As a certified integrative clinical and performance nutritionist, I bring over two decades of experience across nutrition, movement and lifestyle change, with a deep belief in the power of a whole-person approach. One that holds physical and emotional health alongside the realities of daily life. This is the foundation of how I work: compassionate, grounded, and shaped by evidence-informed practice and lived experience.

Based in Christchurch, I work with women both in person and online, whether you're navigating complex health challenges, fuelling an active life, or somewhere in between. Together we co-create a personalised plan that genuinely supports your body, your goals and your life.

My clinical nutrition work centres on supporting people living in highly sensitive bodies, where nervous system regulation, gut health, hormones and immune function are intricately interconnected. This isn't just my clinical focus, it's deeply personal. Having navigated these conditions myself, I bring both the training and the lived understanding of what it means to exist in a sensitive system, and how profoundly the right support can bolster your body's own resilience.

Hi, I’m Kate

Certified Integrative & Performance Nutritionist Health Coach • Yoga Teacher • Designer

Health and wellbeing have been part of my life since childhood, shaped by a lifelong curiosity for nutrition, movement, and mindful living. But it was moments of experiencing my own health challenges that led me to dive deeper into the wellness industry and pursue clinical training, ultimately to heal myself. A journey that has shaped me and filled me with a sense of purpose. I bring that insight, coupled with evidence-informed practice, to walk alongside others, supporting a whole-body approach to nutrition and lifestyle, and encouraging thoughtful, mindful choices that honour each person’s unique path to wellbeing and performance.

Kate is one of the most grounded and truly caring people I have met in my health journey. It was refreshing to be understood on every level, the guidance I gained has allowed me to understand my body and its vital relationship between food and hormonal stability. Thank you Kate for being true to your craft, your passion and knowledge you shared with me has allowed me to connect back to myself and what my body needs

I saw Kate for some nutritional advice and found her to be very professional, knowledgeable and thorough. At all times she put my needs first and it was clear she has genuine care for her clients. What stood out to me compared to other health professionals was her understanding of the body as a whole system. This holistic approach made me feel very confident about the plan she suggested and I couldn't be happier with the results. Kate's passion, care and expertise are hard to find these days.

Kate has guided and empowered me to make more informed food decisions. She listened to what’s important to me and my lifestyle, suggesting great options to tweak and enhance my diet. Kate's greatest attribute is her ability to listen and understand individual needs, ensuring each suggestion is perfectly tailored to you.

My association with Kate and Bikram Yoga started about 16 years ago just before I turned 50. Yoga provided the perfect balance. I became a regular and with Kate's guidance, encouragement and help I improved immensely. She is an amazing teacher with a wealth of knowledge and has such dedication to all her students. I have tried other yoga but for me the rapport I have with Kate and the structure of Bikram suits me perfectly. Kate is a wonderful person, very creative and an astute business women, but to me her biggest attribute is that she cares!

Kate’s style of teaching challenges us to find the best in ourselves. She is inspiring and approachable and convinced us all that we could only get better and better. Her sense of calm was contagious and the practice became about so much more than posture and flexibility, but making time for myself. Time to be still. Wherever Kate goes, we will follow. Always trying to be better, and grateful for a teacher who believes that we can be.

Kate’s sessions are an absolute delight to be part of. She has the most wonderful personable approach to exercise which is both fun and very informative. Her extensive knowledge in the practice of Bikram yoga along with her background as a fitness trainer ensures I always get the complete work out of the mind, body and soul. I always leave feeling refreshed and energised. Attending her classes has completely revolutionised how I approach my exercise routine to become a stronger and more centred person, physically, emotionally and spiritually.”
