nutrition for neurodiverse minds

You deserve nutrition care that sees the whole picture
— your biology, your brain, your story, and your capacity.
My role is to help you understand what’s driving your symptoms and create a plan that feels realistic, sustainable, and supportive,
you can feel better in your body and your daily life.

I wanted to build the space I needed — and couldn’t find.

A space where neurodivergent individuals, especially adolescent girls and women, can feel seen, heard, and supported.
A space where care is collaborative, shamefree, and paced to your
capacity.
A space where your brain is not a barrier — it’s part of the plan.

Neurotypical clients are always welcome too, especially those navigating complex health,hormones, metabolism, digestion, or chronic overwhelm.


Rooted in science. Nourished with care.

At Spicy Brains Nutrition, I specialize in integrative and functional nutrition counselling
for neurodiverse adolescents and adults, including those with ADHD and autism.
My mission is to support your unique brain and body through personalized,
evidence-based nutrition strategies that enhance
focus, mood, energy, and overall well-being.


 

I’m Yvonne Mullan, MSc, RD, CDE, IFNCP — a Registered Dietitian, with more than 20 years of experience, and specialized training in diabetes and integrative and functional nutrition. I am also a late-diagnosed ADHDer raising an AuDHD teen.

​

I understand firsthand how hormones, stress, executive function, sensory needs, and real life shape the way we eat and care for ourselves. My own health journey — from anemia and insulin resistance to menopause, fatigue, and navigating a fragmented healthcare system — led me to Integrative & Functional Nutrition.

 

I wanted to understand why symptoms happen, not just how to manage them, and to translate complex science into practical steps that actually fit real life.

 

I created Spicy Brains Nutrition as a place where neurodivergent individuals can feel seen, supported, and understood — and neurotypical clients are always welcome too, especially those navigating complex health, hormones, metabolism, digestion, or chronic overwhelm.

 

My approach blends evidence-based dietetics, integrative and functional nutrition, and lived experience to help you build sustainable strategies that work with your life, your brain, and your capacity.
