Online & Christchurch Dietitian

A little bit about me

I was born in Brittany, north west of France.

Since my childhood, I’ve always been into sports and I started athletics (cross country and steeple) at 12. As I was intensifying my running practice for the 10k French championship, I began to experience some health issues and amenorrhea. After a hospital stay, I was directed to a sport dietitian, and it was a revelation. I knew nothing about nutrition at this stage and we changed a lot of things in my diet. My overall health improved, along with my athletic performance. From this moment, I knew I wanted to become a dietitian.

During my first year of practice back in France, I realised that the majority of my patients suffered from digestive issues. So, I delved into the subject and followed the low FODMAP diet training from Monash University. For the record, I did this course and sit the exam during my quarantine when I came back to NZ after a holidays in France !

I’ve never stopped studying nutrition and dietetics. My personal and professional experiences led me to become a dietitian with a high focus on gut disorders, auto-immune diseases (e.g. Hashimoto) and women health.

Today, I help people getting better through diet and lifestyle. I often use functional testing (e.g. SIBO test) and also focus on micronutrition.

How do I work

I am very flexible and I will adapt to your needs.

I understand managing work and family live can be a struggle sometimes. Therefore, I propose early morning and night (up to 9 pm) consultation.

I like using biological (blood test) and functional tests. Tests can be really helpful to identify more precisely the element that can contribute to your symptoms. They also help to personalise the future recommendation I will sugest.

As a Dietitian, food is key. Yet, I also use micronutrition (the use of vitamins, minerals and other components), phytotherapy (medicinal plants and herbs) as needed for better health results.
