About Sara

I specialize in helping people create sustainable, joyful relationships with food—whatever your goals may be. Whether you're working on managing a medical condition, improving your energy levels, or simply building healthier habits, I’m here to support you every step of the way. I love working with clients to set achievable goals, celebrate progress, and explore a variety of foods without guilt or restriction. I take a compassionate, evidence-based approach to each session. I’m so glad you’re here and can’t wait to get started!

Approach to care

I believe in patient-centered care that fits your life—not the other way around. Together, we'll build a realistic and personalized nutrition plan that aligns with your lifestyle, preferences, and goals. I focus on small, sustainable changes that feel manageable and impactful over time. My role is to guide and empower you to discover what works best for you, and help you feel confident in your food choices—not overwhelmed by them.

Your first session with Sara

In our first session, my goal is to get to know you—not just your nutrition goals, but your story. We'll talk about your past experiences with food, your current routines, and any challenges you're facing. I'll ask about your likes and dislikes, medical history, and what a typical day looks like for you. From there, we'll identify both short-term and long-term goals, review any relevant education, and set a few manageable action steps to get you moving in the right direction before our next meeting.
