A psychologist-led reflective practice group for professionals working with food, eating behaviour, and mental health.

Food is complicated. The Practice Lab is a twice-monthly reflective practice group for professionals working with food, eating behaviour, and mental health, designed to help you navigate complexity with more clarity, confidence, and clinical skill.

The Practice Lab is intended to support allied health professionals such as dietitians, PTs, nutritionists, nutritional therapists, and early career pracitioner psychologists and counsellors.

The Problem

Working with food is rarely just about food.

You often encounter:

• Resistance and ambivalence

• Confusion and conflicting messages

• Emotional eating and avoidance

• Shame, control, and identity issues

• Clients who 'know what to do' but can’t do it

• Your own biases and assumptions

And over time, this work can feel:

• Slow

• Uncertain

• Emotionally demanding

Most practitioners are trained in what to recommend but far fewer are supported in how to work when things don’t go to plan.

What This Is

The Practice Lab is a structured, psychologist-led environment where you can:

• Think through complex cases

• Deepen your understanding of client behaviour and food theory

• Build confidence in your decision-making

• Develop language and strategies that actually move clients forward

• Understand your role in your client's mind

How It Works

• Two live online sessions per month (60 mins each)

• Includes:

  • A teaching session with Q&A and reflection

  • A guided case discussion

• Small to mid-size group

• Replay available for a limited time

Who It’s For

This space is for professionals who:

• Work with food, nutrition, or eating behaviour

• Encounter emotional or psychological complexity in their clients

• Want to feel more confident navigating resistance, setbacks, and stuckness

What Makes This Different

This isn’t:

• Generic CPD

• Passive learning

• Surface-level advice

I have been working with clients around the psychology and neuroscience of eating for over 15 years. The Practice Lab is designed to provide applied thinking, grounded in psychology theory, and shaped by real client work.

Outcomes

Over time, you’ll develop:

• Clearer clinical thinking

• More confidence in difficult moments

• Improved client progress

• Reduced burnout and second-guessing

• A supportive network of allied professionals

Please note

The Practice Lab is designed for qualified or trainee professionals.
It is a reflective practice and educational space, not a substitute for formal supervision.

The Practice Lab is intended for educational and reflective practice purposes only. It does not constitute clinical supervision, therapy, or individual case management.

Participants remain fully responsible for their own professional practice, clinical decisions, and client outcomes. Attendance does not create a supervisory or therapeutic relationship with the facilitator.

All case material must be fully anonymised. No identifying information about clients may be shared.

Participants are expected to work within their own scope of practice and in accordance with their relevant professional and regulatory standards.

The facilitator reserves the right to guide, limit, or discontinue discussion where appropriate to maintain the integrity and safety of the space.
