Meet Ariana
Gut Health & Eating Disorder Dietitian
I help people ditch diets and live a life where all foods fit. After hearing my clients, friends, family and TikTok constantly talk about ‘food noise’, I have been on a mission to support as many people as possible to practice self compassion through food.
Through professional & lived experience with disordered eating, over exercise & irritable bowel syndrome, I understand how food & eating can feel exhausting.
You deserve to feel free around food & find sustainable health outcomes that don’t include cutting out food groups or going on a diet.
Since launching So Foody Dietetics, I’ve supported hundreds of adults through a non-diet, weight-inclusive approach, to find relief from debilitating IBS symptoms, feel comfortable around food and ditch diets.

Client Reviews
Ariana is a person focused dietitian, who works with you and your body, not just what they think is best. I like her anti-diet approach, as it really helps me as a person with an eating disorder.
She is friendly, caring, understanding and very knowledgeable. I really recommend Ariana to anyone who is trying to find a professional that isn’t just weight-loss and dieting focused.
Izzy - VIC
I felt comfortable from the 1st session with Ariana. It also helped me a lot to know she could relate to my health issues because of her own health journey. She has a happy, bubbly personality- and this is a real plus for people with health issues.
Lesley - VIC
I really appreciate the approach and attitude that Ariana brings to every appointment. From the moment I spoke to her I knew that I was in good hands, and that I would get advice that was tailored to my lifestyle, within my means, without judgement and without guilt. I recommend her services highly.

FAQ
-
The dietetic profession is regulated and meets standards as set by the National Alliance of Self Regulating Health Professions.
Dietitians with the Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD) credential commit to 30+ hours of ongoing professional development annually.
Nutritionists are not regulated in Australia or certified under a single regulatory body. Anyone can call themselves a nutritionist regardless of their qualifications.
-
Not a strict meal plan, no. While it might seem helpful to be told exactly what to eat, rigid plans often fall apart after a week or two—they don’t adapt to real life, personal preferences, or changing routines. Instead, you’ll get flexible, practical guidance tailored to your lifestyle, with tools like checklists or food frameworks that support long-term habits and autonomy.
-
Yes! We practice in-person at Centrehealth Family Clinic on monthly Saturdays. We offer appointments until 6pm on Tuesday, Thursdays & Fridays.
-
A referral is not required, however we do accept NDIS, Eating Plan & Care Plan referrals. We may ask for details of any doctors/specialists involved in your care with your consent, this is because we have a strong multidisciplinary focus at So Foody Dietetics and like to stay up to date with your team.
-
If food feels stressful, confusing, or all-consuming, or if gut symptoms like bloating, constipation, diarrhoea or reflux are affecting your day-to-day life, a dietitian can help. You don’t need a diagnosis or to feel “bad enough” to reach out.
-
Support for fussy eating available for children and teenagers, through NDIS, medicare, and privately.

It depends on your goals. IBS support can be shorter-term, while eating disorder recovery usually involves ongoing support over several months or longer. We’ll talk about what makes sense for you and review it as we go.
