Get to the root of your digestive symptoms
and start feeling like
yourself again
When digestion is not working well, it can affect far more than the gut.
Bloating, discomfort, changes in bowel habits, food reactions and fatigue can start to wear you down and make everyday life feel harder than it should.
My work as a Clinical Nutritionist is to help you make sense of these symptoms, look for what may be driving them and support your body with a personalised plan that is realistic, practical and tailored to you.
What makes my approach different is that I do not look at food in isolation. Digestion is closely connected to stress, the nervous system, emotions, lifestyle and the demands of daily life. Counselling or Reiki can also be considered, if this feels right for you.
Who I can support
In clinic, I often work with people experiencing:
- Food sensitivities
- IBS, bloating, wind, constipation, diarrhoea or a combination of these
- SIBO and candida related symptoms
- Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis and diverticulosis
- Reflux and ongoing digestive discomfort
- Fatigue and low energy
- Anxiety and stress
- Adrenal dysfunction and hormonal imbalance
- Elevated cholesterol and high blood pressure
- Skin conditions such as eczema, acne or psoriasis
How we
can work
together
A chance to talk through your health concerns and see whether my approach feels right for you. There’s no obligation, just a conversation to help you decide on your next step.
Before we meet, I will review your completed health questionnaire to gain a better understanding of your health history, current symptoms, diet, lifestyle, medications and supplement use.
During your 60-minute consultation, we will explore your health concerns in more detail and consider the different factors that may be contributing to your symptoms. This helps us identify potential root causes and decide which areas are most important to support first.
Following the consultation, you will receive a personalised treatment strategy with practical and manageable nutrition and lifestyle recommendations. Supplement or testing recommendations may also be included where appropriate.
This consultation provides a clear foundation that can be adapted as your health progresses.
This consultation can be in person or online.
Follow-up consultations are 45-minutes and allow us to review your progress and continue building on your treatment strategy.
Your nutrition, lifestyle and supplement recommendations can be adjusted as your health changes. We can also review any test results, refine your priorities and introduce the next steps at a pace that feels manageable and sustainable.
This consultation can be in person or online.
All prices are in New Zealand dollars and include GST. Functional testing and supplements are additional and will only be recommended where appropriate.
Consultations may be eligible for reimbursement through private health insurance. I am affiliated with Southern Cross, nib and UniMed. Testing or supplements may be recommended where appropriate and will be discussed with you beforehand.
Support like no other
“I first started seeing Hazel around a year ago. At that point in my life, my health had gone extremely downhill – with no help from any doctor. I had extreme gut issues, I was in constant pain, could barely eat, and even water made me feel sick, which led to mood swings and severe fatigue. This carried on for about 2 and a half years – until I met Hazel. Hazel could see what kind of state I was in, sat down and talked over everything with me, and since that day, has offered me nothing but help and support. Hazel was able to assist me with getting the right testing my body needed, helped with diagnoses, intolerances and put together a treatment programme. Her determination and support to get me back on track amazed me.
Today, I feel better than I ever have and this is all thanks to Hazel. Even when I wanted to give up, Hazel pushed and encouraged me to let me know that soon I would feel better. I still have regular catch-ups with Hazel and she is always checking in on me. As I said, her support is like no other and I know if it was not for her, I would not be where I am today. If you are needing help with any issues, I can not recommend her enough.”
