HELLO, I’M ZARA
Experienced Nutritionist, Counsellor & Coach
Here are some things I believe you should know about me and how they impact the way I can help.
I have lived experience of having ADHD and getting a ‘late’ diagnosis in my 30’s. I’ve also faced my own health and wellness challenges such as disordered eating and childhood obesity.
I understand that facing health and wellness challenges can be deeply personal and multifaceted.
I’ve worked with many individuals who have faced similar challenges, whether it’s struggling with nutrition, managing stress, or navigating living with ADHD. This experience helps me empathise with your struggles and understand your unique needs with genuine understanding and compassion.
I recognise that health issues aren’t just about diet or exercise—they’re interconnected with emotional and psychological factors. My approach addresses all these aspects, which helps me relate to the broader context of your challenges.
I believe in tailoring solutions to fit individual circumstances which is why I trained in integrative counselling. I know that what works for one person may not work for another.
By relating first hand to your experiences and offering a compassionate, personalised approach, I strive to provide meaningful support that addresses your specific needs and helps you achieve your wellness goals.
I aim to build a supportive and non-judgmental relationship with my clients. I understand that making changes can be difficult, and I’m here to provide encouragement and guidance every step of the way.

My drive comes from a deep commitment to helping people lead healthier, happier lives and the satisfaction that comes from witnessing their growth.
Seeing clients transform their health and well-being is incredibly rewarding. I’m motivated by the opportunity to make a positive impact on people’s lives and help them reach their full potential.
I’m dedicated to a holistic approach that considers not just diet and exercise but also emotional and mental well-being. This comprehensive perspective aligns with my belief in the interconnectedness of health and helps me address clients’ needs more effectively.
I’ve experienced and witnessed the challenges and triumphs associated with health and wellness. My own journey, coupled with the experiences of those I’ve worked with, fuels my passion for supporting others through their own paths to better health.
