The approach

I provide a dietitian service that meets your or your child's medical needs, learning style, sensory profile, regulation and lifestyle. When possible I like to be hands on and practical with food and exploring it through sensory play, food preparation, cooking, supermarket visits, pantry clear outs, personalised recipes, food games or eating out together.

What should I expect in my initial nutrition assessment session?

Adults - We will discuss how to make the session work for your brain with any supports required. Main topics covered include your nutrition and life goals, current home, work or study, activities & therapy, medical history, medications, clinical symptoms (including bowels, appetite), food preferences, eating patterns and what you eat on an average weekday and weekend day. Then together we will discuss 1-2 easy wins or changes to work on until the next session that supports your nutrition goals.

Children - In addition to the above we will discuss growth history, current growth (taking height and weight if appropriate), feeding history, parent-child feeding relationship, mealtime routines and behaviours. For ages < 16 years it is recommended for parents to attend the 1st session without the child.
