Frequently Asked Questions

Registered Dietitians (RDs) are regulated health professionals, requiring accreditated undergraduate and post-graduate education, specific intensive practical training and certification via board examination to ensure they protect the safety of the public and use evidence-based practices. RDs are also required to uphold continuing education standards via Quality Assurance Programs - their College standards are high to keep the public safe! Nutritionists are not a regulated profession in Ontario, meaning their education can be variable and/or inadequate, placing the public at significant risk.

Common topics include period pain, irregular periods, and digestive health. I focus on menstrual health, PCOS, endometriosis, and fertility to provide tailored nutrition advice for optimal well-being (without the diet mentality or focus on weight loss!).

I take a unique approach to nutrition care, combining menstrual health education with holistic nourishment recommendations that offer a comprehensive look at how nutrition impacts menstrual health and period concerns. Get ready to learn about cycle tracking, ditching the diet, and collaborating with your health care team to address your needs and goals.

I offer customized nutrition counseling, food and supplement recommendations, and I work collaboratively with your medical team to support your nutrition and health goals.

If you're in a life season that prevents making nutrition changes, don't feel ready to make any lifestyle modifications, or prefer an approach that is rooted in intentional weight loss, we might not be a good fit for each other. And my services don't provide a "quick fix"! You can keep me in mind when you feel ready and able to get started, or would like to explore nutrition care that doesn't focus on your weight.
