I also help clients understand their conventional and functional laboratory test results. Treatment plans are based on a client's extensive health history (medical, family, diet, lifestyle, medications, supplements, conventional & functional pathology test results).

Hi my name is Tayla, I am an accredited practicing dietitian who is invested in supporting individuals in working towards their goals in a sustainable and achievable way. It was through my own lived experience that I found a desire to become a dietitian. I value ensuring participants foster positive relationships with food, their body’s and exercise and will work with them every step of the way to achieve this, because I want to help individuals see that finding a positive relationship with food, exercise and their body is possible. I also have a key interest in working with athletic populations (or retired athletes) and working on their relationship with food to support their training. I acknowledge that disordered eating/eating disorders and body image concerns amongst athletic population is prevalent and I want to be there to help prevent as well as support those athletes in their unique journey within their sport. You are welcome to connect with me via email: [email protected] if you'd like to arrange an appointment
