Wholesome Practice

WITH ALYA ALHAMAD

As a Health Coach, I help clients identify dietary and lifestyle changes they can make to gain more energy, reduce stress, to reach their health and wellbeing goals.

Although a healthful diet and adequate exercise are essential for feeling our best, my practice also examines other aspects of an individual’s life that are as important, if not more important, to their health and wellness as the food on their plate.

What makes my practice unique is that I have a breadth of experience and knowledge that allows me to step back and take a larger assessment of a person’s life. I take a multidisciplinary approach, combining nutritional education, with psychological concepts for a mind-body approach to health.

What i specialise in

Gut Health & Hormone Health

I have completed advanced certification in gut-health and hormone-health, which offers me a deeper understanding of the body as a whole. I support clients who have PCOS, digestive issues, thyroid dysfunction and more.

No-Diet Weight Loss

Tired of yo-yo dieting? What if you could lose weight and be healthier without stressing so much about food. This approach emphasizes sustainable lifestyle changes, mindful eating, and prioritises nourishment over deprivation.

Disordered Eating

I help clients achieve food freedom who suffer from restriction-binge cycles, or who have an unhealthy relationship to their body or food. This can have a significant negative impact on one’s physical and mental health or wellbeing.

Personal Development

I help clients achieve greater self-awareness, assess and shift their limiting beliefs, and manage their minds. Clients gain an understanding of their setbacks as well as their potential. They receive a wealth of knowledge related to self-improvement.

Hello and welcome.

Testimonials

"Working with Alya was a transformative experience for me. I did not know what to expect with a holistic health coach, but I knew I needed to make major lifestyle changes. Prior to meeting Alya, I felt overwhelmed by a lot of toxic ideas of health and wellness fed to us by social media. I was looking for a reliable, credible, informed coach to help filter and understand what I needed for myself. Alya has a deep and nuanced understanding of the health ecosystem and was able to guide me to the right resources for me to tackle specific areas of concern.
During our sessions, Alya was able to strike a very beautiful balance between being both open and flexible with how we approached discussions, and strict about creating explicit, intentional time for me to list out my goals, operationalize and define experiences I was going through, and overall, track the progress I was making. I think what was best about working with Alya is that she helped me develop a sense of independence and ownership over my health. Working with Alya is an investment that has lasted beyond the time we spent together, and I am grateful she helped create a foundation of a more sustainable and healthy life for myself."

"I was anxious to start my journey with a health life coach at first. However, observing Alya's Instagram I was extremely drawn to her content and couldn't help but reach out to her. Everything she shared resonated strongly with me and I thought I need to try this out especially as I was at a low point and not really sure what to do next.
This was the best decision I did for myself and really kick started my journey of self-care. Not only is Alya extremely empathetic but the positivity she emits during her sessions and in between is infectious. I now have direction, clarity and an immense number of tools and tips that I can use life-long.
I couldn't hold a book and read and now I cannot stop reading amazing books she recommended to me that have really added value to our sessions. I had lost passion with my career and now I found what I truly need. I am more aware of my needs and now I can say that I feel more like myself and enjoyed every session that I had and looked forward to the next. Those 6 months passed by so fast.
I can't wait to start the next phase of my journey of coaching with Alya. If you feel disconnected, not sure about your food, career, lost, anxious and lacking positivity - Alya is the answer to many more of these issues."

"Alya has been my coach for the past year and a bit, and in this short amount of time, I have managed to change so many aspects of my life for the better, things that I would never thought were possible.
From the start, I have been in awe of Alya's knowledge (which seems to be never-ending), her rainbow way of eating, her positive mindset, her way of being fully present when you talk to her, and my favourite is her savouring posts; it reminds me to look for the beautiful moments around me.
She always gave me the best recommendations on podcasts, books, ted talks, and anything she thought would help me.
Alya's coaching has been such a positive influence on my well-being and perspective; she made it easy for me to understand how to help myself.
If you're considering choosing a health coach, I can confidently say that you won't find anyone as knowledgeable and caring as Alya. Thank you, Alya, for showing me there is so much more to life and for being you."

"Overall fantastic experience. I have been struggling with binge eating and have tried therapy multiple times and multiple nutritionists but no one was able to truly help me achieve food freedom by Alya."

Alya... thank you can't really describe the way I feel towards the efforts you have put in and the support you have provided me over the last 6 months. You have helped me soo much... explaining things, providing perspective, challenging me and really just listening to me. You've given me that extra push I probably needed to be where I am today, and this is a very very good place! A really good place! Like the best place I have ever been in my life. And I feel I have just touched the surface of where I can go."
