Client-centred Care
Empathic Support
As a dietitian with 30 years working with people experiencing gut issues and eating disorders, I know it can…
- feel embarrassing talking about your bowel habits
- be challenging admitting how much of your day is spent thinking about food and your body
- be exhausting to keep being told your gut symptoms are just anxiety, or that you just need to lose weight
- be scary having PMOS (formerly PCOS), a gut-health condition like SIBO or IMO, or another chronic health condition and not know how to eat to improve your long-term health outcomes without focusing on weight loss
- feel hard to know where to go next and who to trust when you have already tried so many things, including a low FODMAP diet that hasn't given you relief
You are not imagining any of this.
And you are not out of options.
Welcome to Nourish Not Diet
A compassionate partner as you journey towards better health and relationship with food, eating and your body.
I can help clear the confusion, identify what you need and how you can have more confidence in nourishing your body in a way that suits your individual needs.
With 30 years of experience as a dietitian, including advanced training in gut health conditions like SIBO and IMO, and eating disorder recovery, you are in safe hands.
Here’s how we can work together
SIBO, IMO & Gut Health Support
I investigate, test and help with Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), Intestinal Methane Overgrowth (IMO), IBS, Coeliac disease, Inflammatory Bowel Disease and FODMAP intolerances.
Eating Disorders and Intuitive Eating Counselling
For anyone wanting to be free of eating disorder thoughts and behaviours, and learn to eat with more trust and ease. I work with people experiencing anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, ARFID and disordered eating.
PMOS and Other Health Conditions
For individuals who want supportive, tailored nutrition advice for PMOS, diabetes, heart health, bone health and other chronic health conditions, without being told that weight loss is the answer to everything.
Hello, I’m Alison Stewart
My work has focused on the people who tend to fall through the cracks: those with eating disorders or disordered eating, and those with gut health conditions that haven’t responded to standard approaches.
I offer size-inclusive, weight-neutral care for all identities that puts your wellbeing, not a number on a scale, at the centre of everything we do. I work with clients in person at Hallam and Somerville, serving the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula areas, and via telehealth anywhere in Australia.
My passion is to help my clients find peace with their bodies and food, enabling them to lead fulfilling lives free from the constraints of diet culture and overly restrictive long-term gut-health protocols.
