Who We Are

As the Founder of the London Centre for Functional Medicine, I take an approach that doesn’t just address symptoms but seeks to understand and address the underlying factors contributing to health imbalances.

My work with clients is grounded in the functional medicine model, with nutrition at the core of every protocol. I have a deep belief in nutrition and have seen first-hand how profoundly it can transform lives.

As a fully qualified  functional medicine practitioner and nutritional therapist (CNHC registered) and I firmly believe the functional medicine model represents the future of healthcare for lifestyle-related diseases and their associated conditions. I also believe it can play an important role in relieving pressure on the NHS, allowing conventional medicine to focus on acute care, where it is most effective.

Like many practitioners, my journey into this profession was shaped by my own health challenges. At different times I have personally overcome chronic Candida, parasitic and SIBO infections, as well as issues related to heavy metals, mould and oxalate toxicity. I have truly “walked the walk” and understand what it feels like to be extremely unwell while desperately trying to get your health back. This allows me to deeply empathise with clients who come to the clinic having explored multiple routes, including conventional medicine, often with limited success.

I am passionate about helping clients achieve optimal health through a fully personalised approach. This may involve exploring genetics, nutrition, lifestyle factors, toxin exposure, infections and stress. By looking at these areas together, we can identify the root causes of imbalance and choose the most appropriate approach to support recovery. This contrasts with conventional symptom-focused care, where unresolved root causes can lead to symptoms reappearing elsewhere in the body over time.

I support clients with a wide range of health concerns affecting multiple body systems. I have a particular focus on gut and digestive issues, including SIBO, IBS, acid reflux and Candida, as well as autoimmune conditions, mould-related illness, hormone imbalance and chronic fatigue, always working alongside their medical care. I believe many health issues ultimately trace back to the microbiome, and that creating the right internal “terrain” is essential for good health. Liver and gallbladder health is a special interest of mine, as these organs act as a gateway to whole-body health yet often receive too little attention.

I strongly believe in the importance of balance in life. Outside of clinical practice, I am passionate about squash, cooking and football. I have won Irish and British National Squash titles, competed in the European and World Squash Championships, and continue to play at a competitive level within my age group.
