Description
I am an Accredited Practising Dietitian with a Masters in Counselling and the founder of the successful and award winning Dietitian Counselling Skills Program. I have helped hundreds of dietitians and nutrition coaches learn the counselling and coaching skills they need to run a fulfilling and profitable practice or business filled with satisfied and returning clients who are meeting their health goals. Eating behaviour change is hard and your clients need you to have the skills to not only help them with the “what” of change but also the “how”.

Many dietitians quietly admit to dreading certain client sessions — but it doesn’t have to stay that way. In this episode, Stephanie shares the four main reasons dietitians dread their sessions, from overcompensating when clients don’t change to struggling with boundaries, challenging clients, and the “I know what to do, I just need to do it” consults. You’ll walk away with practical strategies to shift from dread to confidence, so you can enjoy your work and feel proud of the impact you’re making.
