Nutrition is one of the most complex and time-sensitive challenges in head and neck cancer care. Treatments involving radiation, surgery, or combined chemoradiation can significantly affect swallowing, saliva production, taste, and the ability to eat normally.
I support clients through mucositis management, radiation-induced dysphagia, taste and texture changes, tube feeding (including NGT, PEG, and PEGJ), the transition back to oral intake after treatment and long term side effects that may appear years down the track.
I work closely with speech pathologists and treating teams to ensure nutrition care is coordinated with swallowing rehabilitation.

Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers — including colorectal/bowel, oesophageal, stomach/gastric, pancreatic, gallbladder, and liver cancers — can often involve significant changes to digestion, absorption, and bowel function.
I have experience supporting clients through bowel resections, gastrectomy, stoma management, dumping syndrome, malabsorption, pancreatic enzyme insufficiency, creon usage, and the nutritional management of bowel changes during and after treatment.

I support clients navigating chemotherapy-related appetite changes and fatigue, treatment-induced menopause and its effects on body composition and bone health, weight and muscle changes during hormone therapy, and the longer-term nutritional picture in survivorship. There's also a significant amount of circulating misinformation around diet and breast cancer — from soy and dairy myths to specific elimination approaches — and helping clients navigate that landscape with clarity and confidence is a meaningful part of the work.

I have experience working with clients through intensive chemotherapy regimens, bone marrow transplantation, neutropenic diet guidance, mucositis and gastrointestinal toxicity, and the extended recovery period post-transplant. I also work with clients navigating premalignant haematological conditions including MGUS and MGRS — conditions that sit at the intersection of haematology and renal health, where nutritional considerations span both renal dietary management and the broader question of what dietary factors may influence inflammatory load and longer-term haematological risk.

I support clients managing appetite suppression, early satiety, fatigue, and the nutritional demands of treatments including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and thoracic surgery. As immunotherapy becomes increasingly central to lung cancer treatment, the emerging evidence around nutrition's role in supporting immune function and treatment response is an area I follow closely and incorporate into practice where the evidence supports it.

I support clients through surgery and recovery, radiation-related bowel changes, chemotherapy side effect management, and the nutritional aspects of hormonal changes associated with treatment. Body composition, bone health, and long-term metabolic health are important considerations in gynaecological cancer survivorship.

I work with clients to preserve muscle mass and functional strength, support bone health through nutrition, manage weight and metabolic risk, and navigate the often confusing landscape of dietary claims around prostate cancer. The evidence in this space is genuinely developing, and I aim to provide guidance that's honest about what we know, what's promising, and what's not yet supported.

I also work regularly with clients across a range of other diagnoses including sarcoma, thyroid cancer, skin cancers, brain tumours, and cancers of unknown primary — as well as people managing rare or complex presentations. If your diagnosis isn't covered above, please reach out.
