Nutritional Therapist
Katie is a Nutritional Therapist, providing diet and wellness solutions to health concerns. Her practice focuses on the underlying causes of illness and symptoms, questioning why these issues are happening
in the body.
Katie works using a client-centered and health-centered approach (rather than a disease-centered one) to provide nourishment and nutritional support; viewing the body as an individual whole instead of as a set of separate systems and body parts. For example even though someone may have a skin issue (such as eczema), a respiratory problem (such as asthma) or an autoimmune condition (such as Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis which effects the thyroid in the throat) it could be appropriate to focus on the gut, as this is where 70% of the immune system is located. Several people may have Diabetes Type II, but depending on their individual genetics and how the disease is manifesting in the body their personal nutrition plans and strategies can be very different. Katie practices general nutrition and also specialises in digestive health.

Specialising in Digestive Health
The gut can be viewed as the mother of the body providing nourishment to all the other systems and organs. It is also the body’s most complex and sophisticated gateway between the external and internal environment.
Digestive well-being is a foundation pillar of overall health and optimising this is often the first place to start when working with a client from within a holistic framework.
