Fiona discovered that nutritional medicine and natural therapies was the key to good health after several years of serious health problems where she was diagnosed with two auto immune diseases and had small strokes that resulted in brain damage including partial blindness. It didn’t take long to discover that everything that she had been taught about nutrition was wrong!

Not knowing what to believe, Fiona studied nutritional medicine to learn how to heal herself; realising that knowledge is power and you can’t believe everything you are taught about nutrition by people who are sponsored by food companies!

Very proud to call herself Nutritional Medicine Practitioner; she has her own unique style with clients naturally moving between nutrition, counselling and coaching as required.

Having experienced significant health issues and weight issues in the past, Fiona relates to the shame, fear and humiliation that people having health or weight challenges may be feeling. Knowledgeable on the science of hormones, hunger etc along with an excellent understanding of emotional eating and negative self talk and the powerful language we use about food and how all of these things combined can effect your results and ability to succeed in your health goals.

In the previous role of Education Support Partner – Fiona was one of hosts of Business Minds podcast for Sydney Hills Business Chamber.

Along with her media work, Fiona is available for individual consultations via Telehealth video consultation or at our Kurmond clinic, you can book here.

Fiona is also proud to be a That Sugar Movement Ambassador.
