Connected Nourishment was born from an understanding that food and body worries can be complicated and often benefit from a more holistic approach.

I wholeheartedly believe that a care team who are well connected to each other, as well as you, leads to a uniquely supportive environment.

Carly Taylor

she/her – Dietitian & Intuitive Eating Counsellor

Carly’s approach is one that puts her clients at the centre of the work, she loves problem solving, and helping people find what works for them. She believes everyone deserves to get to a place with food and body connection that is more calm, more enjoyable and makes life better. 

Carly has worked in both the public and private health care setting. She has a special interest in supporting people with eating disorder recovery and those who have experienced years of dieting and are wanting a change. Her philosophy with food is that is shouldn’t be complicated… She believes that channelling fun and pleasure into how we treat our bodies is the key to rebuilding a positive connection with ourselves for the rest of our lives.

When she’s not in the clinic, you’ll find Carly in her vegetable garden or watching sport. She tries to get to Melbourne regularly for her art, food, and music fix.

What I value...

These are at the core of all that I do:

Acknowledging everyone as an individual. Celebrating uniqueness.

Helping to create meaningful relationships to yourself and others

Creating a sense of possibility.

Infusing pleasure and happiness in the support I provide and the work I do

Doing what I say I will, consistently and with true meaning

I work really well with others, recognising that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts

Holistic care that nurtures the whole person,
mind and body.

I hope to empower you to recover, rediscover and reconnect
with your food, eating and body
