Overhauling your entire lifestyle all at once is not sustainable and not necessary. Small changes over time that are realistic for you as an individual are the key to long-term success.

By working with Leanne and Sarah, you will be the driver on your way to achieving your long-term health goals or improving your relationship with food and body image for GOOD.

Whether you are working towards recovery from an eating disorder or wanting to improve/prevent chronic disease, they will offer support, encouragement, and guidance in a 100% judgement-free space along your journey.

They are The Practical Dietitians who meet you where you’re at and help you achieve YOUR goals on YOUR own terms.

 

Sarah Atlas
RD, LD

Sarah is a Registered and Licensed Dietitian and co-owner of Nutrition Aligned. Sarah’s desire to become a Registered Dietitian was originally inspired by her own experiences going through major hip surgeries to correct sports injuries from growing up a competitive runner and soccer player. Through this experience, she saw firsthand the crucial role that proper nourishment had in sports injury recovery and prevention as well as life in general.

Since becoming a Registered Dietitian, Sarah has absolutely loved being able to help others achieve health goals through diet and lifestyle changes. Her philosophy focuses on small changes that add up over time to create sustainable, long-term success. Over the past few years, she has helped many patients with several conditions achieve success and loves getting updates from her patients about their wins – big and small! Sarah’s previous patients have described her as “inspiring” “empathetic” and “able to meet me where I’m at” and have found nutritional alignment by working with her.

Sarah also has a huge passion for helping those struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, and body image issues to break free and live their lives to the fullest. She is currently working toward her CEDS (Certified Eating Disorder Specialist) Certification and continues to go through extensive training in the field of eating disorders. Over the past few years, she has helped many patients achieve recovery.

Sarah earned her Bachelor of Science in Sports Medicine from Colorado State University and then attended Arizona State University to earn her degree in nutrition. She attended the University of Nevada, Las Vegas for her dietetic internship. In her free time, Sarah enjoys hiking or really anything active/outdoors, laughing with family and friends, and playing with her kittens (Lilly and Nugget) and dog (Wrigley).
