What Our Clients Say
I initially reached out to Amy to get some help/insight into my incredibly imbalanced hormones due to being on the contraceptive pill for many years and to ensure I was nourishing my body during this sensitive time of rebalancing.
I had never been to a nutritionist before and was not entirely sure what to expect. Amy was incredibly thorough during our consultation. We covered every aspect of my health. Amy listened to my concerns and empathized with my feelings of disconnect with my body that my GP had dismissed or ignored. Amy really created a safe place where I felt 110% in the best hands possible. Amy provided me with incredible knowledge and insight into my body, my nutrition, the connection between them, and a support plan to follow. I left out consultation feeling empowered by the knowledge and insight I had received specific to my needs.
Since then, I have never felt better mentally or physically. Amy’s support and advice are something incredibly special to me, particularly for this intimate and sensitive journey.
Thank you, Amy! You are an incredibly special and skilled person. I am so thankful I found you
