Why Work with Me?
I have a Bachelor of Health Science (Nutritional Medicine), Cert IV in Training, Associate Diploma in Business and Grad Cert in Tourism Management. I have an abundance of life experience that I share with my clients.
I take my responsibility of your health and wellbeing seriously. I am an active member of Australian Natural Therapists Association and continually update my qualifications through relevant courses to maintain my annual CPD status. I believe in evidence-based protocols and will not provide any fad diets. I enjoy listening to my clients and giving them the space and time to convey their health goals and support them throughout this journey.
Your Responsibility
To get the most out of your time with me, you will need to be open and honest about your current health and lifestyle which may be uncomfortable at times. This is a space of non-judgement to allow you to feel safe in sharing your health concerns and develop your health goals. You will need to turn up on time for your appointments and as much as possible adhere to any nutritional support and dietary recommendations detailed in your treatment plan.
Important Information
It is expected that you are coming to see me to make long term changes to your health, which will take time. It’s important that you commit to working on making changes to your health in order to see results. There are no quick fixes or hacks to achieve good health. What works best is consistency, commitment and understanding for yourself what is going on with your health.
During your time with me you will find that your motivation dips, you start to go back to old behaviours and you feel deflated. This is normal. You can reset and get back on track very easily. It’s important to engage in self-care to help your mindset and ensure the dips don’t dive too low.
Everything provided to you from me is tailored to you for your health goals based on your own health history. It’s not intended to share with others or provide advice to anyone other than you.
Risks
If you feel that the treatments provided are not right for you or if you have any unexpected reactions it’s important to tell me so that I can provide other options. You should not change any prescription medication you are taking. Please advise me of any changes to your health such as pregnancy or planned surgery.
Limitations
Nutritionists are not medical professionals and cannot provide medical advice or conduct medical procedures.
Professional Advice
It is important to get clearance from your doctor or specialist before undertaking any major changes to your diet and lifestyle.
Suitability
The clients I like to work with will be punctual, open and honest (even if it’s uncomfortable) and be willing to try new things. Change is a big factor with achieving positive health results so if you are someone who likes eating the same thing every day and don’t want to change then this is probably not for you.
Success is up to you and how you show up to your appointments and stick to your treatment plan. If you aren’t ready to commit yet, then come back when you’ve decided to change your life.
Unsuitability
I have a vast knowledge of health and nutrition however, you may not be a good fit if you are looking for fertility and pre-natal care.
Limitation of Liability
