Who I help

I work primarily with women in midlife and beyond who want to take a proactive approach to their health.

Many are already exercising and trying to eat well, but find that the strategies that worked earlier in life no longer produce the same results. Changes in muscle mass, body composition and metabolic health often require a more intentional approach to nutrition.

With so much health information — and misinformation — available online, many people are not looking for more advice. They are looking for clarity about what applies to them, along with support and accountability to turn good intentions into lasting habits.

Common goals

People often come for support to:

• stay strong and maintain muscle as they age

• improve metabolic health and feel more energised day to day

• maintain a healthy weight without restrictive dieting

• protect bone density and support long-term health

• develop eating habits that are practical and sustainable

• ensure they’re getting adequate nutrition while using GLP-1 medications

Many of these goals are interconnected.

Supporting muscle, metabolic and bone health in midlife can make a meaningful difference not only in how you feel today, but also in helping to protect your long-term health.

Together we focus on practical, evidence-based nutrition strategies that support strength, energy and healthy ageing.

If this sounds like the kind of support you’re looking for, you’re welcome to book a consultation.

A proactive approach to healthy ageing

  • I went to see Kate because I needed some help with losing weight. I found her to be very knowledgeable, full of practical tips and recipes and very empathetic. She helped me to tweak my diet so it was healthier and more satisfying. She also helped me to get some balance and perspective, which is what I needed. If you’re struggling to lose weight or feeling lethargic or just confused by what actually constitutes good nutrition, then go and see Kate.

  • Kate is a nutritionist well versed in her craft and also a passionate practitioner who I am lucky to have found. Between my first session to the second session, I have increased muscle mass and reduced visceral fat. I have also reduced my metabolic age by three years. I am planning to reduce my three month fasting sugar level from 6.5 to less than 6 without increasing medicine dosage in three months, and also reduce my metabolic age by another three years. Kate is fun to work with and has a pragmatic, strategic approach to nutrition related issues. When I follow her suggestions I see remarkable increase in my energy level, eat more happily and yet reduce weight.

  • I thoroughly enjoyed doing the 12-week personalised weight-loss program with Kate Barnes. I attained a lot of helpful information about nutrition, health and wellbeing. I can honestly say it changed my life for the better and I now eat the right portions and food types for my body. My health has improved, I have more energy and the program changed my perception of food in a positive way. I am grateful for the experience and I would highly recommend Nutrition Coach.

  • I saw Kate because I wanted to reduce my body fat %. She helped me to understand more about food groups and educated me about what to eat and why – the most important part! I managed to reach my goal and feel fantastic. I will be forever grateful to Kate!
