Nutritional Therapist with a keen interest in thyroid health that developed while still studying for my NT degree and became my speciality after two of my close family members were diagnosed with autoimmune thyroid disease. I've been working for the past few years with people dealing with all sorts of thyroid issues, but also with other imbalanced processes in the body that indirectly impact thyroid health, like digestion, stress or blood sugar regulation. For the past year I've also become moderator of the Hashimoto Romania group, with which I organise informative webinars, Q&As or conferences related to thyroid.

I have always had a passion for food and have seen both the positive and negative effects it can have. For years, I did not live a healthy lifestyle and suffered the consequences not just on my weight but also on my energy and my outlook on life. Personal thyroid problems and a family illness took me on a journey to nutritional therapy. I decided to embark on a career in nutrition, not only to teach myself how to eat healthy but also to have a positive effect on my family's life. Putting my learnings into practice has not only meant a stable and healthy weight but has also resulted in increased energy and vitality for life. My true passion is people and the ability to help others make positive and effective changes through food. I provide my clients with achievable, tailored nutrition plans designed to address their specific health conditions and motivate them to achieve their long-term health goals. Not only do I provide realistic, easy to follow, tasty recipes and eating plans, I ensure my clients stay on track and are able to incorporate changes into their lives successfully.

I am trained in the principles of Functional Medicine to identify possible imbalances which may be contributing to a variety of symptoms and health issues. The key is to identify the client's unique needs by considering not only current symptoms, but also the client's health history, genetics and lifestyle. With a special interest in Autoimmunity, Thyroid  and Digestive Health, due to Autoimmune & Thyroid Diseases running in the family, my interest about the connection between what we consume and our health, grew over the years. Continuously learning about the science of food and health and how the two are deeply intertwined benefits not only my own health, but that of my clients as well.  I offer a warm and friendly approach & am committed to helping my clients with an individualized step-by-step health plan tailored to their personal health goals, finances and preferences.

I work one to one with clients to help and empower them to make changes to their diet and lifestyle. I use Nutritional Therapy, in addition to Hypnosis, if desired, to help the client address any limiting beliefs around their ability to succeed as well as helping them to adopt healthy habits and motivation. I help a client get to the root cause of their symptoms by taking an in depth look at their current and past eating habits, their health history, medications, stress levels, sleep and overall lifestyle. I have had my own health issues with Digestion and Autoimmunity and has a particular interest in Digestive Health, Thyroid, Autoimmunity, Brain Health and Weight Loss.
