moment and you just need a couple of ideas to help then look at HOW you are eating.
What does Metabolism actually mean?
Major restriction or dieting can infact slow down your metabolism. The short term gain is that you lose the weight and feel better, yay! However I have some news for you, many current studies are now showing that those who lose that weight rapidly ultimately end up regaining the weight after a period of time. Why is this? Well if you’ve been at a particular weight for a period of time, the body gets happy there. Our body and brain are lazy, they like being comfortable. And for reasons not fully understood yet, our body does everything it can to get back to this metallic set point, the one where it’s comfortable(6).
Food Rules, Food Guilt and DIETS
In essence what I am saying is that if you want to have create meaningly change with your dietary choices everyday then you will need to work hard on discovering and aligning your values to your actions. Sounds like an easy thing to do but this can be challenging as it’s not how we are used to thinking. And our lazy but great brain prefers doing things the easy way.
“I would highly recommend working with Denise. Denise created a safe space that allowed me explore and ultimately reframe my situation & move forward positively. Leaving our sessions I felt armed with new skills and knowledge that set me up for success. She is a skilled coach and a very warm and calming presence and I look forward to working with her again in the future. ”
“I worked with Denise for weight loss, digestive troubles and thyroid troubles. I was always tired and hungry. When we finished I had more energy and lost some weight. I always avoided carbs. Denise introduced carbs into my diet which I was craving and explained how I really need carbs in my diet because I was exercising 5 days a week. I think she provides a great service, she takes time to listen to her clients needs. ”
“I engaged with Denise to get a better relationship with food and understand diet better. I was feeling hungry a lot and very lethargic in the afternoon and I also had skin issues. When I finished with Denise I had a greater understanding of how food choice can affect you, especially the importance of including protein in meals and snacks and finding alternatives to empty carbs. Denise knows what questions to ask and she really listens to what you are saying. She picks up on little things that you don’t realise are making a difference. She’s the type of person that makes you very comfortable to talk, there is no judgement. ”
