Pilates Dietitian
As an ADHD and weight inclusive dietitian and Pilates instructor, I understand the unique challenges of navigating food and movement to support health and wellbeing.
Pilates has transformed my core strength after multiple pregnancies and my relationship with movement and body confidence.
My journey with intuitive eating emphasised the need for flexibility and adaptation as an neurodivergent women who herself struggled with introceptive awareness difficuilties, history of disordered relationship with exercise and body image. The process of finding a happier and more relaxed relationship with food and nutrition required an understadning of my own unique differences especially surrounding executive functioning, difficuilties with emotional regulation and rigid black and white thinking. However with awarenss and compassion and removing the shame and guilt associated with my challenges my relationship with my body and nutrition is less complicated and more aligned with how I want to live my life, with less time spent overwhelmed with food choice or body size and more time spent striving to live my life and embrace myself and my differences.
I'm passionate about supporting ADHDer's and all individuals to promote understanding of diverse experiences. Too often, neurodivergent individuals specific experiences and challenges are overlooked or dismissed.
Through the lens of compassionate, validation and strength-based support, my approach is to enable and empower you to accept your differences and identify strategies that enhance your health behaviours aligned with your own goals.
My mission is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel supported.

"We can't direct the wind, but we can adjust our sails," Inspired by Alan Lightman’s words,
I believe we can reframe our experiences and find healthier ways to navigate the neurotypical world.
