Lily has completed her Professional Integrative Nutrition Diploma studies at Rhodes Wellness College and is joining Lilac & Leaf for her practicum. She is also a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor Candidate (RTCc), bringing a holistic perspective to the connection between nutrition, mental health, and overall wellbeing.

Alongside her counselling work, for the last 7 years she has been supporting high-risk and neurodiverse youth with patience, curiosity, and the belief that behaviours often make sense when we take the time to truly understand them and the unmet needs behind them.

Her approach is gentle, practical, and non-restrictive, with a focus on meeting each person where they are. Drawing on her counselling background, she considers nutrition alongside lifestyle, nervous system regulation, and a person’s relationship with food to support realistic and sustainable changes. She believes healing isn't linear; symptoms are the language of the body. Outside of her practice, Lily is endlessly curious, often found learning about something new, getting lost in a book, foraging, or planning her next adventure.
