Online Dietitian Appointments

Find Peace With Food And Your Body, Right Where You Are

  • Dietitian support without the ‘expert’ or stuffy vibe.  You can show up exactly as you are, and I will too.
  • Get support without needing to drive to your nearest capital city or regional town
  • No need to stress about potentially seeing someone you know in the waiting room ​
  • Connect in the comfort and privacy of your home​​
  • ​Online appointments via a secure telehealth platform (and if internet service is patchy where you live, we can connect via phone call)
  • Support for your GP and Psychologist if you are receiving support for an eating disorder and this is a new area of practice for them ​

How we will connect online

You may be wondering about how it all works, and how we will connect for your online dietitian appointment.
  • First, get in touch ​or book online to book your appointment.
  • I will send you an appointment link for us to connect via video call using Doxyme, a secure telehealth platform.  There are no downloads or logins, it's as easy as clicking on the link and getting connected. 
  • I will also send you a link to a secure online intake form.
    This will collect relevant background information including payment information, so we can jump straight in when we meet online.
  • At the time of your appointment, just click the link provided and we can meet online for your session.
  • Your card will be charged following each appointment and your Medicare rebate processed if applicable as well. 
    If you would prefer not to have your payment details on file, I can send payment links following each appointment and include details to process your own Medicare rebate (if applicable) if you prefer as well. 
    Your patient record and payment information is kept secure using Halaxy, a cloud-based practice management system.  It is protected by 256-bit bank-grade security and encryption, the same protection level required by banks.
  • Following your appointment, I will send you a copy of your paid invoice and (if applicable) a copy of your processed Medicare rebate, as well as a link for your next online appointment if you booked one.

How it works

Get in touch
You are welcome to book your first appointment, or get in touch to ask any questions you may have to see if I might be the right dietitian for you.
Your first appointment
This time together is an opportunity for us to start to explore how you are feeling about food and your body.  We will explore your current eating patterns, your past experiences with food and your body, as well as any relevant medical history.  We might get through this information in the first session or it might take a few, depending on how our conversation goes.  We can take our time, and there will be no rush. 
Ongoing support
In our follow up sessions together we will start to explore your relationship with food and your body further, and gently start to experiment with strategies to support you in working towards feeling better as you feel ready to.  Anything we discuss or experiment with will be at your pace.

I acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which I live and work, the Wadawurrung people of the Kulin nation.  I pay my respects to elders past, present and emerging, and extend this to all traditional owners of country throughout Australia.  I recognise that sovereignty was never ceded.

I celebrate, value and include people of all backgrounds, genders, sexualities, cultures, bodies and abilities.
