How online telehealth services work

All consultations are delivered via Cliniko, a secure telehealth platform.

After booking online, you’ll receive an email confirmation with a secure link for your appointment. At your appointment time, simply click the link to join from your computer, tablet or phone.

There is no need to download special software. You’ll just need a quiet space, a stable internet connection, and a camera and microphone.

Telehealth makes diabetes nutrition support more flexible and accessible, whether you live in Melbourne, regional Victoria or elsewhere in Australia.

What to expect at your first telehealth session

Once you book, you’ll receive a confirmation email and a new client form to complete before your first session.

The form helps me understand your medical history, diabetes type, medications, recent blood test results, glucose patterns, food habuts and goals, so we can make the most of our appointment.

During your first appointment, we’ll:

  • Review your medical history, current medications, and any recent test results.

  • Discuss your current eating habits, lifestyle, and challenges.

  • Set clear, realistic goals

  • Create an initial action plan, with practical steps you can start using straight away.

After the session, you’ll receive a summary and resources to help you put your plan into action.
