AFTER YEARS OF COACHING, WE'VE LEARNT A FEW THINGS...

1. That you are unique and require a unique plan - your body's physiology is more complex than any of us could imagine, and then throw mindset and upbringing into the mix and you realise how unique and special each of us are. We do our best to understand your physiology but also how your food patterns are influenced by your background and current lifestyle.

​

2. Health should not be compromised for performance goals - We've see it done and it's not pretty. When you compromise your health your performance suffers too. Trying to hit the one-percenters when you're not meeting your baseline requirements is like filling up a pool with a teaspoon. 

​

3. A good nutritionist focusses on more than just food - This links with our first point, if we truly believe that your lifestyle impacts your food then we should be monitoring your sleep, training, stress levels etc. For example a lack of sleep will throw out your hunger/fullness hormones and so you're more likely to overeat (especially sugars and fats).

​

4. Over-restricting leads to over-eating - Ever told yourself you're not allowed anymore chocolate? What's the one food that is constantly on your mind? Chocolate! When we aren't allowed something, we just want it more. We believe that we can work together to learn how to incorporate your favourite foods without compromising your goals. 

​

5. Between session communication is essential - Say we catch up weekly and on average you consume 5 meals/snacks per day. There are at least 35 food choices you make, not to mention all the other times you could eat but choose not to. We like to check in with you between our sessions to see how you are going and make any necessary adjustments on the fly. This saves time for the big things in sessions.

Level 1 ISAK Anthropometrist

Suné is a warm and compassionate Accredited Practising Dietitian with a deep passion for helping her clients achieve their goals. 

Suné’s interest in food, nutrition and dietetics began in high school when she was severely under fuelling, which ultimately compromised her performance goals and lead to her developing nutrient deficiencies and ongoing fatigue. This background has helped Suné understand that our food choices are complex and that our mindset plays a key part in our eating patterns. Her values in dietetics are built on treating the clients and their condition in a manner which is evidenced based, holistic, empowering, respectful and collaborative. In working with Suné you can expect to learn just as much about why you eat as what to eat. Suné is the perfect dietitian for anyone struggling with low motivation or emotional eating. 

Suné has a deep passion for helping those with physical or cognitive disabilities and is experienced in working within the NDIS and Medicare system. She is also working through a sign language course so that she can eventually provide 1:1 care without an interpreter. She is also passionate about supporting carers and support workers in their roles as well as taking the time to care for their own nutritional needs.  

​​ 

Suné also has a keen interest in sports nutrition and fitness. Her favourite ways to move her body include going for a run, playing hockey, doing pilates and hitting the gym. Her personal and dietetic background has helped her to understand that nutrition is essential to fuelling for performance and that everyone requires a very personalised approach to meet their specific goals.  

In her spare time she likes to bake, spend time with her loved ones, go on hikes and watch Netflix (and is always open to some good suggestions).  

If you’d like to book in with Suné, she is in the clinic on Fridays and Saturdays and she would love to see you and help you achieve your goals!
