North Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
I am a specialist eating disorders dietitian (APD) and lived experience researcher currently pursuing a Doctor of Philosophy (Translational Health Research) at Western Sydney University. As a dietitian, I am passionate about helping people to address their body image concerns and to support people through the process of finding food freedom, whatever that looks like for them. I work from a non-diet, anti-weight stigma, and trauma-informed approach, striving to provide compassionate, body-inclusive care to all individuals. I hope to work alongside each individual, and guided by their lived experience, empower them to discover what wellbeing means to them. I am also especially interested in working with neurodivergent individuals and people from culturally diverse backgrounds. My drive to help people is what led me to pursue a PhD in the topic of eating disorders. I am dedicated to expanding the knowledge base around what effective, person-centred treatment entails in the eating disorder field because I truly believe that each person is their own treatment expert. Through my research, I aim to help inform advances on our current dietetic ED treatment options by incorporating the lived experience of people who have suffered through an eating disorder.
