Dietitian support for complex gut health and disordered eating, online across the UAE.
Most people who find their way here have already spent a long time trying to figure things out on their own.
They’ve read the advice, followed the rules, tried cutting things out or adding things in, and still find that eating takes up more space than it should. Or that their body is sending signals they don’t know how to interpret.
This practice exists for the gap between knowing what to do and actually being able to do it. Between having symptoms and having an explanation for them. Between eating and everything eating is tangled up with.
Meet Annaleise
I’m a dietitian specialising in eating disorders, disordered eating, and complex gut health. I work with adults who are trying to find a way to eating that doesn’t feel like a constant negotiation, with food, with their body, with their symptoms, or with themselves.
I spent seven years in hospital clinical practice across gastroenterology and mental health, which is where I learned how closely the gut and our relationship with food are tied together. I consider the whole picture: your physiology, your history, and the reality of what it’s actually like to be in your body day to day.
I’m based in Dubai and work with clients online. I’m an Australian Accredited Practising Dietitian and hold the ANZAED Credentialed Eating Disorder Dietitian designation, the specialist credential for eating disorder clinicians in Australia and New Zealand.
When you’re ready, I’m here.
Specialist Areas
Eating Disorders
Eating disorders ask a lot of the people living with them. I work with adults across the full spectrum of presentations: anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, ARFID, and other specified feeding or eating disorders (OSFED). Dietetic support is a core part of treatment, and if you’re already working with a therapist or doctor, I’ll work alongside them.
Disordered Eating
Not every difficult relationship with food meets a clinical threshold, and that doesn’t make it less real. If eating is governed by rules, guilt, or a persistent sense of doing it wrong, that’s worth taking seriously. Together we work out what’s driving it and build a way of eating that feels steadier and takes up less space.
Digestive Health
Gut symptoms can take over more of your life than most people let on. I support people with IBS, IBD, coeliac disease, bloating, diarrhoea, constipation, and complex gut presentations, including low FODMAP and gut-directed approaches. Gut symptoms and a difficult relationship with food often sit side by side, and I treat them together.
Metabolic Health
Metabolic health is about what your body is doing, not what it weighs. I work with insulin resistance, PMOS (formerly PCOS), type 2 diabetes, MASLD (previously known as fatty liver), perimenopause-related metabolic changes, and cardiometabolic risk. We start from your bloodwork, symptoms, and physiology, and focus on what to add in rather than take away. I also support people using GLP-1 medications.
Services
Initial Consultation — 650 AED
60 minutes
A first appointment to understand your full history: clinical, personal, and everything in between. We’ll build a clear picture of where you are and what you’re working toward, and you’ll leave with clear first steps.
Review Consultation — 450 AED
40 minutes
Follow-up appointments to see how things are landing, build on what’s working, and work through what comes up between sessions. How many reviews you need will depend on your clinical picture, your goals, and what’s practical for you. This is something we’ll discuss openly as we go.
All consultations are held online by video, wherever you are.
