What is Dietetics?

Dietitians are allied health professionals who are experts in food and nutrition and provide guidance to people with a range of health conditions to manage their diet and nutrition.  

We are able to support individuals of all ages who present with a broad spectrum of disabilities including anxiety, depression, personality disorders, psychosis, schizophrenia, bi-polar, ASD, ABI, CF, stroke and more.  

To address food and nutrition concerns, dietitians might:

  • Conduct an initial assessment and develop a tailored plan to understand a person’s nutritional health and assess their specific nutritional needs. 
  • Design a tailored nutritional intervention plan to align with a participant’s personal nutrition goals.  
  • Provide tailored nutrition counselling and ongoing care to achieve desired nutrition outcomes. 

Our experienced dietitians are able to provide evidenced-based therapy due to their extensive training and qualifications, wide range of experiences, and our internal professional development program. For more specific information about our dietitians’ individual experience and areas of expertise, you can view  Our Expertise. 

Dietitians frequently work closely with other allied health professionals to provide complementary services to achieve a participant’s goals.
