My Story
​
I am a Registered Dietitian, practicing in the field of nutrition for over 26 years . With a BSc in Dietetics, I have practiced in Cardiovascular Health and other Chronic Health Conditions; having worked with multidisciplinary teams at VGH Centre for Cardiovascular Health, The North Shore Heart Centre and Outpatient Counselling, supporting clients to make lifestyle changes.
​
Eating a healthy diet, managing and preventing chronic health conditions and living a healthy lifestyle is ever so important. As a Dietitian and taking this approach, what I've learnt is that there is not just one way to help others, just the right way for each individual!
Currently I am supporting clients virtually through Zoom, FaceTime and doing consultations over the phone.
​
Through comprehensive counselling sessions, I can help you develop a personalized wellness plan, designed to help you reach and maintain realistic goals. I often refer to myself as a nutrition cheerleader; a good motivator and eager to get my clients focused in the right direction.
Teaching and incorporating Cognitive Behavior Therapy into my daily practice (based on the "Craving Change Program") is a powerful tool I use to support my clients to change their way of thinking and develop a healthy relationship with food.
​
I am also passionate about supporting you holistically. In my daily practice I recognize the emotional impact of Heart Disease and other chronic health conditions, and easily address and connect clients with the right resources.
​
As a valuable member of your health care team, I am available to see you for nutrition counselling, and at a later date support you in other capacities including group education, grocery store tours and other community learning activities.

Please browse my site a little to learn more about me and my services. Have a read of helpful Nutrition Information for some tips and inspiration and try some of my new Heart Healthy Recipes. Through this time I look forward to connecting and supporting you.
​
Wishing you the very best,
