FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE · PSYCHOLOGY · HEALINGHealth Is Never Just Physical
I work with people who want to go beyond managing symptoms. Drawing on more than fifteen years of clinical experience, I explore how our physiology, experiences and patterns of behaviour influence our health and capacity to heal.
Work With Me
My work brings together functional medicine, nutrition, breathwork and somatic approaches, informed by psychological understanding and trauma-aware practice. Whether you're seeking support with physical health or exploring deeper emotional patterns, the approach is tailored to you rather than a standard protocol.
One-to-One Health & Healing
Individual sessions that look beyond conventional health advice. Depending on your needs, our work may involve functional medicine, nutrition, breathwork, somatic practices and trauma-aware exploration, creating space to work with both physical concerns and the deeper experiences influencing your wellbeing.
Bespoke Private Support
A more immersive, ongoing working relationship for those seeking greater depth, continuity and personalised attention. Combining clinical and integrative approaches, our work can include somatic healing, breathwork, emotional exploration and integration alongside physical health support, with the flexibility to respond to what emerges over time.
My Books
My books reflect a longstanding commitment to bringing LGBTQ+ experiences into conversations about health, identity and wellbeing, drawing on clinical experience, research and lived experience to explore subjects that have too often been overlooked.
The Queer Guide to Nutrition & Lifestyle
An evidence-informed exploration of LGBTQ+ health, identity and wellbeing.
Letting Go of Perfect: A Gay Man’s Guide to Healing from Body Dysmorphia
A personal and clinically informed exploration of body dysmorphia, shame and healing.
My Approach
There is rarely one explanation for why we feel unwell or struggle to change. My approach considers the relationship between physical health, personal experiences and the nervous system, drawing on clinical science, psychological understanding and body-based approaches to healing.
Physiology & Functional Medicine
Evidence-informed nutrition and functional medicine, exploring physical symptoms and the factors influencing health, including digestion, hormones, sleep and lifestyle.
Psychology & Behaviour
Understanding how identity, relationships, past experiences, shame and learned patterns influence the way we think, cope and relate to ourselves.
Somatic Healing & Integration
Breathwork, somatic practices and trauma-aware exploration that work with the body and nervous system, creating space for deeper emotional processing and integration.

About Daniel
I'm Daniel O'Shaughnessy, a nutritionist, Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner, author and breathwork facilitator with more than fifteen years of clinical experience.
My career began in addiction counselling before developing into nutrition and functional medicine. Over time, my work expanded through postgraduate study of trauma, psychedelics and integrative mental health, alongside extensive training in breathwork and somatic approaches.
Today, I bring these different perspectives together in my private practice, exploring the relationship between physical health, the nervous system, personal experiences and the processes through which people heal and change.
Speaking
I speak at conferences, workplaces and events about the relationship between health, psychology, identity and healing. Drawing on clinical experience, research and lived experience, I explore the factors that shape our wellbeing and our capacity to change.
My talks cover subjects including body image, perfectionism, queer health, trauma and the psychology of healing, challenging conventional ideas about wellbeing and encouraging more thoughtful conversations about what it means to be healthy.
