I love helping people to achieve their very best life filled with health and happiness What drives me every day is to help people understand their bodies and to empower them to make the changes needed for optimal health – I’m wholly motivated to continually learn and understand the complexities of what makes us work. As a practitioner I come from a place of deep curiosity and empathy. My health journey has not always been smooth sailing, I have suffered with debilitating gut issues, allergies, thyroid and other hormone problems, deep fatigue and the subsequent brain affects of anxiety, low mood and brain fog. Intuitively I always knew that to get to the core of my issues I would have to take a deep dive into health. I knew that allopathic medicine was great at treating symptoms but not really getting to the root cause, hence I began my journey into nutritional medicine.

Travis has since completed many advanced training programs including Clinical Hypnotherapy, Applied Neuroscience and Neuro Linguistic Programming and now specialises in CPTSD, PTSD, Trauma Informed Practice, ADHD Coaching, OCD, Depression and Anxiety.

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.

The fundamental philosophy for Circle of Health is that all people should have the opportunity to live long, healthy lives. What I have learnt from my studies, life experiences and noticing gaps in the education of young adults aged 20 to 30 years, this business initiative has been developed to empower them to be manage their own health and wellbeing and establish preventative health practices with a commitment to sharing and providing education, information, strategies and motivation to improve their health and food choices to achieve optimal health and wellbeing. Circle of Health offers online consultation sessions to create a comprehensive health assessment and the development of a personalised treatment plan that considers the client's unique needs and supports their overall health and nutrition-related goals. Experiencing ongoing health issues from early childhood and growing up in a rural community on my grandparent's property provided an environment for healthy living, implementing sustainable and ethical practices with the farm to table process and in later life when I moved to the city, discovering the benefits of healthy dietary practices, exercise and lifestyle strategies recommended by Clinical Nutritionists, Dietitians and other holistic health professionals which ultimately led to the decision to study the Bachelor of Health Science (Nutritional and Dietetic Medicine).
