Hello

I'm Maddy, I'm not your average Dietitian.

As a former nurse of 25 years, and a Dietitian of 11+ years, my goal is to provide a safe landing place for those with niche nutrition needs.

Flipside Nutrition was born out of a desire to support those who have been misunderstood, or not found the right Dietitian yet. I pride myself on taking the time to build connection, and explore your unique nutrition story.

My Story

I worked as a Registered Nurse for 25 years, 10 of those as a Dietitian as well.
My own struggles with irritable bowel sydrome (IBS) led me to switch careers and study Dietetics.
My first nutrition blog was That Healthy Girl, started in 2012 as a way to share recipes and myth bust common nutrition issues.
I started my own private practice in 2015 to start supporting people with non-diet nutrition, kids nutrition and IBS.
After a few years and two kids later, I expanded into supporting folks with eating disorders and then later neurodivergence once I saw the intersectionality between the two.
I have lived experience of parenting neurodivergent kids, so working in a neuro-affirming way is really important to me.
During covid I rebranded to Flipside Nutrition to better reflect my services.
I'm a crazy cat and plant lady, and into grandma hobbies like cross stitch and jigsaws.
