About Me

I am an accredited clinical nutritionist and natural health practitioner specialising in women’s fatigue, stress, and hormonal issues. I also enjoy supporting women through pregnancy and the post-natal stage. Furthermore, I have an extensive background in child, teen and young adult health. Being a mother to a 13- and 15-year-old also helps me relate to young people who I commonly see for immune, sleep, stress, and neurodevelopmental issues.

My personalised, holistic approach as a practitioner is based on evidenced-based research, clinical experience, and traditional knowledge of natural health practices. I incorporate nutritional medicine, tonics, remedies, and fad-free dietary and lifestyle guidance into health plans to support people address challenges and help them thrive.

Sometimes I suggest general pathology tests through the family doctor or order functional tests through private labs if I believe they will contribute to my understanding of a case. This depends on each person, their goals, and their budget.

I am conscious not to overwhelm my clients with complicated health plans and multitudes of supplements. Not only is this costly but it is often unnecessary. Every person’s health journey is unique however my focus is on simplicity and the potential of even the smallest steps leading to dramatic results.

I have worked and studied in the natural health field for over 20 years and completed three formal qualifications at tertiary level. I also have a background in high need education, child development, family support, and parent education/mentoring.

What to expect

A holistic, non-invasive approach.

At the first appointment, I take an in-depth case to gain a comprehensive understanding of you (or your child), your health concerns and goals. It is like putting together pieces of a puzzle to form a full picture. I gather information about health and medical history as well as family health history, presenting complaint/s, general health, sleep, energy, and diet.

I may recommend general pathology tests through the family doctor or order functional tests through private labs if I believe they will contribute to my understanding of a case. This depends on each person, their goals, and their budget.

I will provide you with several preliminary goals to take away and work on while I devise a full health plan. If we are waiting on test results, this plan may be given to you at the follow up appointment.

Testimonials

"Rebecca’s advice and support has been invaluable over the past months. On the basis of my answers to her detailed questions, to which she listens attentively, she has given me ongoing recommendations about my diet and supplements. This has led to drastic improvements in my chronic health problem. I am really grateful for her careful, healing support"

"I started working with Rebecca after our son was having issues at primary school (and home), with being able to focus on work in class, follow instructions and have the confidence to participate socially with his peers. As Rebecca started working with him, I had multiple people say to me what a different child he was. My husband who was very sceptical about complementary medicine is, like me, incredibly pleased with the positive changes that have come about since we sought help. Our son no longer needs extra academic support. He can now work independently to complete assignments in and out of school. He is now also happy to join in with his classmates during group work and on the playground. He is still our quirky boy however we no longer have red flags indicating he might have serious attention and learning difficulties. I cannot thank Rebecca enough. At each consultation, we discuss all areas of improvement and those that still need attention. She has consistently been able to improve on each and every concern. For example, he used to constantly chew on his clothes and this was addressed so he no longer does. I have highly recommended Rebecca to my friends and because of my experiences, I would always consider nutritional therapies and homeopathy as a solution especially for children."

"I’ve seen Rebecca since she practised in London. Since she left in 2010, my contact has continued. If something’s going on for me, we have more frequent consultations such as when I had complications from a leg fracture, when I developed lung problems and when I quit smoking. From the start, her holistic treatment approach has been eclectic. I admit I am not always great at incorporating the nutrition but overall, I’ve responded really well to this approach and I really couldn’t imagine life without her holistic support. But it is more than what she prescribes. It’s her consideration and the way she helps me help myself without taking over."

KB, London

"Rebecca is always warm and friendly, which makes us feel at ease, and she is dedicated to following up on the course of action. We are always well supported in illness. She has also educated us extensively about holistic preventative care for our family. I’ve always been grateful for the ideas she’s given me to get my children to take various things she prescribes and in the healthy forms that they love taking!"

MD, London

""Having had no previous consultations, Rebecca was an amazing find. She offered a range of solutions I hadn't considered beforehand, as she is approachable and determined to help, exploring every problem in detail and responding accordingly. She is a relatable, reliable and professional nutritionist who has a vast knowledge on not only dietary, but also homeopathic supplements. Her personal health plans have helped me greatly in reaching goals and supporting overall health, both mentally and physically, and in guiding me in my journey.". "
