Your first consult (around 50 minutes) is all about getting a clear picture of your health and goals. We’ll explore your medical background, diet, symptoms, test results, supplements, and lifestyle so we can build the right foundation for your care.

Some clients may begin working on nutrition strategies straight away, while for others, this first session is more about gathering the full story. Either way, your care will be highly individualised and shaped around your unique needs.

After your appointment, you’ll receive a written summary of key points and next steps—so you can stay present in the conversation and revisit it anytime.

Review appointments are usually scheduled 1–2 weeks after your initial consultation and run for 20–30 minutes.

These sessions are where the real personalisation happens — your dietitian will check in on your progress, any challenges you’ve faced, and what’s working (or not). From there, your plan will be adjusted and refined to suit your lifestyle, symptoms, and goals.

Depending on your needs, review sessions may involve:

• Fine-tuning dietary strategies
• Introducing new steps (e.g. food challenges, symptom tracking)
• Reviewing blood test results or food logs
• Providing extra resources, meal ideas, or education

The aim is to build momentum and make sustainable changes over time — with support that evolves alongside you.

Most people need a minimum of 3–4 appointments to get the most out of their nutrition care. This usually starts with an initial consultation and a review 1–2 weeks later, followed by additional sessions to apply strategies, track progress, and make meaningful long-term changes.

Some conditions — like food chemical or FODMAP challenges, weight concerns, diabetes, or Coeliac disease — often require further reviews to monitor symptoms and adapt the plan over time.

We know from experience (and evidence) that long-term health improvements don’t come from a single information session. Ongoing support leads to better results, fewer relapses, and less need to “start over” later.

We don’t typically provide strict “7-day meal plans” as part of our standard consultations — unless there’s a specific clinical reason to do so.

Instead, you’ll receive personalised food and meal suggestions, tailored to your health needs, preferences, and lifestyle. Our goal is to help you build confidence and flexibility with your eating — not lock you into a rigid plan that’s hard to sustain.

If a detailed, structured meal plan is clinically indicated (e.g. for certain medical conditions), this can be arranged for an additional fee following your initial consultation.

‍

Not always. Your dietitian will work with you to determine the level of dietary change that’s actually needed for your health concern. For some people, this might mean a few simple tweaks. For others, a more structured approach or specific dietary protocol may be recommended.

Whatever the plan, you’ll be given clear guidance, supportive education, and written resources (either printed or emailed) so you can feel confident about what to do and why.

Our goal is to help you make realistic changes that work for both your condition and your lifestyle.
