Monica graduated from the University of Wollongong with a Masters of Nutrition and Dietetics in 2000, and also holds a Bachelor degree in Exercise Science from the University of NSW. Since graduating she has worked in community health centres, hospitals and private practice both in Australia and overseas.
Monica’s passion is in private practice and helping people achieve their health goals. She is particularly interested in the area of inflammatory arthritis and assisting clients with incorporating anti-inflammatory eating into their lifestyle. She also specialises in mindful eating for weight loss, using the Portfolio diet for cholesterol lowering and implementing the low FODMAP diet to investigate the potential triggers of irritable bowel syndrome.
Monica also offers up-to-date dietary counseling to manage other areas of health such as diabetes, high blood pressure, Coeliac Disease, PCOS, osteoporosis and food allergies.
Outside of work she is busy with three young children, who enjoy swimming, bike riding and learning to cook.
