DIETITIAN BALLARAT & ONLINE

I can support you with:

  • Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
  • Endometriosis
  • Peri-menopause​
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • High cholesterol
  • Nutrient deficiencies e.g. low iron
  • Gut symptoms (e.g. new Coeliac Disease diagnosis, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, bloating, constipation, diarrhoea)
  • Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS)
  • Support for your health condition alongside other impacts to nutrition including eating disorders, chronic dieting, binge eating, neurodivergence and mental health conditions.
 
Finding nutrition support for health conditions can often be quite the minefield.  There is so much nutrition information available, but when what you come across contradicts the last thing you read or was told, how do you know where to start?  And what if you already have a tricky relationship with food, or don’t want to add to or cause worries about food?

​You don’t have to figure this all out alone.  
Let's work on this together.

How I can help

Working together, we will always explore and work on what you would find most helpful for your specific situation, with some common things explored including:
  • Exploring and unpacking the nutrition information you have come across
  • Uncomplicated nutrition advice to support your health condition, at your pace
  • Nutrition support for your health condition, while prioritising and supporting your relationship with food and your body
  • Support with managing food worries (e.g. feeling like you need to cut foods out, food guilt, restrict/binge cycling, disordered eating) that may have come along with trying to improve your symptoms or manage your health condition
  • Support for health conditions alongside other impacts to your nutrition and relationship with food such as an eating disorder, chronic dieting, binge eating, neurodivergence, or mental health conditions.

Hi, I'm Melissa

I’d love to support you with your health condition and relationship with food and your body – because getting nutrition support for your health condition shouldn’t come at the expense of your relationship with food and your body. 

​You deserve to have your relationship with food and your body prioritised alongside support for your health condition. 

I am weight inclusive and HAES-aligned, which means that rather than weight loss being the focus, instead we can explore ways to support your relationship with food, your body and yourself – just as you are.
