How much does it cost?
There is a cost of £40 for the first appointment and then £25 for any follow ups.
How long does it take?
The consultation lasts about an hour and a half, as I take a detailed case study to build up a comprehensive information about the individual.
What if I can't get to you?
I hold telephone consultations for those who live too far away.
What if my diet is very poor?
Don't worry if your diet is poor, I am not there to judge, just to help. It is important to be honest.
What is the difference between a dietician and nutritionist?
A dietician usually works for a GP or hospital and will recommend diets for specific conditions e.g. diabetes. A nutritionist strictly speaking is someone who is involved with the science of food technology. I am a nutritional adviser / therapist and I work not by treating the symptom, but looking at the cause of the symptom including stress, lifestyle and past illnesses or medication.
How much training have you had and what are your qualifications?
I trained for 3 years and have 3 diplomas. I am also a member of BANT, the British Association of Nutritional Therapists. I complete a set number of hours of continuing professional development each year as well as attending seminars.
Will I have to give up my favourite foods?
We will work together to see if any foods need to be reduced or removed, depending on the circumstances. Its up to you.
Do you deal with children?
I deal with toddlers, primary children and teenagers, and specialise in fussy eaters.
I know a lot about healthy eating, how can you make a difference?
It is excellent if you already know a lot about healthy eating. However at times the information from the media can be confusing. I try not to get caught up in trends.
My husband should really see you, what should I do?
I welcome any recommendations, and can allay any fears with a quick call. However the person concerned must really want to see me and therefore it is often best if they make the appointment themselves.
