Senior Accredited Practising Dietitian

I’m Lilly, a Senior Accredited Practising Dietitian with more than 20 years of experience helping women feel their best. At GPs on the Terrace in Perth CBD, I work closely with specialist GPs to provide tailored, evidence-based nutrition support through every stage of menopause—whether that’s the preparation stage (30s–40s), peri-menopause (40s–50s), or post-menopause (55 and beyond).

I know this life stage can bring unique challenges, from hot flushes, sleep difficulties and weight changes, to brain fog, bloating, emotional shifts and fatigue. No two women experience menopause in the same way, which is why my approach is highly individualised, compassionate, and non-judgmental. I take the time to listen, understand your experience, and develop a practical plan that supports your health and lifestyle.

For me, menopause is not a disease but a natural transition. With the right strategies, we can ease symptoms, improve daily wellbeing, and lower long-term health risks such as osteoporosis, diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, and dementia. By combining nutrition, lifestyle adjustments, behaviour change tools and ongoing emotional support, I aim to help women navigate this transition with confidence and thrive in the years ahead.
