About Catriona McMorris
Hi, I’m Catriona McMorris, a qualified Nutrition and Health Coach based in Tullamore. With a background in the voluntary and community sector, I take a compassionate, down-to-earth approach to supporting clients. I help people make realistic, sustainable changes to improve their energy, health, and overall wellbeing. My coaching blends evidence-based nutrition with practical lifestyle guidance — always tailored to your unique needs and goals.
What course did you study at IINH and when did you graduate?
I completed the Diploma in Nutrition & Health Coaching and graduated in 2022.
Why did you choose to study this course with IINH?
I was drawn to IINH because of its evidence-based content, the blend of nutrition and coaching, and the flexibility of the learning model. I was working full-time during 2018/2019 and living in the Midlands, so being able to access the course online with only the necessary trips to Dublin — or more if I wanted — really suited me.
What did you enjoy most about the course?
The course was practical, engaging, and well-supported. The live tutorials were a highlight — they gave a sense of connection, and it was lovely to meet others on the same journey. The structure made it easy to balance study with work and personal life, while still feeling part of a learning community.
How has your career or lifestyle changed since you graduated?
Since graduating, I’ve started working with clients in a coaching capacity. I’ve also integrated what I learned into my everyday work. It’s incredibly rewarding to support others in making positive changes, especially when they start to see the results for themselves — more energy, better habits, and greater confidence in managing their health.
What advice would you give someone thinking about studying with IINH?
It’s a brilliant organisation to educate yourself — not only to support others, but to begin your own wellness journey too. Whether you’re interested in a short taster or a more in-depth course, there’s something to suit you. The style of delivery worked perfectly for me. I was working full time and living in the Midlands during 2018/2019, and I was able to learn online with only the necessary trips to Dublin — or more, if I wanted. The live tutorials were also really helpful, and it was great to meet others virtually and in person at exam times. It suited me perfectly.
