Our Approach

At Beautiful Mind Health, we deeply respect the strength and dedication of parents and carers raising children and young adults with epilepsy, autism, and other forms of neurodivergence.
We understand the vital role caregivers play in the wellbeing of their children, and we are committed to supporting the entire family.
Our care extends beyond the individual, offering personalised nutritional and lifestyle support that nurtures both children and their carers.
Our approach integrates safe, individualised nutrition and lifestyle strategies to help manage epilepsy, support autism spectrum conditions, and promote balance for those with neurodivergent profiles.
We focus on the therapeutic role of food, creating tailored nutrition plans that honour the biological individuality of every child and young person.
As part of our wholistic philosophy, we may also include natural therapies—such as gentle herbal remedies, essential oils, movement, time in nature, mind-body practices, positive social experiences, and animal-assisted therapy—to support emotional and physical wellbeing.
Our Personalised Nutritional Therapy Approach
At Beautiful Mind Health, our Nutritional Therapy for children and young adults with epilepsy, autism, and learning disabilities is grounded in the principles of Functional Medicine. We take a holistic view—considering individual nutrition needs, nutrigenomics, medical and family history, medications, and assessments of digestion, metabolism, and gut health including microbiome.
Tailored Food and Nutrition Plans for Epilepsy, Autism & Learning Disabilities
Using the Functional Medicine framework and advanced lab testing, we develop personalised food and nutrition plans that support children and young people with epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder, and intellectual or learning disabilities. Our goal is to meet each individual’s unique biological needs while supporting parents and carers with practical, evidence-informed recommendations.
The Power of Personalised Nutrition
We believe that balanced, individualised nutrition is key to long-term health. We enjoy creating nourishing recipes and meal plans that reflect the dietary needs of each child or young adult. We focus on making nutrition achievable and enjoyable for the whole family.
Identifying and Addressing Underlying Imbalances
Through thorough screening for nutrient deficiencies, metabolic imbalances, and medication-nutrient interactions, we create customised plans that may include food-based therapies and, where appropriate, gentle herbal or nutritional supplements. Our approach is always food-first, with the aim of supporting optimal brain and body health.

Nutrition Education & Community Engagement
We are appreciative of our partnership with Learning Disability and Autism community organisations to deliver hands-on cooking demonstrations and nutrition talks.
Therapeutic Cooking Workshops enable our clients to engage in preparing healthy meals. Discussion topics include building safe cooking skills, nutritional resilience and preventing everyday health challenges through food and lifestyle.
Multidisciplinary Team Collaboration for Safe and Effective Nutritional Therapy for people with Epilepsy, Autism and Intellectual Disabilities.
We place a huge value on collaboration with the multidisciplinary healthcare team to deliver compassionate and holistic care for families and our community clients.
We integrate nutritional and nutrigenomic assessments and provide recommendations into the existing medical care plan complementing the critical importance of medical diagnosis and treatment in managing epilepsy and autism safely. We have additional professional training in nutrigenomics, which relates to how individual genetic variations affect responses to nutrients and foods and how diet influences gene expression.
We are then able to tailor dietary recommendations based on the unique nutritional genetic makeup of each person for optimal health.
