DIETITIAN

Tatiana is an experienced Accredited Practising Dietitian who highly values eating nutritious foods and living a healthy balanced lifestyle. Tatiana recognises that everyone is different and unique. Thus, her approach is to tailor her consultation to suit each individual’s needs, empowering clients to understand the importance of nutrition and overcome their challenges by implementing practical skills to manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.

Tatiana has had several years of experience in the area of weight loss working with children and adults to establish eating habits to reach a healthy body weight. She is well aware that healthy eating and choices may at times be confusing, complicated and controversial. There is an abundance of contradictory health messages and super restrictive diets that allows food to control the way we are. Therefore, Tatiana’s approach to weight loss is all about balance and reconnecting food with your body, mind and soul. With practical tips, meal ideas and smart swaps, Tatiana will get you on the right path for your sustainable weight loss journey.

Other areas of Tatiana’s expertise include chronic disease management including diabetes and cardiovascular disease, women’s health and gut health in particular IBS. Tatiana has become an expert in translating science-based principles into practical advice that can be used to guide one’s health and diet.

As a creative person, Tatiana spends most of her free time in the kitchen cooking delicious meals and developing educational resources that she utilises during her consultations. Tatiana maintains a great work life balance, rejuvenating herself with Pilates, playing tennis, going out for long walks and spending time with her family and friends.

Tatiana is available at Hunters Hill Medical Practice weekly on Mondays and Tuesdays between 1pm and 7pm. Also on Fridays between 9am and 1pm.
