Degree-Qualified Nutritionist

ANTA Fully Accredited

Areas of Focus

A clinical nutritionist, not a one-size-fits-all plan

 

Most of my clients are women 40+ who've been told their bloods are "normal" but know something isn't right.

Perimenopause & menopause

Weight that won't shift, 3am wake-ups, energy and mood changes through the hormonal transition.

Metabolic & weight reset

Personalised, blood-chemistry-based nutrition through the Metabolic Balance® method.

GLP-1 transitions

A structured exit strategy to come off GLP-1 medications without rebound weight gain.

W
PCOS

Cycles, cravings and weight that don't respond to general dietary advice.

Insulin resistance

Energy crashes after meals, cravings that feel physical, weight settling around the middle.

Thyroid & fatigue

Persistent tiredness sleep doesn't fix, with bloods you've been told look fine.

How It Works

Working together, wherever you are

Distance changes nothing about the process. The consultation, the blood work, the plan and the follow-up are all designed to work from anywhere in Australia or New Zealand.

1

Your Health Strategy Session, by phone consult

Forty minutes covering your history, what you've already tried, and what's most likely driving your symptoms. You'll leave knowing whether a blood-chemistry approach suits you — with no pressure either way.

2

Blood work at your local collection centre

Sharon provides the pathology referral. Take it to the collection centre near you - results come back to her directly. No travel, no waiting room in another city.

3

A plan built from your own results

More than 30 of your own blood markers, combined with your health history and food preferences, produce a plan written specifically for you and delivered digitally.

4

Ongoing support, online

Follow-up phone consultations as your body responds and the plan adjusts. Clients work with Sharon this way from every state and across New Zealand.

I was referred to Sharon by a friend who had achieved great success with the Metabolic Balance program for Irritable Bowel Syndrome. At the time, I was struggling with inflammation and Alopecia Lichen Planopilaris, a condition where inflamed hair follicles lead to patchy hair loss and permanent scarring of the scalp. I was also under the care of a dermatologist, receiving scalp injections every 12 weeks and using prescribed creams. Since starting the Metabolic Balance program, I lost 10kg, no longer felt bloated, and noticed my scalp inflammation had significantly reduced. My dermatologist was very pleased with the results, and many people commented on how much healthier and better I looked. Now, 22 months later, I still follow the eight Metabolic Balance rules whenever possible. When I feel I need a reset, I return to Phase 2 of my plan, which helps me get everything back under control. Sharon's knowledge is incredible. She explains the process clearly, provides ongoing support, and is always available when you need guidance. I would highly recommend taking the time to chat with Sharon and then committing to the 12-week program. After all, what is 12 weeks out of your life if it leads to a healthier, happier you? Not only can it transform your health, but it also gives you practical skills and habits that you can use for the rest of your life.

I met Sharon at the mindbody exhibition and got introduced to the Metabolic balance program. I have tried a few programs before but this one is cartered to individual's blood results. I was hesitant initially because of the restrictions. But as i got into it, i start to appreciate the foods and the fact that the plan makes me fast and yet I am able to eat a wide variety of delicious and nutrient dense foods. There is a fair amount of preparation involved in meals planning but it has been worthwhile to see results and feel better. Sharon is a committed and dedicated practitioner and also very patient with her clients.

My body & inner health completely changed! I was lucky enough to be a patient of Sharon. When I came to Sharon I was struggling with extremely painful periods / hormonal issues. After going onto metabolic balance not only did I loose weight which was so much inflammation I have also regulated my hormones. Now my periods have completely changed and are manageable with no painkillers. Alongside I have never had as many compliments from friends and family as I have the last 3 months since metabolic balance has become my way of life. I get comments of my skin glowing, that I have lost weight and look so healthy and toned now! Most importantly I feel so much better no more hectic stomach pain, bloating, mind fog, anxiety and painful periods! Plus even though I wasn’t doing this for weight loss I know feel so much more confident in my body!

Had a great experience with Sharon. She’s very available and is a clear communicator as well as realistic and empathetic. The program itself was easy to follow and promoted satiety (fullness). So I was never hungry during the day. Have achieved some great results and made sustainable changes to my lifestyle.

Sharon is extremely knowledgable and an expert in her field. I achieved all the goals I set at the beginning of my journey. Better digestion, energy and regulation of my hormones and am now feeling the healthiest I ever have. I was supported in person and remotely every step of the way. I felt completely comfortable with Sharon to ask silly questions and be open about what was happening with my body. I would recommend Sharon and Metabolic Balance to all!

Sharon explained everything clearly and made me feel completely supported throughout the process. I left feeling informed, motivated, and confident in my next steps. Highly recommend Wnutrition and Sharon for anyone looking for expert guidance and a positive experience and the truly life changing health plan.

Should have done this years ago. Never felt so good. Bloating has completely gone, kilos are dropping at a nice steady pace and my foods are delicious. Sharon is so welcoming, friendly and easy to talk too - she has squashed all my preconceived worries about engaging with a nutritionist. Thank you for changing the way I look at food.Only negative is this gross looking fat prop - but very happy to say that Ive reduced my body fat by 2.5 of these big blobs!

Common questions

Online clinical nutrition FAQ

How does an online consultation actually work?

Consultations run by phone call at a time that suits you, and you'll receive a link beforehand. The session runs exactly as an in-person appointment would - history, discussion, and a clear next step. Nothing in the process depends on being in the same room.

Do I need a GP referral to see Sharon?

No referral is needed. You can join any of the programs from this web site or book a Health Strategy Session directly to start your health journey.

Where do I get my blood work done?

Sharon provides a pathology referral you can take to the specified collection centres in Australia. Results come back to her directly. There's no difference in the analysis regardless of where the sample is taken.

What's the difference between a nutritionist and a dietitian?

Both are qualified nutrition professionals. Dietitians can offer Medicare-rebatable care; clinical nutritionists like Sharon focus on personalised, root-cause nutrition and aren't bound to referral pathways. Read the full comparison →

Is this suitable if I live regionally?

Yes. Everything is delivered online, and pathology collection centres operate right across regional Australia. Clients work with Sharon from every state and from New Zealand.
