Body Image Consultant | Educator | Eating Disorder Prevention Specialist
I have been an advocate for inclusive health and fitness for over ten years, and have been running my own gym for more than three. In that time, I have seen firsthand the very real distress that body image distress and a difficult relationship with food and exercise can cause — and I have made it my work to do something about it.
As a body image consultant working across schools, corporate organisations and one-to-one settings, I bring a uniquely grounded, evidence-based approach to this work. My background spans 15 years of nursing in a Dublin teaching hospital, current studies in psychology, and professional training in Health at Every Size and Intuitive Eating. I am also a certified Body Project facilitator — one of the world’s leading evidence-based eating disorder prevention programmes.
This combination means that when I work with your school, your organisation or your team, you are getting someone who understands body image distress not just academically, but clinically, practically and personally.
Why I do this work
Social media, AI-generated images, diet culture and celebrity culture are deeply entrenched in our society. Without the right support and education, they can do real harm — particularly to young people who are still forming their sense of self and their relationship with their bodies.
That’s why I developed Unfiltered — a social media literacy programme for body image designed specifically for young adults, teens and tweens. Unfiltered gives young people the tools to critically engage with the images and messages they encounter every day, building resilience against appearance pressure and buffer from body image distress.
I also volunteer with Supported Families, supporting families affected by eating disorders — because this work doesn’t stop at the classroom or boardroom door.
My approach
Everything I do is rooted in Health at Every Size, Intuitive Eating and evidence-based prevention. I don’t offer quick fixes or surface-level messaging. As a body image consultant I work to create lasting change — in how young people see themselves, in how organisations support their people, and in how we talk about bodies, food and appearance as a society.
