Emilie Burgess - Hobart

Hi, I’m Emilie. I’m a sports dietitian, but more specifically, I’m a non-diet dietitian specialising in the disordered eating spectrum and fertility/pregnancy nutrition. I also love food (LOVE) and am passionate about supporting others to find their own sense of happiness around food in a society that sends so many mixed and messed-up messages. Diet culture BE GONE!

After some glorious adventures living interstate and overseas, I now count myself lucky to call Hobart/nipaluna home. Raising a young family in this beautiful piece of paradise tucked under Mt Wellington/kunanyi feels like the perfect fit. I enjoy keeping active in ways that fit with the juggle of life and provide opportunities to explore our incredible natural surrounds, photo and snack stops definitely included! It would also be remiss of me to not mentioned the thriving food scene and endless paddock to plate stories to connect with in Tasmania/lutruwita

From a professional perspective, I have been incredibly fortunate with the people I have met and worked with and the incredible adventures I’ve had along the way. Travelling to Delhi for the 2010 Commonwealth Games is a hard one to top. Wow, what an experience! My work is centered mostly in the sports setting (recreational through to elite), with a particular focus on eating disorders and fertility/pregnancy. I’m a non-diet and trauma-informed dietitian, striving to provide an inclusive practice for all (thoughtful feedback always welcomed).

I’ve been translating nutrition science to practical food-based discussions for over 10 years, enjoying working with people to empower them to rediscover their confidence in feeding themselves, eating socially and flexibly. I completed a Bachelor of Science at the University of Sydney in 2007, completing an honours year in Clinical Dietetics. I have since completed a Diploma Sports Nutrition through the International Olympic Committee. Further training in the supportive treatment of eating disorders and as a pre-natal dietitian brings me to my current practice. Education and professional growth in these areas will continue to guide my practice.
