Experience nutrition support that respects your neurodivergent experience. Our specialised dietetic approach acknowledges the distinctive relationship between brain function, sensory processing, and eating behaviours.
Neurodivergent individuals often experience complex interactions between neurological differences, sensory processing, eating behaviours, and nutritional needs. Our dietetic approach works through multiple pathways to address these factors:
Sensory Integration: Develops strategies for navigating food textures, tastes, and smells that may trigger sensory sensitivities
Nutritional Optimisation: Addresses specific nutrient needs that support neurological function and mitigate symptom intensity
Medication Management: Counters nutritional side effects of psychiatric medications through targeted dietary adjustments
Sensory-Based Food Aversions: Develops strategies for managing texture, taste, and smell sensitivities
Medication Side Effects: Mitigates appetite changes, digestive issues, and metabolic effects of psychiatric medications
Comorbid Digestive Issues: Addresses IBS, food sensitivities, and other GI conditions common in neurodivergent populations
Nutritional Deficiencies: Identifies and corrects gaps in micronutrient intake that may impact neurological function
Our Expert: Evan Waterhouse
Evan Waterhouse is a Clinical Dietitian whose practice sits the intersection of nutrition science, neurodevelopmental differences and autonomic function.
With a diverse background incorporating studies in psychology, philosophy and dietetics, Evan has a deep understanding of how neurodevelopmental differences influence interoception, eating behaviours, and autonomic regulation.
From tailoring sensory-informed nutritional protocols to developing innovative approaches for ARFID in neurodivergent populations, Evan brings exceptional expertise in supporting individuals with ADHD, autism spectrum conditions, and complex eating challenges.
Your Treatment Experience
During your initial consultation, Evan conducts a comprehensive assessment of your nutritional status, eating patterns, sensory preferences, medication regimen, and lifestyle factors. This thorough evaluation allows him to develop a customised nutrition plan addressing your specific neurodivergent profile.
Sessions typically last 50-60 minutes and take place in a sensory-considerate environment. Follow-up appointments focus on practical implementation strategies, adjustments based on your experiences, and gradual progress toward nutritional goals. Many clients report improvements in energy levels, digestive comfort, and food-related anxiety within 2-4 sessions.
For neurodivergent individuals, the path to balanced nutrition often requires a different map. Evan's neurodiversity-affirming approach provides tailored guidance that works with—not against—your neurological differences.
