trauma-informed nutrition counselling for eating concerns & body image
You imagine achieving your dreams, like snagging that sweet job promotion, landing a book deal, travelling to a tropical destination, crushing it with your creative biz, getting a hot date, or starting a family. Heck, maybe you just want to go about your day without the constant food and body noise.
There’s just one problem. You feel like whatever you do, you're at war with food. Here’s the tea: if you’ve tried run-of-the-mill meal plans, multiple food rules, 12-step programs, and “eat in moderation” and nothing’s worked, you’re not alone — and it’s not your fault.
Even though eating problems live in the body, standard approaches usually leave the body out. Blending dynamic therapeutic techniques (Somatic Experiencing, ACT, parts work) with evidence-based, Intuitive Eating-informed nutrition counselling and deep body image work, I specialize in helping women and gender expansive folks find lasting peace from food noise and body image struggles. It is possible to trust yourself with food.

I get it.
why hello there.
I’m Sarah (She/Her)
somatic nutritionist, author, and founder of feel safe with food
I'm an anti-diet nutritionist, Certified Intuitive Eating Counsellor, and Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner in private practice since 2014. I've completed multiple body image and eating disorder trainings, 200+ personal therapy hours, and 200+ hours of professional supervision. My orientation is anti-oppressive, weight-inclusive, and collaborative, and I use a combination of therapy models and approaches in my practice to help you to have an easy relationship with food. I'm also an approved NEDIC service provider.
I also struggled with disordered eating (including binge eating), negative body image, and over-exercise for 15 years. I understand first-hand what it's like to hate your body and obsess over food. I knew I needed a more embodied approach to fully make peace with food and my body...which brought me to trauma-informed nutrition work.
