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
