Who Am I?

About Me

I’m Mia, your friendly neighbourhood nutritionist, with a deep passion for learning and sharing knowledge! My obsession with all things brain started in my teenage years when my grandfather was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease; I wanted to learn everything I could to understand and help. Even then, I could see the undeniable link between the gut and brain, AND gaps in communication between healthcare practitioners, leaving patients stuck in limbo. The more I learned, the more questions I had. And so, the seed was planted in my mind.

Along the way, food intolerances and allergies became a primary topic in my family and friend circles, and I quickly discovered that I had a knack for recipe creation for all sorts of dietary restrictions - without compromising on taste or quality. However, the constant talk of healthy versus unhealthy and restrictive diets led me down a path of disordered eating. Oh, the mental battle! And so, mental health and nutrition piqued my interest, and back to school I went, becoming the nutritionist you will come to know today.

Shake to combine and… 

I brought that brain curiosity back into the mix and landed on the practice I hold today. I focus in on nutritional counselling for eating disorder recovery and for those struggling with gut and stress-related disorders and diseases. In my practice, I have seen how large of an impact mental health has on our physical body and decided to dedicate additional research and efforts in this department. Moreover, I encourage your participation throughout this entire journey because I firmly believe that we know our bodies more than anyone else - it just takes a little guidance and education to realize its incredible healing potential. So, let's embark together on this adventure of discovery and transformation!
