Beyond the scales
You need a healthcare provider who sees you as more than just your weight
weight inclusive healthcare
You’re tired of having to defend yourself and persuade your doctor that what you’re feeling and saying is true
You need someone to believe you
You want practical solutions that make sense and work for you as an individual, instead of being fobbed off
No more basic, generalised advice
You need help accessing the care and treatment that you need, so you can reclaim your power and find your voice
You need an expert to show you how
You’re more than a diagnosis or tests results. You deserve individualised care, which is only possible if your doctor gets to know you
You need a doctor who takes their time with you
You don’t want to be treated like a second-class citizen and want to know what you should expect from your doctor and what you are entitled to
You want help to understand your rights
You keep asking yourself, “is this normal?” But your doctor isn't asking the right questions or interested in trying to answer yours
You need to understand what is going on in your body
My clients are
ready for a radically different experience
They're fed up of being treated like crap by their doctors. They’ve had enough. They know they deserve better.
My clients are
enthusiastic about taking their power back
from a medical system that was designed to oppress Fat people. They’re done with the status quo. They want something better.
My clients are
ready to prioritise themselves
They know that making an investment in their health and wellbeing will ripple through the rest of their lives.
My clients are
not interested in pursuing weight loss
That doesn’t mean they aren’t tempted, especially if they’re being pressured or coerced into it. But ultimately they know it isn’t sustainable.
Real Experiences, Real Change
How I’ve Supported Others on Their Journey
Stories of Transformation and Support
Beth had been diabetic for over ten years, and her last three blood pressure readings had been high. She was terrified of visiting her doctor because she knew he would blame her weight and lecture her about weight loss. That in turn would trigger weeks of insecurity, shame and disordered eating. Instead, she came to me and together we looked through her latest test results, came up with a step-by-step management plan for her blood pressure, and created a bespoke script to take use at her next doctor’s appointment.
Jess has been told by her doctor that her cholesterol was high, her HbA1C was at the top end of normal, and she had “a bit of a fatty liver”. Her doctor had convinced her that if she didn’t act now, she’d probably have a heart attack within the next ten years. Jess was in eating disorder recovery and the last thing she wanted to do was pursue weight loss, but what choice did she have? The first thing I did was calculate her cardiovascular risk. Then we worked on her negative health beliefs. The more she unlearned, the more her confidence grew until she no longer feared or felt the need to avoid her doctor.
Kyle was in the middle of a fibromyalgia flare up when they consulted with me. They struggled to take the kids to school or push a cart around the supermarket. Their GP offered no advice or treatment other than recommending weight loss and cutting down on stress. Together we identified all of Kyle’s needs and came up with a plan to ensure each of them were met. We also worked on their shame and fear around disability and weight stigma, with a view to a life of thriving as opposed to merely surviving.

What they say
Success stories
“I just wanted to say, thank you so so much for today. I have never sat in front of a doctor and been so consistently validated and believed and listened to, and been treated as the whole and complex person that I am”
“After speaking to you I feel confident, stronger, and able to advocate for myself and the same level of care as everyone else in my situation.”
“My consultation with you has
helped me in more ways than I
can list here or even have the
words to describe. Talking to
you about what I’ve been
dealing with, I finally feel heard
and no longer alone.”
