Built for the ones who think and feel deeply.

Come as you are — we'll meet you there. We offer neurodivergent-affirming, trauma-informed Dietetics, Counselling, and assessments to help you better understand and care for yourself.

Welcome,

The Nourished Collaborative is a space where every body and mind is welcome — where care feels accessible, inclusive, and deeply human.

We support our clients and community in gaining a deeper sense of awareness and agency when it comes to understanding and managing their health — inside and out.

Our evidence-based approaches meld science and soul, forming a foundation of care which is holistic in nature — serving to de-stigmatize and empower the human experience.

We're accredited healthcare professionals with Master's level educations in Dietetics, Counselling, and Psychology; we just do things differently — because to us, you're a whole person, not a patient.

We're based in Kelowna, BC, with virtual care available across British Columbia.

What We Do

The Nourished Collaborative is a safe place to land — where belonging is felt, growth is fostered, and healing is held.

We focus on the whole person — their nutritional, mental, and physical health, and are rooted in neurodivergent-affirming, trauma-informed care that focuses on education, intuitive eating, eating disorders, ADHD & ASD, women and gut health.

Where we Shine

Education

We believe that our humanhood, histories, and neurotypes should never be weaponized against us — which is why education and acceptance are at the forefront of everything we do.

We see knowledge is power — it puts tangible information into your hands, so you have more capacity to make informed and intentional decisions involving your health and wellbeing.

A deeper understanding of yourself, your nervous system, as well as your brain and body's needs, gives you back the reins — and paves the way to accessing more self-awareness, self-compassion, and accountability.

We offer nutrition education, as well as psychoeducation.

Meet the Team

Hi!

My name is Amber Whittemore RD, MHsc, BScN,

I am a Registered Dietitian, Nutrition Counsellor, Neurodiversity Coach, as well as the founder and Clinical Director of The Nourished Collaborative (TNC).

I created TNC in 2020 because I couldn’t find the kind of support I needed when I was struggling — so I built it.

This community reflects both my lived and professional experience, as well as my special interests, bringing together my passion for neurodivergence, mental health, and eating disorder recovery.

My vision was to create a safe, inclusive, and accessible space where people of all neurotypes, body types, identities and orientations feel genuinely welcome, supported and seen.

As a practitioner, I work closely with neurodiversity (ADHD, ASD) as well as intuitive and disordered eating.

My approaches are trauma-informed and rooted in self-compassion, radical acceptance, and weight-neutrality — because I believe we all deserve to cheerlead ourselves forward, not bully ourselves there.

I am an AuDHD, queer, cis-woman, and my pronouns are she/her.

Hey!

My name is Ally Goult RCC, MA, BA,

I am a Registered Clinic Counsellor, Somatic Practitioner, and Birth Doula.

I have been working with TNC since 2021, and value all the amazing client relationships I have been able to forge in this time.

I am passionate about my mission to help others feel more connected to themselves through self-inquiry, understanding, and acceptance.

Education and compassion are at the forefront of everything I do, because I want my clients to learn how to start meeting themselves in non-judgment — exactly how they are met by me.

As a practitioner, I work closely with disordered eating and body image, nervous system support, and women's health — with a unique focus on pregnancy, perinatal, and postpartum periods. As a mother myself, working with other new mamas has become a special interest of mine.

I am a neurotypical, cis-woman, and my pronouns are she/her.

Howdy!

My name is Jilleun Tenning PhD, RCC, ASDCS, ADHD-CCSP/CE,

I am a Registered Clinical Counsellor, Researcher, Doctorate,

Neurodivergent Clinician and Mental Health Leader.

I have over 15 years of experience offering trauma-informed care, neurodevelopmental assessments, and psychotherapy. I am the founder and Clinical Director of InFocus, a virtual healthcare clinic that works in collaboration with The Nourished Co.

I offer formal adult Autism and ADHD assessments alongside InFocus's Psychiatrist, Dr. Dirk Kotze. As is in alignment with The Nourished Collaborative, my assessments through InFocus are accessible, ethical, and evidence-based.

I recognize that neurodivergent mental health cannot be separated from the social and cultural contexts in which it develops. So, my work honours how trauma, systemic barriers, and masking shape well-being — especially for women, 2SLGBTQIA+, racialized, or otherwise marginalized, individuals.

I am an Autistic, cis-woman, and my pronouns are she/her.

How to Work With Us

We provide several options for working with us, both directly and indirectly, to increase accessibility to our services.

Our goal is to help make evidence-based, trauma-informed, and neurodivergent-affirming support as accessible as possible, so we work to remove as many barriers as we can — because getting the support you need should be a right, not a privilege.

Work With Us

Connect Calls

We know how important it is to find the right practitioners to support your nutrition, mental health, and overall well-being.

That’s why we offer no-charge, no-obligation 30-minute connect video calls — giving you the chance to connect with our team prior to moving forward, or committing to an assessment.

We can use this time to answer your questions, discuss accessibility options, chat about our approaches, and/or see if our individual counselling or group programs are the right fit for you and your needs!

Why Work With Us?

Because you deserve care that feels real, respectful, and rooted in integrity.

We do things differently — grounding our work in science, soul, and a deep respect for individuality. We meet you where you are, honouring your lived experience while helping you move toward meaningful change in safe, sustainable, supportive ways.

Integrity

You can trust that everything we offer is grounded in evidence, transparency, and respect. We hold ourselves accountable to practicing what we teach — showing up with honesty, care, and professionalism in every interaction.

Inclusivity

We celebrate all bodies, identities, and lived experiences. Our space is neurodivergent-affirming, trauma-informed, and LGBTQ+ inclusive — because true healing happens when you feel safe, seen, and valued.

Accessibility

We believe support should be within reach. That’s why we offer sliding scale options, free connect calls, and community education through our blog, social media, and upcoming podcast, workshops, and courses.

Authenticity

We bring our full, human selves to this work — embracing honesty, empathy, and imperfection. Healing isn’t about performing wellness; it’s about reconnecting with what’s real and true for you. We offer a genuine mirror for that.
