With or without GLP-1 medication, weight management is complex. It is not simply about willpower, eating less, or trying harder. Sustainable change requires understanding your body, your habits, and the factors that influence health.
As a specialist Nutritional Therapist and Health Coach, my role is to help you make sense of that complexity, identify what works for you, and build sustainable changes that support your health long term.

A different starting point
If you have struggled with your weight, you have probably heard the same advice:
But weight is influenced by far more than willpower. Your appetite, biology, hormones, environment, emotions, habits and life experiences all play a role.
Understanding this changes everything. Instead of another short-term plan, we focus on an approach that supports your health and works with your real life.
How I help
GLP-1 medications such as Wegovy and Mounjaro can be powerful tools, but medication is only one part of the journey. I help you make the most of your treatment.
Medication can help create change. The right support helps you sustain it.
Learn about GLP-1 supportLosing weight is one step. Maintaining it is where many people struggle. Whether you are reducing medication or protecting your progress, I help you build the skills and confidence to maintain results.
Medication is not the right choice for everyone. We work together to understand what has made weight management difficult in the past and create a personalised approach that fits your life.
Does this sound familiar?
You do not need more information. You need support turning knowledge into lasting change.
The approach
Most weight programmes give you a plan and expect you to follow it. Lasting change requires more than information.
Understanding what your body needs to support health, energy, muscle and sustainable weight change.
Turning knowledge into action through realistic goals, behaviour change strategies and ongoing support.
The science behind weight regulation, appetite, medication and the real challenges of changing your health.
Together, we create an approach that is practical, personalised and sustainable.

Kind words
"Nikki radiates a rare mix of warmth, clarity, and professionalism. She helped me identify goals that felt genuinely supportive and realistic, and offered thoughtful guidance on how to approach change gradually without feeling overwhelmed."
"It's so nice to talk to someone who clearly gets it. She knows what I've been through to get here. It's so nice not to beat myself up over food anymore. It's liberating, and it's nice that she gets that."
"I leave these calls feeling lighter (no pun intended). With her nurture and guidance not only do I feel physically better, but mentally I feel like I am in the best headspace of my life."
"Nikki has a very calming, non-judgemental and trustworthy energy. She was warm, non-dismissive and never disingenuous. This is key for me. I look forward to future sessions with her."
