Hello
I'm Charlotte, BANT registered Clinical Nutritionist. Trained in both Biomedicine and Naturopathic Nutrition, I bring together the best of holistic and evidence-based approaches in my nutritional therapy practice. My clinic, Dandelion Natural Health, is available online nationwide or in person near East Grinstead in Lingfield, (Surrey), Forest Row (Sussex) and Oxted (Surrey). I help people take back control of gut health issues such as bloating, flatulence, acid reflux, heartburn, and GORD, alongside related symptoms like poor sleep, skin flare-ups, food cravings, stubborn weight, fatigue, anxiety, and low mood. The gut and brain are deeply connected, so mind and body symptoms often appear together.
My Story
I'm a mum of two teens, a keen forager, and hold enhanced DBS clearance through my school work. I also trained with the Centre For Healing to become a Certified Trauma Informed Coach, to be a safe pair of hands for those with trauma issues, and hold a CACHE Level 2 in Understanding Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs).
I trained with The Academy of Systematic Kinesiology (TASK) in muscle testing, food sensitivity, nutritional deficiencies, lymphatic drainage, emotional regulation work and correction of the ileocecal valve (ICV). ICV dysfunction is commonly linked to bowel disorders like SIBO, where research shows it disrupts the barrier between the small and large intestines, allowing bacterial overgrowth. I’m excited to enhance my practice with these hands-on techniques.
Working long, unsociable hours in TV production in my thirties, I burnt out. I was diagnosed with IBS, insomnia, anxiety/depression, and GORD, alongside long-standing chronic pain due to hypermobility. I know first hand how relentless and overwhelming health symptoms can become.
Before discovering the vital role of nutrition and the importance of supporting and listening to the body’s systems, I felt exhausted and stuck. I chose not to rely on prescriptions and instead worked with a Naturopath and Nutritionist. I couldn’t believe the results. It took time, but healing those chronic health issues changed my life.
When I felt ready to help others, I trained for three years in Biomedicine and Naturopathic Nutrition at the award-winning College of Naturopathic Medicine. Today, those issues are well behind me and I’m on a mission to help others achieve the same.
Together, we’ll uncover the root cause of your symptoms and create a tailored, sustainable plan that goes far beyond calorie counting. With realistic dietary and lifestyle changes, with targeted supplements where needed, we’ll give your body the tools to restore, rebalance, and thrive. At Dandelion Natural Health, this personalised, evidence-based approach helps my clients move from just coping to truly flourishing.
