Specialist nutrition and behavioural support for disordered eating and eating disorders
Are you fed up of food being a battle, a burden or an obstacle to overcome?
Are you fearful of food, mistrustful of your body or just tired and overwhelmed?
Let me help you find a better way forward.
Practical, compassionate support - grounded in real life
Do you dread a buffet lunch, an all-inclusive holiday, Christmas dinner or a meal out with friends, while everyone around you seems to manage without a second thought? Do you struggle to know what you want to eat or whether you’re even hungry at all?
Do you feel out of control around food, eating past the point of fullness, caught in a cycle you desperately want to break? Or do you find yourself compelled to undo a meal afterwards, knowing you want to stop, but feeling unable to do so alone?
Perhaps you’re in recovery, physically stable, the people around you relieved, but everyday life without the eating disorder still feels unmanageable. Or maybe you have no diagnosis at all, just a complicated relationship with food that you’re tired of carrying.
If any of this sounds familiar…
You might have tried other programmes and felt let down. You might be neurodivergent and found that standard approaches don’t fit. Whatever brings you here, all of it is understood and none of it is judged.
You don’t need the right words or a clear idea of what you need. You just need to be ready to take one small step.
Not knowing where to start is exactly where most people begin
Victoria Webb-Hockfield
Victoria is a UK-based, BANT-registered Nutritional Therapy Practitioner with a Diploma in Nutritional Therapy, an MSc in Nutrition and an MA in Health Education and Health Promotion. Her mission is simple: to free clients from the shame, distress and fear that disordered eating brings, and to help them build a healthy, lasting relationship with food and their body.
With extensive specialist training in eating disorders, disordered eating and body image, Victoria also holds additional qualifications in hypnotherapy, NLP, CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, life coaching and counselling. She draws on all of these to provide sessions that are as individual as the people she works with.
Victoria has a particular passion for supporting neurodivergent clients, recognising that traditional approaches often fall short for people who face unique challenges. To deepen her expertise in this area, she has completed a Diploma in Eating Disorders, Disordered Eating and Neurodiversity, and has qualified as an Executive Functioning Coach. She provides bespoke nutritional guidance in manageable steps, and teaches the behavioural and executive functioning skills her clients need to thrive in every situation.
Her approach is practical, compassionate and rooted in real life. Clients quickly pick up a few of her guiding mantras such as 'there's no failure, just learning', 'what is right for me in this moment?', and 'it's not about the food'.
Working together to heal your relationship with food
How It Works
Testimonials
Victoria's advice and support has been invaluable in helping me recover from a lengthy battle with anorexia, I honestly could never have done it without her.
Having had very bad experiences with other programmes, working with Victoria made so much sense to me and was just the right balance of being challenging but supportive.
Although I think disordered eating is something I'll always have to watch out for, I now feel so much better equipped to eat in a healthy and nutritious way that supports my body's needs rather than battling against them.
IM
I am incredibly grateful for Victoria and the help she has given me in overcoming my disordered eating. I really appreciated Victoria's patience, encouragement, and compassionate approach, along with her extensive knowledge and expertise, which made all the difference in my recovery journey, giving me the tools and confidence to make sustainable changes.
I would highly recommend Victoria!

I've found working with Victoria invaluable on my eating disorder journey. She is kind whilst being direct which is an approach I find best suits my personality.
I felt at ease working with Victoria which is essential when you're discussing things that you find embarrassing or are ashamed of.
I had worked with another clinic that wasn't suitable for me so I'm really happy I found Victoria and over the past year or so we have worked weekly together and I'm now in a very different mindset and feeling much happier.
It's 100% an investment worth making - I've always been told "if there's one thing to invest in, it's yourself" and I couldn't agree more – especially now I’m on the other side.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
I'm based in the UK, but I work with clients online, so location isn't a barrier for most people. If you're outside the UK, you're very welcome to get in touch. The one exception is that I'm currently unable to work with clients based in the US or Canada — this is due to insurance restrictions rather than anything I'd choose.
-
No. Many people who seek support experience disordered eating without a clinical diagnosis. If you are struggling with your relationship with food that’s enough of a reason to reach out.
-
Recovery from eating disorders or disordered eating is not a quick process. At a minimum you should expect the process to last three months but this will vary from client to client and the process can take far longer. As your journey progresses our sessions typically become less frequent, moving to every two weeks, then once a month but this is always flexible to meet your needs. Even after you have moved on, my door is always open as I offer one-off accountability and revision sessions to check in and support you in your new life.
-
Yes. I may ask you to sign up to the free Recovery Record app which asks you to log meals, moods and other information about your day and allows me to offer feedback. If this isn’t suitable for you I am also reachable by WhatsApp for any questions or comments you have between sessions.
-
Sessions cost £100 and typically last 50 minutes. These are bookable in monthly blocks. Booking in blocks reduces the amount of administration and allows me to focus on your wellbeing.
-
I do not run a targeted weight loss programme. Some people do lose weight during our time together but the focus is on nourishment not restriction.
-
I understand that life can be busy and unpredictable so all I ask is that you give as much notice as possible of missing a session so that I can free that time up for another client and we will reschedule for a more convenient time. Missing consecutive sessions should be avoided whenever possible though as this may slow your recovery.
-
Everything we discuss is treated with complete confidentiality in line with professional ethical guidelines. I will sometimes ask to share information with other medical professionals involved in your care, such as your GP, psychotherapist or psychiatrist but this is only done with your express permission.
Your personal data is stored according to UK GDPR guidelines and I do not record sessions or use AI transcription.
-
Your safety is top priority. At a low body weight careful medical monitoring is required as part of your recovery process which is not something I can offer. Additionally your ability to listen, remember and learn from our sessions may be adversely impacted. If you are unsure where to go for help but have a BMI lower than 17 then send me a message and I'll help you find the right support.
