As outlined on BC Dietitians, Dietitian’s Directory, and Dietitians of Canada, I am experienced providing other therapeutic support services for women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), or ‘women of a certain age’ who are struggling with the symptoms of menopause. I also design therapeutic ketogenic (keto) diets for physical and mental health, as well as design Meal Plans for people with Food Addiction.
III — OTHER THERAPEUTIC SUPPORT SERVICES
I currently offer the following four therapeutic packages.
-
- Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
- Menopause Management Package
- Therapeutic Ketogenic (Keto) Diets (physical and mental health conditions)
- Meal Plans for Food Addiction
i. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) Package – therapeutic support services
The Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) Package is one of the other therapeutic support services that I provide. It is designed for women who want to lower insulin resistance and reduce symptoms associated with the disorder, as well as for weight loss. The services are similar to those offered under the Complete Assessment Package, but for the specific needs of those with PCOS.

ii. Menopause Management Package
The Menopause Management Package is one of the therapeutic support services specifically designed for ‘women of a certain age’ who are struggling with the symptoms of peri-menopause, or menopause. This package addresses weight gain, fat accumulation around the mid-section, muscle loss, insulin resistance and/or prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, as well as other symptoms. The services in this package are similar to those offered under the Comprehensive Dietary Package, but for the specific needs of peri- and menopausal women.

iii. Therapeutic Ketogenic Diets
Ketogenic (Keto) diets are one of the other therapeutic support services that I provide. Nutritional ketosis can be helpful as an adjunct treatment in some mental health disorders, as well as specific physical conditions such as seizure disorder, and for certain types of cancer, such as glioblastoma and gliosarcoma, and some other cancers.
I design 2:1 therapeutic ketogenic diets for conditions such as diabetes (type 1 or type 2) and for mental health conditions under the oversight of people’s psychiatrist or family doctor. All plans are designed from a culturally-sensitive perspective.
I design 3:1 therapeutic ketogenic diets under the oversight of people’s oncologist, neurologist, psychiatrist, or general physician. These are very involved in terms of calculations, and fall under the Customized Nutrition Package. I would be glad to send you the quote for this service.
As much as possible, I also design these specialized diets from a culturally-sensitive perspective.
Please send me a note through the Contact Me form on this web page to learn more.
iv. Meal Plans for Food Addiction – therapeutic support services
One of the other therapeutic support services that I provide is designing Meal Plans for people with food addiction who are already working with other clinicians, or therapy groups for food addiction. These may include individual clinicians or 12-step groups, and include those who avoid sugar and grains due to problematic overeating.
