Transform Your Body and Health with our  Holistic Weight Loss Dietitian in Melbourne – you deserve Personalised Support for Lasting Change

Sick of Diets That Don’t Work? It’s Time for a Smarter, More Supportive Way to Lose Weight.


If you’ve tried cutting calories, skipping meals, or pushing through gruelling workout plans— only to end up tired, discouraged, and stuck—you’re not alone. The problem isn’t you. The problem is the outdated advice that ignores how your body actually works— especially if you're in your 30s, perimenopausal, or post menopause, when hormones, metabolism, and stress response all shift.


“Eat less, move more” doesn’t just fail— it can backfire. It disrupts your hormones, damages your gut, slows your metabolism, and leaves you more burnt out than ever. Sustainable weight loss isn’t about punishment or restriction. It’s about reconnection.

When you learn how to listen to your body, meet its unique needs, and create a personalised lifestyle centred on nourishment, balance, and self-care— you begin to feel better and empowered from the inside out.


This is where true transformation happens:
✔ You lose weight with ease without fighting your body and pulling your hair out
✔ You feel calm, clear, and energised as there is no deprivation
✔ You regain confidence and control over your health knowing how to properly self care and nourish yourself
✔ You stop guessing and start living feeling alive, vital, balanced and like yourself.


As an experienced holistic practitioner but also woman who has lived what she is teaching, I can help you get there with a personalised, root-cause approach that integrates nutrition, lifestyle, mindset, and body awareness—so the results last.

If you’re ready to stop cycling through quick fixes and finally make real, lasting progress, let’s work together.
It’s time to feel like yourself again—lighter, stronger, and more in tune than ever.

As an Accredited Practising Dietitian and Psychotherapist who specialises in hormonal imbalances and menopausal weight loss I can help support you with personalised dietary, emotional and lifestyle advice to address your unique needs, especially if you...

Are over 30 and...

And have noticed things don't work the same way. You may have more stress than usual, may be married and maybe even had some kids along the way and your body is just not bouncing back or responding in the same way

Are in perimenopause or menopause and...

Are struggling with hormonal imbalances, PCOS, Hypothyroidism, hot flashes, fogginess, moodiness and that damn pesky belly and hips fat.

Have tried the lot & nothing works anymore...

If things that have worked before no longer do, its time to come in for a service... your engine may be overheating and its time for a new approach.

Are Wonder Woman there for everyone, but not yourself

If you are finding yourself stretched out, overworked, overwhelmed, stressed and close to losing it, it's time to learn how to prioritise yourself and apply some well needed self care balm.

Your Personalised Weight Loss Journey Starts Here – Designed for Real Women, Real Lives, and Real Results

Initial Holistic Health & Weight Assessment
This isn’t a generic plan or a one-size-fits-all diet. Your first session is a 90-minute deep-dive into your full health picture—designed to uncover the root causes behind your weight struggles, fatigue, and imbalances. Together, we explore how your hormones, digestion, stress levels, sleep, emotional health, and daily habits are influencing your metabolism and energy. You’ll leave with clarity on what’s driving your symptoms—and a tailored, practical roadmap to begin transforming your health from the inside out.


Personalised Nutrition Plan & Lifestyle Strategy
Based on your unique body, goals, and lifestyle, you’ll receive a personalised nutrition and lifestyle plan—not just what to eat, but how, when, and why. You'll learn how to eat in a way that supports fat loss, hormonal balance, and energy, without giving up joy, flexibility, or your favourite foods. You'll be empowered to make quick, healthy meals, shop smarter, dine out confidently, and stay consistent even when life gets busy. This is real-life nourishment that works.


Coaching, Education & Mind-Body Support for Lasting Change
This journey is about more than weight loss—it’s about reclaiming your confidence, self-trust, and vitality. You’ll be guided every step of the way with professional support that includes emotional coaching, mindset tools, nervous system regulation, and ongoing education. We’ll help you overcome emotional eating, reduce overwhelm, and stay motivated—so you don’t just lose weight, you become the empowered woman you’re meant to be.

What my weight loss clients feel

Anca’s weight loss advice has lead to me overall feeling better.  Not only  did I lose 8kgs of fat but my back, knee and finger joints no longer hurt due to my clean diet, I am sleeping better and am feeling so much better within myself.  I am over 50 and my body feels great.  I would highly recommend Anca as a weight loss dietitian to anyone looking for a holistic approach to great health

Denise

From day ONE Anca amazed me with her knowledge, passion and genuine care to help me reach my goals. This incredibly intelligent woman provides more than just a meal plan. She has provided me with education, counselling, referrals to top quality professionals, high quality supplements and products, a shoulder to cry on and the bare truth when I needed to hear it. She has shown me just how important nutrition is for every aspect of my well being and how resilient the human body can be once equipped with the right tools. If you are scrolling through reviews looking to make not only a change, but the right changes, Anca is the person you are looking for.

Lacey

After being extremely unsatisfied with the amount of weight that I put on during the time of my two pregnancies and after, felt that I needed to do something. After a bit of googling, I discovered Anca's website and from the information that I saw I wanted to book an appointment. I found her assessment of me very thorough. Her approach is very holistic. I have numerous health issues which she also addressed. The changes she recommended were easy to do and did not make me feel like I was missing out and depressed. I never knew that I could lose weight and not feel hungry, tired, depressed, crave junk food, and lack energy. I can maintain this plan as it is for quality of life and not just for a quick weight for weight loss. I have not put on any of the weight that I lost last year. I highly recommend seeing Anca.

    There is no one-size-fits-all menopausal diet, but a hormone-supportive approach includes plenty of vegetables, protein, healthy fats, slow-release carbs and fibre. Reducing sugar, processed foods and inflammatory triggers is key. It’s also important to eat regularly, not skip meals, and avoid extreme calorie cutting.
