Frequently Asked Questions

During the 60 minute initial consultation, I thoroughly investigate your health concerns by taking a thorough case history of each system of the body, your medical history, family medical history, diet and lifestyle. I listen to all of your concerns, and answer any questions you have regarding the process.

Depending on your presenting complaint, I may send you for pathology or functional testing in order to gain a better understanding of what’s going on inside your body. The initial consultation is the investigation session, I gather as much information as I can to start putting together the pieces of your health puzzle. I then create a health plan that we discuss in the follow up session, where we will begin to put that plan into action. Each follow up session is to review how you’re going with the plan, how you’re body is responding and whether or not we need to make any adjustments.

No, while I am passionate about supporting women through all stages of life, I work with men and children as well. Health is a family affair, and I believe in providing tailored nutrition and lifestyle support for everyone.

Yes! I offer Telehealth consultations, which means you can work with me no matter where you are in Australia. Whether you're in a major city or a regional area, distance doesn't have to be a barrier to accessing personalised, expert health support.

With online appointments, you can receive the same in-depth, tailored guidance that I offer in person, all from the comfort of your own home. We’ll meet via a secure video call, where we can discuss your health concerns, create a personalized plan, and check in on your progress.

No matter where you are, I’m here to help you prioritise your health and achieve your wellness goals.

If you’re feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or struggling with symptoms like poor digestion, mood changes, fatigue, poor sleep, brain fog, PMS, period abnormalities, acne, nutritional deficiencies, a nutritionist can help. Or if you are just wanting to learn more about how your nutrition can be improved to support your lifestyle. I work with clients who want to understand the underlying causes of their health issues and create a personalised plan to support long-term wellness.

Nutrition is not covered by Medicare, but you may be eligible for a private health insurance rebate if you have the right level of cover. I recommend checking with your health insurer to see if they provide rebates for consultations with a nutritionist.

Yes, I can refer you for testing if it's necessary to better understand your health. My preference is to guide you through getting tests covered by Medicare, which usually involves referring you to your GP for standard tests like blood work, hormone panels, and other relevant screenings. These tests are typically covered by Medicare.

However, some functional tests, such as comprehensive stool analysis, food sensitivity tests, or advanced hormone panels, are not covered by Medicare and will incur an additional cost. If I believe these tests are necessary to gain a deeper understanding of your health, I’ll let you know upfront about the costs involved and the benefits of doing the test.

The goal is to gather the right information to create a personalised health plan that addresses your unique needs, while keeping costs manageable for you. I’ll always make sure you understand the options and work with you to make the best decisions for your health.
