About This Event

Alison Cowell will lead a workshop on 5 October 2026 designed to deepen counsellors' understanding of how nutrition influences mood and behaviour. The session explores the emotional biology behind eating patterns, with attention to conditions like depression and anxiety. It aims to provide practical insights into how dietary changes affect client wellbeing.

Uncover the (sometimes surprising!) ways nutrition influences mood, focus and behaviour.

Eating Emotion and Empowerment is a workshop designed for counsellors who want to deepen their understanding of how food shapes the emotional landscape of the clients they support. Drawing on two decades of clinical experience, we’ll explore how what we eat influences mood regulation, focus, emotional resilience and behavioural patterns, with particular attention to conditions such as ADHD, depression and anxiety. This isn’t a dry lecture on nutrients; it’s a practical, eye‑opening journey into the emotional biology that counsellors witness every day in their work. You’ll discover why some clients feel calmer, clearer or more grounded after specific dietary changes, and why others struggle despite doing “everything right”. Expect myth‑busting moments, unexpected food lists, and empowering insights that will shift how you think about the role of nutrition in therapeutic outcomes. Whether you’re new to the topic or already curious about the food–mood connection, you’ll leave with a richer understanding of how to integrate nutritional awareness into your practice in a way that is ethical, compassionate and deeply supportive of client wellbeing. If you’re ready to expand your toolkit, elevate your confidence and bring a new dimension of empowerment into your sessions, this workshop will give you the knowledge and clarity to do exactly that.
