"Claire has helped me to change the way I look at food, and taught me to trust my body and regain control of my life. Since our first appointment, she has been a constant support both in and between sessions and a central part of my recovery. Claire is patient and understanding, always listening and reassuring the anxieties of both me and my parents. She has worked with me to reach a healthy place, explaining the science and rationale behind her advice. I am very grateful for the continuous guidance, practical and emotional support Claire offers." Patient A, Age 21.
Before consulting Claire, I had already been informed by other professionals in the field about the vast number of qualifications and success she had had in the past. Although she may be qualified as a dietician, her support and expertise stretch much further as she not only conveyed the precise nutritional needs required for my body but even helped heal my relationship with both food and myself. After each session our relationship became closer and my trust was reinforced as she could sense what was really happening beneath the surface and benevolently pushed me to fight the battles no one else could do for me. Her caring and considerate nature was undeniably shown by her true desire to support a change where I can now view food as an exciting and relaxing facet of life rather than a persistent source of stress and emotional anxiety. Claire’s support extended beyond our sessions as she encouraged me to reach out to her if I was struggling or having a hard time with any weekly challenges and this did not change throughout the whole period I was seeing her. She has completely changed my life in ways I never thought were possible when I first started to talk to her and I have never felt more confident, relaxed and energised about myself and my relationship with food. I do not regret anything about consulting Claire as I cannot imagine my life without the support I was given and the myriad of advice imparted to me. I am truly in debt to her and cannot thank her enough for the role she played in my recovery. Patient T, age 18 years
"Working with Claire has had an enormous impact on our son’s entire wellbeing. Claire provided the care and information we needed to identify and understand his special requirements, allowing us to plan an approach to tackle his dietary needs. The support we received as a family was superb. Claire has given us the key information we so desperately lacked and by recommending supplements and alternatives has allowed our son to thrive and continue to develop healthily on a restricted diet. Since tackling his food intolerances, our baby boy is so much happier. The difference has been outstanding. Now that we have all adjusted to his dietary requirement, every aspect of his development has benefited. He’s happier, healthier and altogether a more contented little boy. We simply couldn’t have done it without Claire." Parents of baby under 12 months
"Thank you so much for your patience and care throughout my recovery...I am a much happier person because of it, and I know that a huge part of my anorexia recovery was down to you :) I remember how you used to encourage me that it was possible to have a life without n eating disorder and I actually think I may be on my way to that."
