I’m an Irish-trained dietitian now calling Australia home. For me, food represents more than nourishment- it is connection and community shaped by my early experiences in a family of food producers. It sparked my passion for health, and how food shapes it, and set me on a path of endless curiosity about nutrition, health and wellbeing. That curiosity led me to Ulster University, where I graduated with First Class Honours in Dietetics. During my studies, I explored my passion for biology, biochemistry, and clinical nutrition, and my clinical placements gave me hands-on experience across paediatrics, acute wards, and community settings. After graduation, I worked as an acute dietitian across a variety of areas — from nutritional support across the lifespan, and enteral feeding, to swallowing issues, rehabilitation, and chronic disease management. Every day was different – and I loved it! This experience built a strong foundation of clinical skills and experience.
I love helping clients explore their relationship with food in a way that feels safe, supportive, and sustainable. My approach is collaborative, flexible, and grounded in both science and compassion. One motto I live by is focusing on what we can control, rather than what we can’t — it’s amazing how freeing that perspective can be. I’m especially passionate about helping clients navigate complex relationships with food, from sensory sensitivities to chronic conditions and life transitions. My goal is to create a safe and collaborative space where change feels achievable, practical, flexible and not overwhelming.
At Dietwise, I practise using a trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming and harm-minimisation approach. I work from a weight-neutral, Health at Every Size® (HAES-aligned) lens, focusing on optimising nutrition to support all aspects of health rather than rigid weight-centric care. In addition, a central focus of my practice is supporting children, adolescents and adults experiencing picky or fussy eating, and ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder). I take a structured but gentle approach that prioritises felt safety, food preferences, sensory needs, nervous system regulation and autonomy.
I also work with digestive health concerns including IBS (with FODMAP support where appropriate), coeliac disease, reflux, constipation, diarrhoea and food intolerances. My focus is on improving symptoms while maintaining nutritional adequacy and avoiding unnecessary restriction. I support individuals managing metabolic and chronic conditions such as hypercholesterolaemia, MAFLD, hypertension, impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance and Type 2 diabetes. Women’s health is another area of interest, including PCOS, endometriosis, fertility, pregnancy and menopause. I provide evidence-based nutrition support that acknowledges hormonal complexity while remaining sensitive to body image concerns. For clients using GLP-1 weight loss medications, I provide structured nutrition guidance to support adequate protein and micronutrient intake, minimise gastrointestinal side effects and preserve lean muscle mass. I also assist with underweight and malnutrition, iron and other micronutrient deficiencies, oral nutrition supplementation and PEG feeding.
