Many nutritional therapists report a lack of confidence when working with this growing subset of clients — those using, or transitioning off, GLP-1 medications. This session is designed to bridge that gap.

Ruth presents a complex and inspiring real-world case of a client who used a GLP-1 medication for weight loss, with a clear long-term goal of coming off medication and maintaining her progress without pharmacological support.

Together, we’ll explore the consultation journey in depth — including behaviour change, mindset shifts, and the very real challenges of stopping GLP-1 receptor agonists. You’ll gain insight into preventing weight regain, supporting appetite regulation, and guiding sustainable, non-medicated weight loss through dietary, lifestyle, and belief-based change.

At CPD-UK’s Mastering Complex Cases, we go beyond biochemistry to explore the deeper layers of clinical practice — where physiology, psychology, identity, and lived experience intersect. This session will equip you with practical tools to navigate complexity, strengthen client motivation, and deliver truly person-centred care.

You’ll walk away feeling more confident, better equipped, and inspired to support the clients who challenge you the most — because they are often the ones who need us most.

Learn from Ruth, an experienced nutritional therapist, nurse, and clinical supervisor, as she shares this honest and insightful case presentation exploring both the change and the challenges of stepping away from GLP-1 medication.
