I was trained at the renowned Institute for Optimum Nutrition (ION) in London and as a full member of the British Association for Nutritional Therapy (BANT) I am bound by its strict ethical code of conduct. I am also registered with the Nutritional Therapy Council.

Before I discovered nutritional therapy I was unwell much of the time. In fact I had been ill since childhood with bronchitis, digestive problems, allergies and hormonal problems which continued into adulthood. Memories of my childhood in Singapore are riddled with frequent visits to the family doctor and the terror of having one injection after another for one illness after another. I pretty much grew up popping painkillers and all kinds of medications.

As a young adult I did not really appreciate fresh, whole foods and the sum of my cooking skills was a chicken curry which I made once a year, if at all.

Fortunately a move to London forced me to teach myself to cook and an interest in science and health led me to discover nutritional therapy. From do-it-myself trial and error and finally enrolling at ION, I discovered the link between my nutritional status and the underlying causes of my various health issues.

Nutritional therapy changed my life so much that in August 2005 I gave up my well-paid job as a financial journalist to become a full-time nutritional therapist. My belief and passion in it continue to grow in leaps and bounds everyday.

I help people with all kinds of health issues and I am also part of a team of nutritional therapists www.brainnutrition.co.uk who specialises in moods, brain and mental health disorders.
Other areas in which I have special interest in are thyroid and adrenal issues, digestive health, male and female fertility, hormonal issues and chronic fatigue.

I work closely with The Fertility Support Company, which provides a comprehensive healthcare service by integrating Western medical diagnostics with traditional Chinese medicine and natural therapies to prepare men and women for parenthood, including preparation for IVF or other assisted reproductive techniques.

I am also a tutor at the Institute for Optimum Nutrition.

I am constantly training and learning from world renowned experts in nutrition and natural medicine.

Whatever your health needs are, my aim is to be practical, cost-effective and most importantly to impart to you the tools and knowledge to take care of your own health. I offer support between consultations via email, phone contact and communication with your GP and other health practitioners if necessary.

I work with other therapists including acupuncturists, psychotherapists, counsellors, hypnotherapists, other emotional therapists, medical herbalists and osteopaths. Where relevant I may refer you to other therapists or if I am not able to help you, I will refer you to someone else who is better able to do so.
