Eating Disorder Dieticians
Elle BSc (Hons), MSc, R.D., N.S.
Elle is a specialist dietitian with a deep passion for supporting young people and adults in their recovery from eating disorders and disordered eating. Nutrition is a highly individual and personal topic for everyone and I provide a compassionate, non-judgemental and realistic approach to helping clients to heal their relationship with food and live a life without restriction. Disordered eating is becoming almost normalised in today’s society and nutrition misconceptions and faddy advice circulates us everywhere we look so it is really important to me that I educate my clients on the basics of nutrition to help them navigate through the myths and find a dietary approach that works for them. I encompass an every food fits approach, encouraging clients to remove good and bad food labels and stop demonising foods and food groups.
Growing up in the countryside of Ireland, I have a love for exploring the outdoors and all sports. I also have a masters in applied sports nutrition and can help both recreational and elite level clients enhance their performance through nutritional education. Elle will be hosting talks in schools on Sports nutrition next year and is available for provide consultations.
Rob BSc (Hons), MSc, R.D., N.S.
Rob who is so easy to talk to and an extraordinary clinician with a wealth of experience specifically with eating disorders with people all ages including children and teenagers.
Rob is a specialist eating disorder dietician with a background working for the NHS CAMHS teams, inpatient adolescent units and in pediatrics at a childrens hospital with children as young as 7 with eating disorders.
He is highly qualified with a masters in dietetics, he has also lectured in dietetics and conducted research on various aspects of eating disorders.
More and more boys are presenting with eating disorders and find working with a male clinician helpful so it’s great to have Rob as part of the team.
Liz BA, PGCE, BACP, verified counsellor
I am a qualified counselor and a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists.

I have worked in a local charity for women, schools, Childline and private practice. For me, counseling is a vocation, not a job and I am passionate about making a difference in people’s lives. I am also a mother of 4 now adult children and have been a school teacher for over 15 years.
Pauline den Hoedt - MSc ATPC
Pauline is a Licensed Thrive Programme coach. The Thrive Programme® is a totally fresh approach to achieving lasting happiness, health and overcoming anxiety, depression, phobias and other mental health challenges.
The course takes 8 weeks to complete and it teaches parents and their teenagers how to calmly manage their thoughts, feelings and emotions while going through the roller-coaster teenage years.
At the end of the course your child will have much higher self-esteem & social confidence combined with a love for life. There are weekly interactive and uplifting coaching sessions with homework in the form of videos and a syllabus. It is a team effort where both the child and the parent do the work. I am very passionate about my job and it's a privilege to see families put in the effort and positively change. I have three children aged 20, 18 and 15 so I have had plenty of time to practice my own thriving skills and I am still grateful that I found the Thrive Programme as my family and I are all much better equipped to navigate through the challenges life throws at us.
Watch the video testimonials to see how your child (and you!) can love their life again at www.thethriveprogramme.org.
