THE NEURODIVERGENT NUTRITIONIST.

From one ADHD Women to another. Helping you overcome the overwhelm and eat with ease.

Hello, I’m Helen.

Tired of meal plans that never stick?

I used to try and follow all the neurotypical nutrition and health advice too – until I realised how weird and wonderful my ADHD brain is, and that it needed a completely different approach.

As a Neurodivergent Nutritionist and ADHD Coach, I’ll guide you through my signature methodology – The Empowered Living Method – to simplify nutrition, reduce cravings, and build lasting healthy eating habits designed for ease, flexibility, and success with your ADHD brain.

Welcome to my little corner of the internet – it’s great to have you here!

Testimonies of Clients

With the right support, and a willingness to approach food, health, and ADHD in a new way, the impact can be truly life-changing.It starts with feeling seen, supported and finally believing in yourself.

“Working with Helen is transformative! I meet with her on a Friday morning and every time I meet with her it’s like a sigh of relief. The stress levels reduce and she makes me a better person and a better leader and I love working with her!”

- Tara (CEO)

“Coaching with Helen has been life changing. Her passionate, non-judgemental and enlightening sessions have enabled me to revaluate my health and lifestyle. I have emerged stronger and happier and cannot recommend Helen highly enough.”

- Farah (Doctor)

“I would encourage anyone considering these sessions to go for it. They are an investment in the long term… I learned so much practical advice on improving my nutritional intake. I ended each session feeling empowered to eat better and also tune into myself a little more.”

- LC (Academic)

“Helen is completely non-judging and often says she has gone through similar situations. I would 100% recommend Helen to anyone who feels they need that kick up the butt to get their life in order!”

- Hannah (Professional)

“Hi Helen,

I just wanted to thank you for your time, and all the information and advice you have given me.

It has been really helpful, and has boosted my motivation to be as healthy as I can.

Many thanks and very best wishes for all you do,”

- Joy

“…Working with Helen gave me loads of strategies. I think for me it’s been really important actually to work with, with a nutritionist who’s neurodivergent as well.”

- 59 year old adhd caroline completed my 1:1 12 week programme

“…you won’t find anybody who is better at holding a more compassionate and safe space than helen. i think she brings incredible knowledge and experience, that’s not gimmicky, that’s not driven by the latest trends.”

- Autistic adhd sophie signed up to my 1:1 12 week programme

“Working with you has been transformative. You gave me the space and support to listen -really listen -to my own body’s needs for the first time in
a very long time.

You helped me see that health doesn’t have to look like waking up at 5am, cooking elaborate meals from scratch, or forcing
myself into routines that don’t suit who I am.

I end this part of our journey feeling lighter, stronger, and genuinely optimistic about the path ahead.”

- Sophie- AuDHD (1:1 programme)

“I’ve gained practical skills (effective meal planning, food-related factual knowledge) that have helped with overwhelm, sugar no longer has a prominent place in my life, and I’ve learned how to listen to my body and its cues to identify hunger earlier, so
no more hangry feelings! …The programme for me has been life-changing… Helen created a space in which I could express myself, grow in confidence, and thrive. And in my experience as an ADHD perimenopausal woman, these spaces are rare.”

- Menopausal ADHD Woman (1:1 programme)

“I have more confidence, vitality, energy and time now I’m less focused on
food decisions (have more knowledge now)…
I am not the best cook but that doesn’t matter. What matters is listening to my body and eating healthy food that will nourish me”.
