I'm Catherine
I AM REGISTERED NUTRITIONAL THERAPIST AND I SPECIALISE IN SUPPORTING WOMEN'S HEALTH USING NUTRITIONAL AND LIFESTYLE MEDICINE
I specialise in helping women take back control of their hormones to get off the monthly hormonal rollercoaster and learn how to eat well and fully nourish their bodies!
​
​You may have always had problem periods or you may have been diagnosed with a condition such as Endometriosis, PCOS or PMDD and experience emotional and physical ‘hell week’ before your period starts. Even if you have had these problems for a long time, I am confident that we can work together, and using nutritional and lifestyle medicine, I can support you with these symptoms. ​
MY MISSION
My mission is to share my nutrition knowledge to inspire and empower women to take back control of their hormones, so that they can experience renewed energy and motivation and feel positive and happy at all times of the month again!
MY STORY
I came to study nutrition after years of my own hormonal problems, having been put on the pill for many years and experiencing debilitating side effects ranging from acne to mood disturbances. I was feeling depressed, anxious and disconnected from my body. The medical advice I was given was that these side effects were not unusual, and the only advice I was given was to switch the pill or take more tables to manage the side effects I was experiencing.
​
​I didn’t want to take more medication and was convinced there must be a way to manage my symptoms naturally. I decided instead to work with a nutritional therapist and with some functional testing discovered that my gut microbiome was not optimal, that I had low iron levels, and suboptimal thyroid function. We worked together on a plan to fix these issues and as a result I felt 100% better in myself and was able to come off all medication.
QUALIFICATIONS & AFFILIATIONS
​Inspired by the results I had achieved and with a desire to help others I trained as a Nutritional Therapist and undertook a three-year diploma at the College of Naturopathic Medicine (CNM) in Bristol. I am a BANT registered Nutritional Therapist and registered with the CNHC (the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council).
