I can help! My name is Julie and I have been a Registered Dietitian for over 20 years. In that time I have worked in many areas, including acute care, rehab and mental health. For the past 16 years I have been working at a family health team where I use a Health At Every Size®  (HAES®), weight inclusive approach when counselling patients on their eating habits and food choices. I also have a part-time private practice where I see clients from all over the city as well as the province (and some other provinces as well).

If you choose to work with me, I will help you navigate diet culture so you can begin to heal your relationship with food…and your body. My approach focuses on Intuitive Eating, finding pleasure in movement and cultivating body respect. I will help you tune into your body to eat mindfully, paying attention to taste and listening to your internal cues of hunger and fullness, while eating a balanced diet so you can feel your best, both physically and mentally.

I also have a strong background in gastrointestinal disorders (like IBS, IBD, diverticular disease), diabetes, and cardiovascular health.

 When I’m not out and about, smashing weight stigma and diet culture, I can be found hanging out with my completely adorbs Siamese (who is the opposite of a mindful eater) or using my skills as a Certified Beer Sommelier to help people learn about beer (and food…and beer and food).
