She facilitates diabetes education programs and nutrition seminars to community groups and also subcontracts to provide school presentations and corporate nutrition advice and education.

While Beck sees patients with many different health issues, insulin resistance, pre-diabetes, type 1 diabetes, and type 2 diabetes are her main areas of focus. She has a special interest in metabolic health and uses a thoughtful, therapeutic approach to support these chronic health conditions. She has undertaken additional training and education in the application of adjusting carboydrate intake for appropraite conditions. Using this approach, together with diabetes education, many of her patients have improved their blood glucose/HbA1c levels and some have reversed their type 2 and pre-diabetes.

"My philosophy to food is pretty simple - eating a variety of quality, nutritious whole foods most of the time, while allowing ourselves to have the fun food we also enjoy along the way – without the guilt, shame or negative thoughts which can come with that. Sometimes we need help to develop skills to do this in a way that builds self-esteem, self-worth and overall health. This is where my extensive experience in health coaching, counselling and education supports my role as a dietitian." Beck
