Louise Grech (APD) 

Louise is a fat-affirming, size inclusive Dietitian, Credentialed Eating Disorder Clinician (CEDC) and Supervisor.

With almost 20 years experience working as a dietitian, she has worked almost exclusively with eating disorders from a size inclusive approach for the last 10 years. Her work is an integration of her dietetic and psychology studies, and is informed by the body liberation movement, neurodiversity affirming movement, social and disability justice, and lived experience.

Louise is committed to cultivating a compassionate and brave space for people of all body sizes, genders, sexualities, disabilities and neurotypes to explore their food and body experience and history in a way that is authentic to them.

Louise sits alongside her clients with empathy and nurturance and understands the impact trauma can have on their recovery pathway. She takes a person centred and de-pathologising approach, and highly values the therapeutic relationship as a conduit to progress.  

Louise acknowledges she benefits from the unearned privileges of her straight-size, skin colour, gender identity, able body, education, and class, and she is committed to her ongoing learning.

Louise is an avid reader and book collector and is well known for her immense love of all things cats. You may also find her out and about in Melbourne drinking coffee, eating sweets and tap dancing.
