What is a clinical nutritionist?

Unlocking the role of a clinical nutritionist

As a Clinical Nutritionist, I combine the latest evidence-based research with a holistic, person-centred approach to support you on your journey, wherever you're starting from. My goal is to empower and inspire you to embrace a plant-based lifestyle that aligns with your unique health goals.

Backed by Science, Guided by Experience

My qualifications are rooted in science and built on real-world application. I hold a Bachelor of Health Science (BSc) in Clinical Nutrition, a comprehensive three-year degree covering key areas such as:

  • Nutritional Biochemistry

  • Human Biology & Physiology

  • Dietary Planning & Weight Management

  • Sports & Clinical Nutrition

  • Nutritional Physiology Research

  • Social Sciences & Public Health Nutrition

Alongside this intensive academic training, I completed 300+ hours of supervised clinical placement, gaining valuable hands-on experience to support clients just like you.

Recognising Qualified Clinical Nutritionists

In Australia, certified clinical nutritionists are recognised as official health practitioners under the Therapeutic Goods Act. That means we’re not just influencers or online course graduates, we’re trained professionals.

Unlike a quick 6-week certificate, personal trainer add-ons, or nutrition advice found on social media, clinical nutritionists undergo rigorous tertiary education to deliver tailored, evidence-based care that supports your long-term health and well-being.

A clinical nutritionist isn't 

  • A holistic health coach 

  • An unqualified Tik Toker

  • A personal trainer with no university degree

  • A self-proclaimed wellness princess

Instead, a clinical nutritionist is 

  • Holds a Bachelor's degree in health science (university qualified)

  • Completed a minimum of 300 hours of supervised clinical placement

  • Registered with an appropriate industry association
