Nutrition Services
WELCOME
Following a significant hiatus from private practice, I have slowly been re-building my services via Telehealth. and offer nutrition consultations Australia-wide.
I am now also offering clinic-based appointments in Hall ACT, on a Friday morning. You can read more about these services here.
If you are contemplating making an appointment, not sure if I can support you, or otherwise are interested to know more about my approach, you may wish to book in a 15-minute complimentary call.
Have a free 15-minute chat to discuss your needs and my services

Frequently Asked Questions
You can either call me ph. 0478 599 770 or book online to make an initial appointment.
Making the appointment will trigger an email that will be sent to you with a request to complete 2 online forms:
- Consent form for Telehealth
- Client registration form
There is an option to securely upload your referral information to the Client Registration form, if your referrer hasn’t sent them directly.
If you wish to talk to me before committing to a paid appointment, you are most welcome to book a Complimentary Call via the online booking portal link provided above.
A Telehealth appointment is a consultation that takes place by phone or video call.
The appointment duration is similar as for a face to face consultation. This gives time to discuss your health concerns and nutrition needs.

Absolutely, I’d be happy to support you if your nutrition concerns and my professional experience are a good match. Each dietitian has their area of experience, know-how and practice, and I may be able to refer you to one of my colleagues if I feel their nutrition interest or approach may better suit you.
While I have a special interest in eating behaviours, diabetes, and mental health, I can cover other nutrition areas including:
- chewing or swallowing difficulties
- undernutrition resulting from long-term health issues
- heart disease and cholesterol concerns
- fatty liver
- nutritional issues related to upper GI surgeries such as laparoscopic fundoplications, partial or total gastrectomies,

I am a DVA provider.
My practice has a cap on the number of DVA clients I see at a time, so please contact me if you are interested in seeing me with a DVA referral / cycle of care.
Sorry, my practice is generally not bulk-billing.
However I understand first hand how health costs can easily add up in situations such as full-time study, chronic illness/disability, and/or other difficult life circumstances.
Some concessions and/or payment plans may be available upon request. Please email me for more information.
