How Long Will Input Take?
This is a very understandable question, but unfortunately it’s impossible to give a simple answer as each person’s needs are so varied and individual.
It’s important to be aware that healing your relationship with food takes time. In fact, some of the awareness and self-discovery is a lifelong journey. Of course, we don’t intend to work with you for the rest of your life, but to give you the tools and skills to continue this for yourself.
To give you a rough idea, on average we tend to work with our clients for 6 to 9 months, but some people don’t need as much support as this and others work with us for years.
In the beginning, sessions are often more frequent, gradually spacing out as you gain confidence and tools to continue independently.
Remember, this process takes time, but it’s an investment in your long-term health and happiness.

What Makes These Appointments Different?
Our approach is thoughtfully designed to help you to heal your relationship with food.
Here’s what sets us apart:
- Holistic Approach: Our bespoke method blends the principles of intuitive eating, psychology, nutrition, and disordered eating recovery to address the whole person, promoting lasting and meaningful change.
- Collaborative Support: We don’t just tell you what to do (this doesn’t work in the long run). Instead, we partner with you, guiding and empowering you to take control of your health—leading to real, sustainable progress.
- Compassionate Environment: We create a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel heard, supported, and respected at every step of your journey.
- Personalised Care: Every session is tailored to your evolving needs and priorities, ensuring the guidance you receive is as unique as you are.
We also offer flexible video-based sessions and optional tools for ongoing support, giving you the resources and guidance you need to succeed, no matter how busy life gets.
These appointments put you and your relationship with food at the centre. We work collaboratively with our clients, rather than just telling you what to do. We are like a nutrition tour guide, there to support and guide on your journey to a peaceful relationship with food.
We strive to create a compassionate, non-judgemental and empowering environment for our clients, as you are ultimately the expert in yourself.
There is no set blueprint for the appointments as they are always tailored to meet the changing needs of each individual client.
We also make use of user-friendly technology in order to provide the option of a higher level of support and monitoring, as compared with only interacting during scheduled appointments.
