Background & Bio details
I am a Nutritionist and Functional Medicine Practitioner specialising in optimising brain health and mental wellbeing. I run https://www.rehealthclinic.co.uk/ and lead a team of skilled practitioners in providing diet, nutrition, and lifestyle medicine for a wide range of brain and mental health conditions.
With advanced training in Dr Bredesen’s protocols for Alzheimer’s prevention and reversal, a Fellowship in Integrative Psychiatry under Dr James Greenblatt, and certification as a Shoemaker Proficiency Partner for mould-related illness, I bring a uniquely specialised and evidence-based approach to complex brain and mental health challenges.
Through our Brain Optimisation Programme, we support adults experiencing cognitive decline, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s disease, and menopause-related brain changes. We also offer an integrative psychiatry approach for mental health conditions including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD, and schizophrenia – working alongside conventional care to uncover and address root causes rather than simply managing symptoms. For appropriate cases, we incorporate ketogenic metabolic therapy, an emerging evidence-based strategy for supporting brain health and mental wellbeing.
Alongside this, we also work with children and teenagers with ADHD, autism, behavioural challenges and mood disorders, helping them to thrive and achieve their fullest potential.
At the heart of our work is detective work – using advanced laboratory testing to identify underlying biochemical imbalances, genetic vulnerabilities, and nutritional deficiencies. With this knowledge, we create personalised nutrition and lifestyle strategies to restore balance and optimise brain function.
