Obesity and poor eating habits often affect quality of life. Their management can have very positive physical and mental health benefits, increasing personal value and bringing a sense of wellbeing and belonging in the community.

Motivation for weight management and diet changes is assisted through motivational interviewing, very low calorie diets where appropriate, and professional / patient accountability.

Natalia works closely with the other health professionals at the Wellness House to deliver the best possible outcomes for all clients.
