Welcome to Embody Health

I’m Leigh and I passionately believe in the power of nutrition to support our mental and physical health.

I have a background in Nursing, specialising in acute Mental Health, Drug/Alcohol Detox & Addictions. Over the last 10 years I have completed study in Nutrition, Health Coaching, Hormones + Gut Health + Microbiome Lab Testing, Psych-K + Muscle Testing, and counselling/psychotherapy modalities MI, SFBT & IFS.

I have special interests in helping people who are looking for support with Mental Health & Wellbeing challenges (Stress, Anxiety & Depression), plus those who feel they may have a Nutritional or Hormone Imbalance. I also work with pre & Type 2 diabetes.

I’m here to support your journey towards greater mental health, balance & wellbeing through Clinical Nutrition & Health Coaching.


Discover the root cause

 

I invite you to step forward on a journey of discovery to find the root cause of what is causing your symptoms and your life to be less than you want it to be.

When there are imbalances in your body physically and emotionally it will present you with what may seem like a random list of ailments … however with a bit of detective work we can pinpoint these imbalances and create a roadmap to help support your journey back to wellness.

Once we understand the root cause together we will design a protocol for you utilising real food, supplements, lifestyle interventions and health coaching/therapies, all designed to bring your body and mind back into balance, resulting in better health, peace, freedom and happiness.


My approach

 

I work with clients both in-person or online. I use a combination of full health history questionnaires, consultation, food journal, symptom analysis and lab testing to understand where your physical, emotional and nutritional imbalances are.

My protocols designed to support the body’s innate ability to heal both mentally & physically.

I am happy to work alongside any other practitioners you are currently working with.

Are you ready to walk towards a more healthy, vibrant life?

“From the very first moments in working with Leigh, I felt at ease. Her calming and present nature created a very safe environment for me to share my struggles. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Disease last summer, and Leigh was a knowledgeable resource for me as I navigated changes to my eating habits. She also helped make some great connections to my lack of satiety and offered healthy suggestions to curb my pesky late afternoon cravings, which were inhibiting my weight loss. I highly recommend Leigh to anyone looking to make changes to their lifestyle to live a healthier life. She's an elegant cheerleader and wonderful Health Coach!”
