Weight Loss Approach

Her evidence-based approach combines nutrition, behaviour change, and ongoing support to help patients achieve sustainable weight loss and long-term success. She works with bariatric surgery patients, individuals using GLP-1 medications such as Wegovy and Mounjaro, and those seeking non-surgical weight management, focusing on realistic strategies that improve both weight and overall health.
