  • want to know how to reduce cravings or bingeing behaviours but aren’t sure where to start
  • are managing a chronic health condition like high blood pressure, high cholesterol or diabetes and want more holistic advice than what you've been given so far

Nutrition Support from an Accredited Practising Dietitian

I offer evidence-based nutrition counselling face to face in Somerville and Hallam, or via telehealth (from the comfort of your own home, office, or anywhere with internet)

When we work together, you can expect that I will:

  • listen to your story because you are not just a 'disease' or a number on a scale
  • review your full medical history and any test results you've already had
  • write to your GP or specialist with a summary of what we're working on
  • liaise with your GP or specialist for any further testing that would help us get a fuller picture
  • provide counselling and nutrition advice in a safe space that is tailored to your specific needs and goals

Other information you’ll want to know

Initial consultation $180*

Review consultation cost will vary between $150 and $180 (depending on the length of the appointment)

You may be eligible for a Medicare rebate with a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan (GPCCMP).

The current Medicare rebate is $63.40.

If you have private health insurance, a receipt for claiming is provided. Please check with your provider for the rebate amount.

I’m also a provider for the NDIS and DVA

Hi, I’m Alison and welcome to Nourish Not Diet.

With 30 years of experience as a dietitian and having listened to thousands of stories, you won’t get a ‘one size fits all’ approach to your health needs.

I take a comprehensive approach to get to the core of what’s going on for you — providing support that addresses the whole picture rather than just the presenting condition.

And my commitment to empathetic, size-inclusive care means that every client feels supported and respected throughout our work together.

Your nutrition counselling questions, answered

PMOS stands for Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome. It’s the updated clinical name for what has historically been called PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome). The name change better reflects the condition’s true nature as a metabolic and endocrine condition, rather than one defined primarily by ovarian cysts. If you’ve previously been diagnosed with PCOS, that diagnosis still applies; we’re just using more accurate terminology now.

Yes. PMOS has significant nutritional and metabolic components, and working with a dietitian can help you understand how food and lifestyle affect your symptoms, hormones and long-term health, without a focus on weight loss. I take a size-inclusive, evidence-based approach to PMOS management.

No, you are welcome to book with me directly.  However, a referral via a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan allows you to claim a Medicare rebate of $63.40 per consultation.

Yes. Telehealth appointments are available to anyone in Australia, on request to suit your schedule.

I will provide you with a receipt so you can claim your rebate directly. Please check with your provider for the rebate amount.

We start by going through your health history, your relationship with food, and what’s brought you here. From there, I’ll have a clearer picture of what kind of support would be most useful, so we can put together some strategies to try that fit your life.

You can get in touch via my contact form or by calling directly. I’ll get back to you to organise a time that suits.
