My personal history of overcoming an alcohol addiction, a nicotine addiction and binge-eating has led me to have a special interest in working with people who struggle with anxiety, low mood, insomnia, and / or addictions to alcohol or other damaging substances or behaviours. These are symptoms that often become intensified during the menopause transition.

I have been offering 1:1 consultations, courses, workshops and retreats on gut health, mental health, addiction recovery, and the menopause transition since 2019. As a naturopathic nutritionist, transformational coach and Kundalini yoga teacher I have helped 1000s of people - mainly midlife and older women - shift damaging patterns of behaviour. I’ve helped them implement positive changes to their diet and lifestyle so they can feel better.

And why ‘unaddicted’? Because these days, mostly, I feel unaddicted. I say mostly because when I’m under stress and forget to look after myself well, some behavioural addictions can sneak in. I have learned to treat myself with compassion, and be grateful that I am free of substance addictions, but I am a work in progress.

Whether you are struggling with mood and energy levels; or the guilt and shame of unwanted behaviours; or a desire to release an old habit that keeps you locked in, I offer understanding, insight and practical know-how.

All my offerings - workshops, yoga classes and retreats - provide a space to have meaningful discussions with humour, kindness and absolutely no judgement. I offer spaces where you can connect with others and find peace within yourself.

I don't have all the answers, but my lived experience of addiction recovery and my professional expertise can help you lay the groundwork.
