What do I do?
As a qualified Dietitian and Nutritionist with expert knowledge in polycystic ovarian syndromes (PCOS), Type 2 Diabetes, Fertility and Weight management I am here to help you debunk all of the myths associated with Fad Diets to manage your health journey. You may find it overwhelming at first, many people come to their consults thinking I am there to judge what you put in your mouth, but that is not the case! My approach to this to make you feel confident with what you put in your mouth and help you make the little changes and improvements. I will do this by taking the science behind food and using the most recent research and guidelines to educate and provide a personalised eating plan. Because our health is drastically impacted by our food choices! A lot of individuals are under the belief that all carbs are bad and to stay clear from them. I am here to tell you that there are no rules when it comes to carb intake, I believe with the right portion sizes and managing your carb intake, that this will help achieve better results in your nutrition journey. This is where I come in to help educate and empower YOU to be the happiest and healthiest YOU! I ensure that our consults are about YOU and YOUR goals, this is your health journey and I am here to help support, educate and empower YOU!

This is just the beginning of our business; we have MUCH MORE to develop and I look forward to finding new ways to help you.
How Am I Different?
Throughout my career I have come across many conversations with clients and family who have been on a rollercoaster ride for their health. A main contributor to this being “fad diets” and social media! They had followed information and diets that are not right for them.
This has led me to my strong interest in PCOS, Diabetes (prevention & management), Bariatric surgery and Nutrition Therapy for Fertility (pre & post conception). With private practice and community experience, I have worked with a vast cliental and assisted in transforming their health outcomes. I work WITH YOU by tailoring nutrition information to suit you. By not restricting key foods that are essential for overall health, and not following “gluten free” or “Keto” diets or unheard-of supplements, instead educating and working togethers will result in a happier, healthier YOU.
