I am a university qualified Accredited Practising Dietitian with over 14 years experience in private practice in Melbourne and Perth. I proudly opened Essence of Eating in 2013 to provide quality dietetic services to the community.

I am driven and passionate in helping people escape the world of dieting, food deprivation and guilt. I can show you how to find a pathway forward that involves balance, nourishment and flexibility with the foods that make your body feel good.

I specialise in the management of Irritable Bowel Syndrome, freeing people of the dreaded daily symptoms of abdominal bloating, abdominal pain, altered bowel habits and excessive wind. I am determined to improve the quality of your life by helping you become as close to symptom free as possible!

I have worked with hundreds of people, predominately in a one on one setting, working towards each individual’s goals, big and small. I appreciate and understand that everybody is unique in their own way. Just like there is no ‘one size fits all’ shoe, there is no ‘one size fits all’ dietary approach and a plan needs to be tailored to every individual.

I am also a mum to three young children, so I understand the constant juggle of managing a household, school drops, shopping, meal prepping and cooking for a family of five whilst keeping nutrition as one of my priorities, obviously! I thoroughly enjoy keeping active with my routine early morning walks and strength sessions at the gym. I believe planning and prioritising yourself is pivotal in keeping a balance as well consistency with health and nutrition.
