Success Stories

See what some of my clients say about working with me

Ruth

“I am so grateful to you Aurea for the work you have done supporting me with my nutrition as I train for the London Marathon. From even before I met you at the first consultation you took the time to get to know me and my needs, and you really listened and remembered what I had said. I didn't feel embarrassed or judged talking to you because you always used a nice humour to discuss everything with me. I was able to implement your suggestions really easily because they were 'doable' for us as a family and I started to notice positive changes much quicker than I expected. It is not an exaggeration to say that meeting you has been life-changing and without your advice I think I was on quite a slippery slope to a very lazy and carb-rich diet that was making me sluggish and affecting my running performance.”

“I just wanted to tell you I have been using your plan since May to prepare for a half marathon and my running times have improved hugely on shorter distances (something I have never managed before). I did 1hr and 52mins in the half marathon today which is 12 minutes faster than my previous personal best! I have now lost 12lbs and all my clothes don’t fit either!! My husband has lost over a stone too!! It’s all because of you and I just wanted to say thank you for all your advice.”

Jackie

“Aurea was fantastic and she very quickly identified several areas where my diet could be greatly improved to support my recovery from pneumonia. Aurea’s advice and suggestions were spot on and backed up with very sensible explanations of the science and evidence behind them. I found it easy to accommodate Aurea’s suggestions into my diet and routine, and her advice was given in such a kind and sympathetic way that I always felt she had my back. I would say that I have had a huge benefit to my health and well-being from following Aurea’s very clear and comprehensive nutritional advice - I will always be very grateful for this and would highly recommend her.”

Keith

“Aurea added to my awareness and knowledge with the latest science and thinking around nutrition. Her understanding of pre-diabetes was incredibly informative and useful, but what was particularly powerful about how Aurea worked with me was looking at simple and practical changes I could make that would be sustainable. She also encouraged me to try new ways to manage my nutrition by using the science behind them – being a cynic of fad diets this was really important to me if I was to change my habits. Her ability to work alongside me and my current awareness and knowledge, whilst challenging some of the commonly held mistruths, allowed me to look at my nutritional health differently but also supported me to make simple and sustainable changes. I think her experience as a psychologist amplifies her ability as a Nutritional Therapist by being able to support people to change unhelpful behaviours to ones which foster a healthier lifestyle within the person’s own goals. Whilst our engagement may have been ‘light touch’ in terms of time, it certainly wasn’t light in impact as I am no longer pre-diabetic. Thanks Aurea.”

Amanda

“Aurea is amazing and I can’t recommend her highly enough! I came to her to get some advice as my 2-year-old daughter had a dairy intolerance and severe eczema which was very inflamed and sore. Aurea was very understanding and listened to what was going on for my daughter. She asked great questions and made some suggestions as to different approaches I could try. The results were nothing short of miraculous! My daughter is now 4 ½ years old, can eat dairy to her hearts content with no ill effects and I can’t remember the last time she had an eczema flair up!”

Fiona

“Thank you so much for the difference you have made in my approach to food and your guidance in understanding nutrition. My nutrition and well-being programme has helped me in so many ways and I would wholeheartedly recommend anyone who seriously wants to feel better in themselves to work with you. I am so grateful to have been able to learn from you as your information, guidance and resources have helped me over the 12 weeks to find a balance in my eating and approach to cooking and food. I have learnt so many things, most importantly that it is not about what to eat, it is why to eat something and how it will help sustain and nourish your body which then reflects on everything in your life.”

Simon

“Having suffered with long term stomach pain and reached a dead end with my doctor, I went to Aurea for some nutritional advice. She was great to work with - patient and understanding – and she applied what seemed like an almost inexhaustible depth of knowledge to provide me with a bespoke nutritional plan. Following Aurea's guidance has proved to be literally life enhancing! Within a few weeks my pain has stopped and I now know how to prevent it reoccurring! Aurea's advice was simple and easy to follow, and although I had to make some long-term changes to my eating and lifestyle, they were definitely worth it. Thanks Aurea.”

Anna

“I have suffered since I was 15 years old with gut issues. I found a way to cope but never tackled the underlying issues. I turned 40 this year and after a few bouts of illness, huge amounts of stress and not looking after myself, I was in a really terrible cycle and had not felt worse for a long time - I was having daily symptoms and was utterly deflated. A friend recommended Aurea and I booked an appointment which was the turning point. The difference in my condition from my first session to my final session was incredible. I am feeling 100% better, I have 90% less symptoms and I have achieved all the goals I set out in my initial consultation. Aurea didn't make any drastic changes, she listened to me and helped create a program that fitted into my life, while keeping me motivated, positive and supported. Each session I learnt more and each change I made helped me feel slightly better. Each session I would reflect on the past time working with her and I couldn't believe the small changes I made resulted in such enormous effects to my quality of life. Aurea was patient, incredibly knowledgeable and supportive through the whole process. I could not recommend her any more highly.”

Shelly

“I recently completed Aurea's programme and I am delighted with the results. I engaged with Aurea as I wanted to understand the effects of perimenopause on weight. I have never had to struggle with weight, but I noticed that post reaching 40 the weight would not drop off easily as it did before. I have never dieted, and I wanted to discover a changed lifestyle that would maintain my health and ideal weight. Aurea was brilliant and through her teaching and setting out a plan, I have discovered a 'new normal' i.e. no diets, just a different way of eating based on a different way of thinking. It was a brilliant investment and I thoroughly enjoyed the process. Money well spent!.”
