My primary focus is 1-1 personalised health coaching sessions with you, in which you’ll explore a range of solutions designed to meet your needs—whether you're just getting started on your health journey or you’re needing follow-on support to maintain your success. Everything is tailored to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

Getting started is simple. Reach out through my email or the contact form, or schedule a complimentary Connect Call here on my website. I’ll walk you through the next steps and answer any questions along the way.

What makes my approach different is that there are no pre-determined plans or rigid rules - you set the agenda, and we work with what feels most important in your real life. I take a holistic, evidence-informed view of cravings, seeing them not as a personal failure, but as patterns shaped by our biology, stress, and environment. Having successfully overcome my own ‘sweet tooth’, I support you with empathy and zero shame so you can create meaningful, sustainable change at your own pace.

You can reach me anytime via my contact page or email. I aim to respond quickly, usually within one business day. I look forward to hearing from you.

Health coaching isn’t prescriptive or rule-based - you stay in control. I support you to make informed, realistic choices that fit your lifestyle, values, and goals. You drive the bus; I just help you get to your destination, choosing the path that’s right for you. 

Food often becomes a coping tool when life feels overwhelming. My scope of practice is to support people with mild to moderate mental wellness challenges - if this is you, we can gently explore other ways to help you feel steadier and supported without taking comfort away before you’re ready. If you feel you need a higher level of more targeted support for your current mental wellness, we can have a chat about whether you may like to consider seeing a qualified mental health professional, either instead of, or alongside health coaching. 

You don’t have to. The focus is on awareness, patterns, and feeling better — not numbers, rules, or restrictions.

You’re not alone…. and there’s no judgement here. This is a safe, supportive space to share as much or little as you feel comfortable with, and to be honest and curious about your challenge, not to feel criticised or ‘fixed’.

Many approaches focus on food ‘rules’, whereas I help you unpack why you eat the way you do and what your body actually needs, as well as helping you identify behaviours around food that you’d like to change. That’s where real, lasting change happens.

I’m a certified Master Health Coach trained through PreKure, a leading provider of evidence-based health and lifestyle medicine education, both in New Zealand and overseas. I work strictly within a clear Scope of Practice, focusing on lifestyle and behaviour change rather than diagnosis or treatment. I’m also a current, professional member of Health Coaches Australia and New Zealand Association (HCANZA), which requires annual membership, adherence to ethical standards, and ongoing professional learning and development, so you can feel confident you’re working with a qualified, ethical, and evidence-informed health coach.

Your privacy is paramount to me!

I collect only what’s necessary to support our work together, such as your name, contact details, and a brief record of our sessions. I don’t keep unnecessary personal or medical information, and I don’t record sessions without your prior written consent.

Your information is stored securely using password-protected systems, and access is limited to only me. Draft notes that aren’t needed are deleted.

Any relevant personal or health information you choose to share is kept confidential and stored securely in accordance with the Health Information Privacy Code 2020 and the Privacy Act 2020.

There is one exception: if I have reasonable grounds to believe there is a serious threat to your life, health, or safety, or to the safety of another person, I may share relevant information with an appropriate agency (such as emergency services) to prevent or lessen that threat, as permitted under Rule 11 of the Health Information Privacy Code 2020. Where safe and practical to do so, I will always speak with you first before taking this step.

Under New Zealand’s Privacy Act 2020, you also have the right to request access to your information at any time. If you ever have questions about how your information is managed, I’m always happy to talk.
