My mission is to support you in finding ways to nourish your body AND your soul, while incorporating all of the foods that bring you joy. I use a warm, weight-inclusive, compassionate, and refreshing approach. If you have lost the joy of eating, are tired of restricting foods (especially the ones you love!), dieting, adhering to ‘food rules’, counting calories, weighing yourself, and doing exercises that you dread, it may be time to try a new and refreshing approach. Covered by many health benefit plans. We also now have a therapist on our team! Collaborative care can go a long way in helping to heal your relationship with food.

You might be someone who feels overwhelmed by nutrition information that wasn’t designed with your culture, body or lived experience in mind. Maybe you’re navigating PCOS, endometriosis, fertility concerns, or hormonal changes. Or you may be active and training regularly, wanting nutrition support that helps you feel strong and energized—without having to give up the foods that bring you joy and belonging. Many of the people I work with have felt unseen, dismissed, or boxed into one-size-fits-all advice that simply doesn’t work in real life.

I work virtually with motivated individuals or couples (in Ontario) who are actively trying to conceive or planning for pregnancy. They seek evidence-based information and personalized guidance to optimize their fertility and prenatal nutrition. With concerns about their current diet, lifestyle choices, or specific medical conditions, they are driven to provide the best start for their future child. They value the role of nutrition in this process and are open to making positive changes. Ultimately, their goal is to create a healthy, nurturing environment for their little one to thrive.

I specialize in working with women from pre-conception, during pregnancy and postpartum.
As a registered dietitian I take an anti-diet approach to support my clients. Growing up as a "picky eater", I was always told how to eat and how much to eat. As I got older, I grew an interest for food and nutrition which led me to become a registered dietitian. Now I support individuals in creating sustainable dietary changes based on their preferences, dietary restrictions and medical history. I believe that embracing cultural foods, enjoying all foods and meeting your nutrition needs can all be done in sync. I specialize in pediatrics, women's health and family nutrition.

Postpartum Nutrition Nutritionists and Dietitians
What is postpartum nutrition?
Postpartum nutrition refers to the dietary practices and consumption of specific foods during the postpartum period, when the mother is recovering from childbirth and breastfeeding. Proper nutrition during this time is essential and can help replenish nutrients lost during childbirth, aid in healing, and ensure an adequate milk supply for the baby. Nutrition professionals specializing in postpartum nutrition can provide personalized consultation, helping new mothers identify the best foods for recovery and breastfeeding. They can also offer practical advice on adjusting eating habits to fit into the new routine of caring for a newborn.

Why is nutrition important during the postpartum period?
A healthy and balanced diet during the postpartum period is essential for both recovery from childbirth and supporting breastfeeding. Consuming a variety of nutrient-rich foods, such as whole grains, lean proteins, fruits, vegetables, and healthy fats, is crucial during this time. Additionally, breastfeeding women burn an extra 300-500 calories per day on average, so it’s important for them to consume enough calories to meet this increased demand. Key nutrients such as iodine, choline, and iron are particularly important during the postpartum period, as they play vital roles in maternal health and infant development. To ensure all nutrient requirements are met, doctors may recommend dietary supplements to help women get enough essential nutrients during the postpartum period.

What foods should I avoid postpartum?
Nutrition experts generally advise women to avoid alcohol, caffeine, and high-sugar foods during the postpartum period. It's also recommended that postpartum mothers avoid foods that may contain high levels of harmful chemicals, such as certain fish like mackerel, swordfish, and tuna, which can contain high mercury levels that may negatively affect a newborn's development if passed through breastmilk. Additionally, foods with strong smells and flavors, such as garlic, are often discouraged as they may cause the baby to reject breastfeeding due to taste preferences.

What diet is best for breastfeeding mothers?
For breastfeeding mothers, a well-rounded and nutritious diet is essential to support both the mother's health and the baby's growth and development. In general, it is recommended that breastfeeding mother's focus on consuming a balanced diet that contains whole grains, vegetables, fruits, healthy fats, and lean protein sources. In particular, ensuring that one is getting enough protein can be critical to ensuring sufficient breast milk supply. Sources of such protein include dairy products, lean meats, eggs, nuts and seeds, and beans. Additionally, certain fish that are low in mercury, like salmon, bluefish, and bass, are particularly beneficial, as they provide omega-3 fatty acids, including docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which supports healthy infant brain development.
