ABOUT LEAH
Leah is an Accredited Practicing Dietitian passionate about personalised nutrition and the importance of diet in mental health through all stages of life. She prides herself on providing evidence-based practice and promotes a holistic and compassionate approach in her dietetic care.
After graduating from Griffith University and completing a Bachelor of Nutrition and Dietetics, Leah obtained her Credentialing as an Eating Disorder Clinician (CEDC) and has worked in private practices, inpatient hospital clinic, and community health care clinics.
​
​Leah has a particular interest in mindful and intuitive eating, helping people tune into their hunger and fullness cues, respect their preferences and enjoy food without guilt or restriction. Leah has experience in treating various eating disorders, such as anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, other specified feeding or eating disorder (OSFED), and avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID).
Leah can also help with other eating challenges, such as selective eating ("fussy eating), ADHD associated eating difficulties, and disordered eating (emotional eating, yo-yo dieting, orthorexia). She also assists with gut health issues, such as bloating, constipation, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), reflux and food intolerances, as well as malnutrition, unintended weight loss, chronic disease management (diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and osteoporosis), and correction of nutritional deficiencies. Leah is dedicated to empowering her clients to nourish themselves in a way that supports their health and wellbeing.
Over time Leah has developed a particular interest in the area of mental health and the treatment of eating disorders and disordered eating (including ARFID), eating difficulties associated with ADHD, and body image and weight concerns.
​
Leah is a dedicated advocate of the Health at Every Size® (HAES®) movement and practices from a weight inclusive framework promoting improved health behaviours, body image and self-compassion for all population groups regardless of size. When working with clients she supports eating for well-being and encourages flexible eating based on hunger, satiety, nutritional needs and pleasure.
​
When she isn't at the clinic, Leah enjoys weekends away camping or trips to the local markets to enjoy good food, sunshine and live music.
