Tom graduated from Griffith University with a Bachelor of Nutrition and Dietetics in 2021. Since then, he has completed postgraduate training in Sports Nutrition through Sports Dietitians Australia and in Functional Gut Disorders (including IBS) with Monash University.

​

Tom has worked across both public and private healthcare settings in Australia and the UK. His clinical interests include chronic disease management, functional gut disorders, and sports nutrition, and he is passionate about using evidence-based practice and modern technology to deliver personalised, effective care.

​​

Tom is experienced in helping patients with:

  • T2DM, NAFLD, CVD and associated risk factors

  • Weight concerns

  • Athletes of all levels (adolescents case by case)

  • IBS and other functional gut disorders

  • Food first nutrition support

  • Mental health

  • Nutrient Deficiencies

  • Menopause

​

When he’s not working, Tom is usually travelling, playing or watching sport, or experimenting with new recipes - often with far more enthusiasm than culinary skill.

Lane founded Guardian Dietitian out of a deep passion for helping people restore their relationships with food and their bodies. Witnessing the challenges many face with eating, well-being, and body image, Lane recognised the need for compassionate, evidence-based support that goes beyond numbers on a scale—helping individuals rebuild trust in themselves and create a lasting connection between body, mind, and food.

Lane is experienced in supporting adolescents and adults with Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, ARFID, OSFED, and disordered eating patterns, as well as individuals managing co-occurring chronic diseases and mental health conditions impacted by eating behaviors. Lane believes that recovery is more than just eating differently—it’s a journey of physical, emotional, and mental healing that fosters long-term well-being and self-compassion.

With over a decade of experience, Lane is dedicated to creating a welcoming, supportive space where individuals feel heard and empowered to move toward a healthier, more peaceful relationship with food.
