As women we expect a lot of ourselves, and a lot is expected of us. We’re hard-wired to be resilient and roll with the punches and over time our lack of attention to self-love and self-care can make coping with life’s challenges more difficult than it’s ever been. Add kids, work, aging parents, and other stressors into the soup and it’s easy to see how life can become overwhelming.

Have you noticed that one of the biggest challenges you face after WLS is re-establishing a new relationship with your new body and mindset and you may be experiencing new and unfamiliar body changes? It can be hard after WLS to understand why “nothing is working” and weight regain seems inevitable.

I have helped thousands of women, both in clinic and on-line, understand what they should be eating and how to structure their food and fluid intake to help reach their nutrition goals after WLS so they can be the best version of themselves and live the life they desire.

I have developed Bariatric Meal Plans and e-books to share with my clients, so they understand this complex information in a simple and user friendly manner to make their nutrition journey easier after WLS.

I understand what it’s like to be in a busy stage of life. I’d love to help and support you during this retreat and beyond and I look forward to meeting you!

So, I started my journey of self-discovery and I realised that my answers were not in diet books or trying to control my eating, but in Psychology.

I then became a Registered Psychologist and wanted to make a difference and help women who were struggling like me. My core focus has been in the area of eating & weight related issues (over 10 years’ experience), and I help to identify & clear key eating sabotage blocks that are seeing old eating habits on repeat.

Working in a WLS clinic as a key member of the team for over five years I now support women online with the exact same tools. I have thousands and thousands of hours of experience working one on one, helping WLS patients to make peace with food and their body.

The way I work is a little bit different to other Psychologists who may only engage in talk therapy. I use evidence-based re-wiring tools that quickly can change the circuits in your brain to no longer desire food (backed by research) as well clear other sabotage blocks that might be taking you back to your old ways.

I have conducted my own research on my tools and presented this research at a conference to my peers. I am very passionate about helping WLS patients to step into the version of themselves that is thriving and living their best life, as well as stopping any generational patterns being passed down.
