About Me
Hi! I'm Danika.
I’m an Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD) based in the beautiful Clarence Valley. As an APD, I offer tailored, evidence based support to my patients, to support you in meeting your nutrition goals and improving your health.
I hold a Bachelor of Nutrition and Dietetics from Griffith University (2024) and have worked both in hospitals and now privately, based out of Maclean Medical.
I have experience working with patients of all ages and with a variety of health conditions. I can provide advice and support for a range of nutrition concerns, from general wellbeing to chronic diseases.
I’m passionate about preventative healthcare and believe that good nutrition should be enjoyable, achievable, and collaborative - working with you to achieve your goals, not against you.
My food philosophy is that the best foods are the ones that you actually want to eat, and I love helping my patients work out what those foods might be.
I welcome people of all dietary preferences, lifestyles, values and beliefs.
I look forward to coming on your nutrition journey with you!
I treat all nutrition concerns, including:
General healthy eating
Malnutrition
Food allergies & intolerances
Gastrointestinal disorders (IBS, IBD, stomas)
Improving gut health
Women’s health
Plant based nutrition
Chronic disease management (eg. diabetes, cardiovascular diseases)
Paediatric concerns (eg. fussy eating)
Aged care nutrition
