I don’t require an initial consultation as a prerequisite. Most families have their first consultation after I’ve reviewed their child's health questionnaire and lab results, so we can begin with a clear understanding of what’s going on.

All consultations are held virtually, either by telephone or over Microsoft Teams — whichever feels easiest and most comfortable for you. This allows families to access support from home without travel, childcare or added stress.

Yes. Testing is a core part of my approach. It helps us understand what’s driving symptoms so we can make decisions based on real information, not guesswork.

I specialise in Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA), Organic Acid Testing (OAT), GI‑MAP stool testing and genetic testing. I only use tests that add meaningful insight. I use the right tests - not all of the tests.

Prior to your consultation Unlike other practitioners, an initial consultation isn't a prerequisite.​ Prior to your appointment, I conduct a comprehensive health questionnaire review. We explore symptoms, behaviours, infections, regressions, triggers, and patterns.​​​​​ I use the right tests, not all the tests,  to identify what’s driving your child’s symptoms.​​  I don’t simply skim through results;  I dedicate time to thoroughly analyse findings. This careful preparation means that when I present your results, they are explained clearly step by step. ​ During your consultation ​Your results, are explained in detail, in a way that is easy to understand. You'll gain clear root‑cause insights and  finally understand why your child feels the way they do.​​ My approach is intentionally thorough and never rushed. I value your time and ensure there is ample opportunity for you to ask any questions, making your experience as informative and supportive as possible. ​ After your consultation ​You will receive a personalised nutrition and supplement plan tailored specifically to your needs or those of your child. My plans are simple, realistic and designed to fit into your family life.​​​ ​ Follow Up Support ​Whilst follow‑up support is recommended — to review and adjust the plan, support you through flares and help prevent overwhelm — it’s always designed to be flexible. I offer follow‑up consultations and email support options so you can access guidance in a way that fits around your time, your energy and your financial boundaries, without adding pressure. ​ Support for parents ​Many of the parents I work with are living with chronic stress, disrupted sleep and nervous system overload after years of caregiving and advocating. Your health matters too.I offer a parent‑only support package for those who want dedicated help with their own wellbeing, energy, sleep and resilience.When parents feel better, the whole family benefits. ​ How consultations are conducted ​All consultations are held online, either by telephone or via Microsoft Teams — whichever feels easiest and most comfortable for you. This removes the need for travel, childcare or added pressure. ​ A calmer, clearer path forward ​My aim is to help you understand what’s happening, reduce the overwhelm, and create a plan that genuinely supports your child — and you. ​

Yes. I take time to thoroughly analyse results before your appointment, so when we meet I can walk you through everything step by step. You’ll understand what the findings mean, how they relate to your child’s symptoms and what we can do next. There’s always space for questions, and the process is never rushed. ​ ​

Yes. I support children and young people across a wide age range, including those with complex neurodevelopmental or neuroimmune needs.

​Yes, after your consultation you will receive a personalised nutrition and supplement plan tailored specifically to your needs or those of your child. My plans are simple, realistic and designed to fit into your family life.​​​

Yes, I recommend supplements when they’re genuinely needed and supported by testing. I avoid unnecessary supplements and always explain the reasoning behind each recommendation. Many of the children I work with have limited diets, so targeted supplementation can play an important role in supporting their health.

Yes. Alongside my work with children, I also support parents and carers whose own health has been impacted by years of caregiving, disrupted sleep and chronic stress. When parents feel more regulated, rested and well, the whole family benefits.

Pebble Nutrition is a small, family‑run practice shaped by years of care and experience. Families receive personalised one‑to‑one support, with the reassurance that their practitioner is part of a warm, well‑established, and closely connected team.

Yes. I offer ongoing support. I recommend follow‑up appointments and also offer email support, both of which are optional extras. You can choose the level of support that feels right for your family.

Yes. The plan is always designed to be manageable for your family. We focus on what will make the biggest difference, at a pace that works for your child and fits into real family life.

No. I don’t diagnose or treat medical conditions. My role is to support your child’s health through nutrition, testing insights and a whole‑child approach, alongside your existing medical care.

No. I don’t diagnose medical or neurodevelopmental conditions. My role is to understand underlying contributors and support your child’s health through nutrition.

I sometimes use Biochemic Tissue Salts as a gentle starting point for particularly sensitive or reluctant children. They allow support to be introduced in a gradual, low‑overwhelm way when adding supplements feels challenging. They may also be included as part of a wider personalised plan alongside nutrition and other recommendations. While they don’t replace dietary minerals or a balanced diet, many parents find them easy to introduce for children who are sensitive to stronger supplements. I only recommend them when they feel appropriate for the individual child, and longer‑term support is always guided by symptoms, history, and any relevant testing. As with all complementary approaches, responses can vary from person to person.
