Personalised Nutrition & Lifestyle Support

There are several ways we can work together, depending on where you are now and how much support you'd like.

Whether you want a one-off review to help understand your current nutrition, support with a specific health concern or a structured programme to make lasting changes, we'll start by identifying your priorities and agreeing the approach that's right for you.

My specialist areas include:

Brain health & healthy ageing
Bone & muscle health
Metabolic health
Midlife & menopause

I also work with a range of other health concerns where personalised nutritional therapy can provide valuable complementary support.

If you're unsure which option is right for you, book a free 30-minute exploratory call and we can talk through your goals.

Nutrition Audit

Not sure whether your everyday diet is really supporting your health?

You don't need to have a specific health problem to benefit from personalised nutrition advice.

If you'd like an expert pair of eyes on your current diet and lifestyle, my Nutrition Audit is a practical place to start.

You'll complete a three-day food diary before your 60-minute consultation. We'll then review your current nutrition, discuss your goals and identify the changes that are most likely to make a meaningful difference.

You'll leave with clear, personalised recommendations and an agreed action plan - not another generic healthy-eating checklist.

Nutrition Audit: £95

Ultimate Wellness Check

Want a more comprehensive picture of your current health?

If you're proactively thinking about your future health, or simply want a deeper look at your nutritional and metabolic status, the Ultimate Wellness Check provides a more comprehensive starting point.

It includes a private blood test covering 56 markers, followed by a 60-minute consultation to review the results and identify the areas that may benefit from nutritional and lifestyle support.

The emphasis is not on testing for the sake of testing. It's about using relevant information to help identify where your priorities should be.

Ultimate Wellness Check: £350 [includes blood test and a nurse home visit to take blood.]

12-Week Programmes

The Menopause Method

A personalised 1:1 nutrition and lifestyle programme for women who want more than a quick fix.

Menopause is more than hot flushes and changing hormone

levels. It's a significant transition in a woman's life that can

affect sleep, energy, mood, body composition, appetite, brain function, bone health and metabolic health.

The Brain Health Blueprint

A 1:1 nutrition and lifestyle programme for women who want a proactive, personalised approach to brain health, and to the bones, muscles and metabolic health that go with it.

Your brain changes throughout your life. The good news is that many factors associated with cognitive health are modifiable.

Both programmes involve 12 weeks of 1:1 support:

✔ 90-minute initial consultation

✔ 5 × 60 minute follow-up sessions

✔ Interpretation of your blood test results

✔ Email/WhatsApp support between sessions

✔ Final review one month later

£1,200, or 3 monthly payments of £400

Individual Nutritional Therapy Consultations

If If you're looking for personalised support around a specific health concern, nutrition goal or lifestyle change, individual consultations offer a flexible, focused way to work together.

Your initial 90-minute consultation gives us time to understand your health history, current nutrition and lifestyle, symptoms and goals in detail. You’ll leave with a clear, tailored plan and a good understanding of what’s likely to help and why.

60-minute follow-up consultations allow us to review progress, troubleshoot challenges, refine your plan and build sustainable habits over time. You can book these as and when you need them, at a pace that suits you.

Where appropriate, I can also help you interpret existing NHS blood results and discuss whether additional private testing may be useful. Plus I can advise on and recommend dietary supplements if and when appropriate to you.

Please note: booking individual consultations doesn't allow for the ongoing accountability and support between sessions that come with the programme approach. If you’d like regular check-ins and messaging support to help you stay on track, consider one of my 12-week programmes.

Initial Nutritional Therapy Consultation: £250 (90 minutes)

Follow-up Consultation: £150 (60-minutes)

Corporate Wellness Workshops and Talks

Many organisations are investing in employee wellness, and menopause support is increasingly part of that picture. With a 30-year corporate career in marketing behind me, I understand first-hand the pressures of working full-time in a demanding environment, and how much harder that is to manage without the right support.

I design and deliver bespoke workshops, talks and wellness sessions to educate, empower and equip your workforce to feel and perform at their best. Sessions could include pop-up clinics offering employees a short one-to-one consultation slot.

Recent workshop topics include:

Managing menopause at work
Healthy eating and nutrition fundamentals
Managing stress
Sustainable, healthy weight loss
How to get a good night's sleep
Reducing cancer risk
Reducing the risk of dementia and Alzheimer's
Reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke

Following completion of your healthcare we retain your personal data for the period defined by our professional association BANT and registrant body, CHNC. This enables us to process any complaint you may make. In this case the legal basis of our holding your personal data is for contract administration.

Information I get from other sources

I may obtain sensitive medical information in the form of test results from biochemical testing companies. I use this information in order to provide you with direct healthcare. This means that the legal basis of my holding your personal data is for legitimate interest.

I may obtain sensitive information from other healthcare providers. The provision of this information is subject to you giving me your express consent. If I do not receive this consent from you, I will not be able to coordinate your healthcare with that provided by other providers which means the healthcare provided by me may be less effective.

How I use your personal data

I act as a data controller for use of your personal data to provide direct healthcare. I also act as a controller and processor in regard to the processing of your data from third parties such as testing companies and other healthcare providers. I act as a data controller and processor in regard to the processing of credit card and online payments.

I undertake at all times to protect your personal data, including any health and contact details, in a manner which is consistent with my duty of professional confidence and the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) concerning data protection. I will also take reasonable security measures to protect your personal data storage.

I may use your personal data where there is an overriding public interest in using the information e.g. in order to safeguard an individual, or to prevent a serious crime. Also where there is a legal requirement such as a formal court order. I may use your data for marketing purposes such as newsletters but this would be subject to you giving me your express consent.

Do you share my information with other organisations?

I will keep information about you confidential. I will only disclose your information with other third parties with your express consent with the exception of the following categories of third parties:

* My registrant body, CNHC and my professional association, BANT, for the processing of a complaint made by you

* Any contractors and advisors that provide a service to me or act as my agents on the understanding that they keep the information confidential

* Anyone to whom I may transfer my rights and duties under any agreement I have with you

I may share your information with supplement companies and biochemical testing companies as part of providing you with direct healthcare. I will not include any sensitive information

I will seek your express consent before sharing your information with your GP or other healthcare providers. However if I believe that your life is in danger then I may pass your information onto an appropriate authority (such as the police, social services in the case of a child or vulnerable adult, or GP in case of self-harm) using the legal basis of vital interests.

I may share your case history in an anonymised form with my peers for the purpose of professional development. This may be at clinical supervision meetings, conferences, online forums, and through publishing in medical journals, trade magazines or online professional sites. I will seek your explicit consent before processing your data in this way.

What safeguards are in place to ensure data that identifies me is secure?

I only use information that may identify you in accordance with GDPR. This requires me to process personal data only if there is a legitimate basis for doing so and that any processing must be fair and lawful.

Within the health sector, I also have to follow the common law duty of confidence, which means that where identifiable information about you has been given in confidence, it should be treated as confidential and only shared for the purpose of providing direct healthcare. I will protect your information, inform you of how your information will be used, and allow you to decide if and how your information can be shared.

I also ensure the information I hold is kept in secure locations, restrict access to information to authorised personnel only, protect personal and confidential information held on equipment such as laptops with encryption (which masks data so that unauthorised users cannot see or make sense of it). I ensure external data processors that support me are legally and contractually bound to operate and prove security arrangements are in place where data that could or does identify a person are processed.

How long do you hold confidential information for?

All records held by RitchNutrition will be kept for the duration specified by guidance from our professional association BANT.
