Amelia Weddell

Dietitian

Amelia is a passionate and friendly Dietitian, who works with individuals through evidenced based medical nutrition therapy. She empowers her clients with science-backed nutrition principles and evokes motivation for behaviour change to support wellbeing. Amelia has experience working with adolescents and adults in the community to improve their nutritional wellbeing.

Amelia has always had a strong interest in gastrointestinal health, particularly related to the intersection between mental health conditions such as anxiety and eating disorders. Amelia has completed further training with the Queensland Eating Disorder Service (QuEDs) for professional development related to Eating Disorders and the overlap of disordered eating and Disorders of the Gut Brain Interaction (DGBIs, such as IBS, functional constipation and dyspepsia). Amelia uses her thorough understand of the gastrointestinal system + nutrition + the human experience of eating to inform realistic nutrition plans and dietary strategies to provide clients with symptom relief and ease of mind around mealtimes.

She uses trauma informed approaches, neurodiversity affirming care and a holistic view to wellbeing that helps facilitate the best support and outcomes for her clients. Amelia has a weight-neutral approach to dietetics, whereby she believes that health can truly be achieved at any weight or body shape. This position facilitates clients to improve their lifestyle to achieve their health goals whilst supporting a positive relationship with food and feeling comfortable in their own skin.

In her spare time, Amelia enjoys a mix of different activities like playing AFL football, watching reality TV, giving attention to her needy (but adorable) cocker spaniel puppy Billy and trying out new cafes and restaurants to eat with friends.
