Welcome to Nurture & Nourish!
Struggling to find a balanced approach to eating that is right for you or your family?
​
You're not alone.
​
Nurture & Nourish offers nutrition support that fosters a positive relationship with food, for individuals and families alike.
HOW I CAN HELP
I'm Sophie, an HCPC registered dietitian with a clinical background in adult and paediatric care under a range of medical specialties. I empower each of my patients with individualised nutrition guidance that supports them in discovering and maintaining a healthy relationship with food. I also support parents in fostering this for their children.
True nourishment is grounded in our relationship with food
MY APPROACH
Through my services, I apply evidence-based nutrition with therapeutic tools such as the Intuitive Eating and ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) principles. This framework empowers us to eat in a healthy and nurturing way, and enables us to effectively manage:
-
gastrointestinal conditions (e.g. reflux, constipation, IBS, coeliac disease)
-
nutritional deficiencies
-
food allergies and intolerances
-
disordered eating
-
weight and body image concerns
-
type I and II diabetes
-
cardiovascular conditions
-
weaning challenges
-
fussy eating and selective/restrictive diets
-
childhood growth concerns
What to Expect
-
Personalised support: We’ll explore your current diet and relationship with food to develop strategies that address your needs.
-
Holistic Approach: Expect nutrition guidance that serves your emotional, psychological, social, and physical well-being.
-
Empowerment: Learn how to shift from following food rules to aligning with your body. This approach frees you from the pressure and confusion generated by diet trends.
-
Flexible Follow-Up: Benefit from ongoing, flexible sessions tailored to your evolving needs.​
​
I Do Not Offer
-
Diet Plans: Without medical justification, I do not provide meal plans or fixed food rules.
-
Weight-Focused Goals: My guidance does not centre on weight management.
-
Temporary Fixes: While simple solutions are often suitable, getting to the source of the problem is sometimes required. This programme works by creating positive and sustainable results.

WHAT ABOUT WEIGHT?
Health is not defined by weight
In my practice, weight is not the focus.
​
Research shows that weight-centric goals are often ineffective and harmful to overall health. Weight is not a reliable indicator of well-being, and preoccupation with it can overlook and exacerbate underlying issues.
​
We instead progress by building and integrating individually-suited lifestyle habits which support physical and mental health.
