When Dietitian Support can be Helpful
Food and nutrition can become more difficult when you are dealing with stress, low mood, anxiety, changes in appetite, a difficult relationship with food or the effects of medication.
A dietitian can help you understand what your body needs, bring more structure and confidence to eating, and make practical changes that support both your physical and emotional wellbeing.
Eating Regularly & Consistently
Create a more reliable eating pattern when stress, mood, appetite or a busy life has made regular meals difficult.
Your Relationship With Food
Find a more balanced way of eating when food has become associated with worry, guilt, restriction or rigid rules.
Emotional & Binge Eating
Understand eating patterns and develop practical nutrition strategies alongside psychological support where appropriate.
Appetite Changes
Get support when anxiety, low mood, medication or changes in health are affecting your appetite and food intake.
Energy & Nutritional Adequacy
Make sure your eating pattern is providing the energy and nutrients you need to support everyday health and functioning.
Eating Disorder Recovery
Specialist dietetic input can form part of coordinated care for disordered eating and eating disorders where clinically appropriate.
Medication & Nutrition
Review eating patterns, appetite and nutritional needs where psychiatric or other medication is having an impact.
Physical & Emotional Health
Consider nutrition as part of the wider picture when physical symptoms, health conditions and emotional wellbeing are closely connected.
Our Dietetic Approach
Dietitian support at EmotionMatters is practical, evidence-informed and sensitive to the reasons eating may have become difficult.
We do not look at food in isolation. Your dietitian will consider your current eating pattern, physical health, symptoms, medication, lifestyle and relationship with food, as well as any therapy or psychiatric care you are receiving where relevant.
What happens in a dietitian assessment?
Your first dietitian appointment gives you time to talk through your current eating pattern, appetite, health, symptoms, medication, lifestyle and any concerns you have around food or nutrition.
Your dietitian will also want to understand what you would like help with and, where relevant, how nutrition fits alongside the therapy, psychiatric or medical care you are already receiving.
From there, you will discuss practical recommendations and the level of ongoing dietetic support that may be useful. This could include changes to meal structure, nutritional adequacy, food variety or other aspects of your eating, depending on your individual needs.
Where another type of clinical input would be more appropriate, we will discuss this with you.
