About Me
I’m Clarissa, a Nutritional Therapist with a background in research science and fitness. I help my clients break free from chronic health struggles and feel strong, energised and confident in their bodies. My approach is rooted in evidence-based nutrition, functional medicine principles and lifestyle optimisation, empowering you with the tools to take charge of your long-term wellbeing.
​
Like many of my clients, I’ve been through my own complex health journey - years of relentless digestive issues (IBS, SIBO), eczema, hormonal imbalances and burnout. I know what it’s like to feel frustrated, unheard and stuck in cycles of symptom management rather than true healing. It was through uncovering the root causes of my own issues that I felt empowered in my choices and finally able to work towards lasting relief. I want to help you do the same.

My Approach
Your body isn’t working against you, it’s asking for support. Health is not just about fixing symptoms; it’s about understanding what’s really driving them. I take a root-cause, whole-body approach, recognising that gut health, stress, sleep, movement and mindset are all deeply interconnected.
​
I work with each client as an individual - there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. Instead of restrictive diets and quick fixes, I focus on long-term solutions that align with your unique needs, preferences, and lifestyle. I integrate science-backed nutrition, functional testing, lifestyle medicine and targeted supplementation to create a personalised, sustainable plan for lasting health.
​
At the same time, I believe that health isn’t just about innovation, it’s about remembering. Much of what supports our wellbeing today has been known for generations. Our bodies thrive when we align with nature: eating real food, resting deeply, rising with light, moving often and living with intention. While science informs my work, I always look to ancestral wisdom and nature’s rhythms to guide the healing process - because what’s most natural is often what’s most effective.
Who I work with
I support clients struggling with chronic digestive issues, diagnosed but unresolved IBS or SIBO, food intolerances, acid reflux, persistent skin conditions, hormone imbalances and energy fluctuations. But I also work with anyone who simply wants to feel better, thrive, and future-proof their health.
​
If you’re ready to stop guessing and start understanding, healing and thriving, I’d love to work with you.
My commitment
A core belief of mine is that life is about learning, and that there is always room to grow and evolve. The fields of nutrition and holistic wellness are especially fluid, with new data constantly emerging that shapes my clinical practice. I regularly deepen my knowledge with Continued Professional Development courses, webinars, mentoring, seminars and conferences, while staying up to date with the latest scientific findings in the literature.
