I am a BACP registered psychotherapist and Certified Intuitive Eating Counsellor. I specialise in anti-diet, HAES (Health at any Size) psychotherapy and work with clients to heal their disordered eating, body image issues, identity and self-esteem issues. I previously practiced in London and now in South Yorkshire.

Intuitive Eating Psychotherapy isn't just about regaining trust in food and movement it's about regaining trust in yourself. We turn to dieting for various reasons because our culture makes it seem so normal and even responsible to do so. However 95% of diets fail. We are led to believe that we have failed the diet but the truth is the diet failed us. Dieting and weight cycling has a profound effect on our bodies and brains and negatively impacts our emotions too. 

When you challenge and disregard negative and controlling beliefs about how your diet, body and life "should" be, you will experience mental, emotional and physical freedom. 

I am skilled in working with clients who can't face another diet but who also aren't at peace with food and with their bodies. They feel stuck, have reached an impasse and are struggling to know how to go forward. Clients enter sessions feeling at war with what to eat and also how they feel and look. As an anti-diet intuitive eating psychotherapist I will guide you through the principles of intuitive eating, challenging all of the toxic beliefs about your body and food that will be blocking you from being able to live a life of peace, joy and excitement.

Working together we will uncover and challenge all the beliefs you have around food and your body. You will re-connect with that easy and peaceful relationship to food that you were born with and which suits your body. Clients have found that this work has an overwhelmingly positive effect on other if not all aspects of their lives. Self-confidence, work and relationships are transformed by the regained sense of calm, peace, excitement and re-invigoration that intuitive eating will give you. Intuitive Eating is open to everyone - people of all sizes, backgrounds and difficulties with food, diets, body image and self-esteem. You'll no longer feel preoccupied by food or body image in a way that limits your happiness or your life. You will discover the freedom to pursue the things that nourish you not just physically, but also mentally and emotionally. Eating will become a joyful, satisfying and easy activity and you will feel able to move your body in a way that brings you pleasure, not a sense of foreboding and pain.
