As a dietitian, I take an evidence-based and holistic approach when working with clients, considering all aspects of health, both physical and mental, when finding accessible solutions.

​

I struggled with my relationship with food as a teenager. Over time and with an increasingly challenging relationship with food and exercise, conditions slowly appeared including IBS, amennhorea, low hormone levels and low bone density. I sought help from a number of health professionals, but the solutions they suggested were just a band-aid fixes.

In the 5 years that I worked to regain my period and my health, not a single health professional identified the underlying cause of my symptoms: the eating disorder. Instead all came back as 'normal' and I was repeatedly told that my hormones were 'just not working properly'. 
 
Sick of going back and forth to appointments that didn't seem to be making any progress, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I took a deep dive into some research reached the heavy and humbling realisation that my own eating habits were the cause of my symptoms. After around 6 months of regaining weight, fixing my iron deficiency, challenging my relationship with food and learning to rest my nervous system, I regained my period and my energy! I only wished that my eating disorder was diagnosed earlier and that I had been given the appropriate support.
 
I understand how easy it can be to develop a 'fear of food,' particularly when navigating other health conditions such as food allergies, intolerances, autoimmunity and IBS.

Food can be overwhelming, and that is why I love working with clients to improve their relationship with food and learn how to nourish their bodies in a way that feels safe and that suits their personal needs.
