About Sarah

Hi, I’m Sarah, a Registered Dietitian based in the Kansas City metro area. I bring eight years of experience across clinical and hospital settings, community health, and outpatient counseling, and I earned my MS in Dietetics from The University of Kansas Medical School. I’m passionate about helping people build confidence in their food choices and how they feel about their overall health. When I’m not meeting with clients, you’ll find me painting, baking and cooking, hiking or biking, and enjoying time with friends. I strive to meet you where you are and make your goals a reality, because food should bring joy and nourish us.

Approach to care

I work from an evidence-based, holistic approach that honors HAES principles. I believe nutrition is personal and science-guided, not a one size fits all plan. I’m empathetic and warm, meeting you in a judgment-free space while offering clear, actionable steps and accountability. Our work together focuses on long term, sustainable changes rather than quick fixes. I emphasize education so you feel informed and capable, and I’ll adapt strategies to your life, values, and goals for lasting health.

Your first session with Sarah

Think of our first appointment as a conversation about you. We'll review your medical history, talk through your daily routines, and take a deep dive into your relationship with food. No need to have it all figured out before we meet; this is a warm, judgment-free, low-pressure space. Together we’ll establish short-term goals and outline a practical plan for the coming weeks, so you leave with clarity and a few steps you can start today.
