Jessica is an Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD) who takes a client-centred approach and works collaboratively with a person’s treatment team (health professionals and family members) to help them achieve their health goals. She creates a safe and empathetic environment for people, which encourages them to gradually unpack their nutritional concerns without judgement. The primary therapeutic frameworks that Jessica uses are Health at Every Size (HAES), Intuitive Eating or Non-Dieting principles. Along with such frameworks, Jessica deftly incorporates techniques like mindful eating and motivational interviewing into her practice. Since beginning her career in 2007, Jessica has gained a wide variety of experience across a broad range of clinical settings, including individual nutrition counselling, day programs, group therapy (body image and nutrition education), and program development. Although Jessica is equipped to provide nutrition support to people with a broad range of medical issues, she is particularly passionate about helping people with eating disorders (AN, BN, BED, OSFED, and ARFID), disordered eating (freedom from dieting) and mental health concerns. Jessica has previously been employed at the Body Image Eating Disorders Treatment and Recovery Service (BETRS) and The Melbourne Clinic, where she provided individual and group therapy. Her passion for the latter saw her facilitate groups on a variety of topics: support for parents with children who have an eating disorder; body image; nutrition education; mindful eating; food and mood; cooking and meal support groups. Dedicated to preventing eating disorders, Jessica has also given many interactive talks on dieting and body image to high school students. In 2010, Jessica commenced work in private practice.

The different stages of life carry with them specific nutritional requirements. Jessica’s warm manner enables her to engage and communicate well with children, adolescents, and adults.

Hi there! I’m Alissa, an Accredited Practising Dietitian and Nutritionist born and raised in Perth, with a proud Italian heritage. In my past career, I was a sales assistant by day, and personal trainer and fitness instructor by night! After seven years in these roles, I finally took the plunge to go on to fulfil my longtime dream of becoming a Dietitian. I started my dietetic career in a private practice specialising in all types of diabetes management including Type 1 & Type 2 diabetes, GDM (gestational diabetes), LADA (Latent Autoimmune Diabetes of Adults), and MODY (Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young). I also saw patients with a wide range of other chronic health conditions such as high cholesterol, fatty liver, PCOS, endometriosis, and kidney disease to name a few, as well as weight concerns, people experiencing disordered eating or feeling stuck in the chronic dieting cycle. Having worked in a bariatric surgery clinic, I also have experience in managing post-surgical gastrointestinal symptoms and ensuring optimal nutrition status is achieved and maintained to prevent deficiencies. I also have a strong interest in gut health and IBS management, including the implementation of the low FODMAP diet. Sparked by my past lived experience, I have always dreamt of providing support to people from all walks of life living with an eating disorder (Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder and ARFID). I understand first-hand the importance of working with a team of clinicians who are genuinely compassionate, patient, and well-informed. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space with the understanding that everyone’s journey and story is unique. I strive to work with people to create a plan that is as unique as each individual presentation. I’m grateful to join people on their journey as they work towards improving their overall health through nutrition, healing their relationship with food and breaking up with diet culture. In my spare time, you’ll find me at the beach or eating out at restaurants and cafes (mostly Italian ones!). I am also a fur-mum of 13 years to Cola the cat, who loves to nap with me on Sunday afternoons.

I began my journey as a microbiologist, drawn to the fascinating world of microbial life. From there, I worked as a medical researcher and laboratory manager, focusing on brain development and early neurogenesis. My passion for translating scientific discoveries into tangible real-world benefits often clashed with the medical industry’s focus on cures over prevention. This frustration inspired me to return to university and retrain as an Accredited Practicing Dietitian (APD). Now, I bridge the gap between science and health by working directly with clients to make a meaningful, preventative impact on their wellbeing.
