Hello, I’m Kathleen Cornmell

Registered Nutritionist providing consultations and courses from clinics in Basingstoke and Newbury, and online across the UK and internationally.

My Journey Into Nutrition

I am passionate about helping people understand the root causes of their symptoms and empowering them to take ownership of their health.  My journey into nutritional therapy began with my own health challenges.  I was diagnosed with interstitial cystitis, a chronic and painful bladder condition.  I was told there was no cure and that I would need to manage the condition with medication.  Unwilling to accept that this was my only option,  I began researching nutrition and lifestyle approaches that could support my health.  Within a year, through making changes to my diet and lifestyle, my symptoms disappeared and I have been pain free ever since.

Discovering the Power of Nutrition

This experience completely changed my understanding of health and inspired me to learn more about the powerful role that nutrition can play in supporting the body.  I became fascinated by the idea that many chronic symptoms may have underlying causes that can be addressed through nutrition, lifestyle and personalised health strategies.  This led me to begin formal training in nutritional therapy.

Formal Training

I trained for four years at the College of Naturopathic Medicine in London, where I studied the science of nutrition and how it can support the body in restoring balance and health.  After completing my training, I became a Registered Nutritionist with the British Association for Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine (BANT) and am also registered with the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC).  These professional bodies require ongoing training and ensure high standards of professional practice.

A Personal Motivation

My commitment to understanding the root causes of health conditions deepened when my son developed severe psoriasis, covering around 80% of his body.  Conventional treatment options offered little more than steroid creams, which did not address the underlying cause of the condition.  Using the knowledge I had gained through my training, I developed a personalised nutrition protocol for him. Within six months, his skin cleared completely.  This experience reinforced my belief that understanding the body and addressing underlying causes can have a profound impact on health.

Supporting My Clients Today

Today I work with clients experiencing a wide range of symptoms and health concerns, helping them understand what may be driving their symptoms and supporting them with personalised nutrition and lifestyle strategies.

My goal is always to help clients better understand their bodies and make practical, sustainable changes that support long-term health and wellbeing.
