ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Kelsey understands the importance of creating a non-judgemental space in her dietetic practice, and it is essential that all her clients feel valued, safe, and understood during their time together. She prioritises building a trusting therapeutic relationship that allows collaboration and focuses on nourishing your mind and body in a way that aligns with your own personal values.
Kelsey provides dietetic support from a non-diet approach while her practice is informed by trauma informed, neurodiversity affirming and weight neutral principles.
Kelsey intertwines evidence-based interventions tailored to your unique needs and goals, while closely working with our psychologists here at Lilley Place to align therapeutic modalities. You can expect sessions to strike a blend between nutrition science and human physiology with actionable strategies, tools and behaviour change to empower you to move towards your goals.
Outside of Lilley Place, Kelsey is passionate about movement and her role as a dance teacher and choreographer.
