What I've found, through twenty years of clinical work and my own experience, is that most food struggles have very little to do with food. They come from misunderstanding how our experience is created — and once you see that clearly, everything changes.

I'm also a former café owner, cooking teacher and the author of several cookbooks — so I genuinely love food, I know how to cook it and I have absolutely no interest in making eating joyless.

My approach isn't about restriction or perfection. It's about understanding and in my experience, understanding is the thing that actually lasts.

I'm based in Sydney and see clients in person and online.

When I’m not working with clients or writing, I’m usually in the kitchen or spending time with my husband, friends and our much-loved dog, Charley.
