Rachel Johnston is a nationally recognised nutritionist with a passion for health and wellbeing. With a background in Childcare of 17 years, she took the plunge to return to study in 2021 to pursue her passion for nutrition and stepped into a part-time role in the Community Services sector as a case manager at the beginning of 2022. This transition brough with it the building blocks of Zest Health and Wellness.

Having experienced her own health and wellness journey with the support and guidance of a nutritionist, who Rachel now considers a friend and mentor, the value of health and wellbeing are at the forefront of her personal philosophy.

Empowering people to gain further insight and understanding into nutrition and working with them collaboratively to identify and achieve their health and wellness goals is what Rachel is most passionate about.

Zest Health and Wellness offers online nutritional counselling and coaching services that are individually tailored to the goals and needs of each client, which are identified and achieve through a collaborative approach within the counselling relationship. All clients are required to complete and initial health assessment to ensure that the service is the right fit both personally and clinically, this service is provided free of charge.

During a session, Rachel aims to support, guide, encourage and empower her clients on their health and wellness journey using a person-centred approach, mapping SMART goals to achieve success. Sessions are conducted via phone, Zoom or Teams allowing you to complete them from the comfort of your own home and range in length from 30 to 90 minutes.

Nutrition counselling provides the knowledge, tools and support to empower clients to make positive dietary changes, improve health outcomes and overall health and wellbeing.
