Hello, I’m a Nutritionist and Health Coach based in Perth, Australia, and I’m originally from the UK. I’ve been part of the health and wellness world for over 9 years and have over 6 year’s experience in clinic. My passion is women’s health. I work with women who struggle with hormonal conditions including PCOS, hypothalamic amenorrhoea, irregular cycles, acne, and PMS. I also support women with restrictive and binge eating disorders. I specialise in helping clients truly understand their symptoms and conditions, and primarily work with food, food supplements, lifestyle adjustments and practical strategies to encourage behavioural change. I also recommend and interpret testing, when needed. My aim is to bring your body back into balance, in a way that is sustainable. I am an eating disorder-informed nutritionist, and interweave a balanced approach to eating within my practice with all clients, without compromising on results. You won’t find any strict prescriptive diets when working with me.

I am qualified and registered Naturopath, Medical Herbalist and Nutritionist and Neo-Shamanic Energy Healer. I am founder of Change Naturopathy, and practicing in my private practice and at the Life Centre, Auckland. I emigrated from Yugoslavia to New Zealand in 1997. My life path took me from the carrier in industrial chemistry and environmental science to natural medicine and energy healing. My mission is to share and inspire how to use healing power of nature for balancing all four bodies -physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. I belief that identifying and eliminate underlying cause of the health concern is the crucial for achieving optimal wellness. To assist natural healing process, I recommend and employ combination of nutritional and lifestyle modifications, herbal medicine, nutritional supplements, and energy healing. I am passionate about mental health and supporting and educating clients about stress, anxiety and depression management. I am continuously researching and learning about gut health and gut connection to other body systems. I also have long lasting interest in spirituality and exploring energy healing. I really enjoy supporting people to achieve optimal wellness by balancing body, mind, and spirit, allowing to find again their spark and purpose in life.

Hi and Welcome! I am an Accredited Practicing Dietitian and a Credentialed Eating Disorder Clinician. I also have studied Exercise Sports Science and I’m a qualified Physiotherapist. As you can see from my qualifications I have always had a unique fascination with the human body, what makes it tick and how we can assist it to function optimally. However, there were a few years when I was in my early twenties, that this love and passion for wellbeing became obsessive and disordered. I developed an eating disorder which required hospitalisation. I had a lengthy inpatient admission and then attended the day program and all of the specialist appointments that were required for me to progress in recovery. It took me many years to navigate the rocky path to reach full recovery, but I am very proud to say that I have 100% recovered from my eating disorder. I am now an incredibly happy human who has a fabulous relationship with food and my body. I have extensive experience in working with eating disorder and disordered eating clients; from inpatients to day program and to outpatients – in the private practice setting. I have worked with hundreds if not thousands of woman to help them overcome their eating disorder, regain control of their life and enjoy food again. What I have noticed however is that the traditional model of seeing clients for an initial consultation, then seeing them over subsequent weeks and months for follow up consultations was certainly not the most effective way for the client to achieve their optimal result in the most condensed timeframe possible. There is a huge portion of time between sessions where questions might be thought of, support or guidance required and the need for accountability is high. I have used my own journey, evidence-based practice, and my own clinical experience to create a program and support service which I wish existed when I was going through recovery, I felt very alone and isolated, like no one really got it. I’m here to let you know that I get it, I truly do; and I would love to hold your hand through the journey from fearing food to food freedom.
