Overhauling your entire lifestyle is not sustainable and not necessary. Small changes 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.
They are not the food police and the last thing they would ever do is judge you. They will only offer support, encouragement, and guidance on your journey to reaching your goals.
They are The Practical Dietitians who meet you where you’re at and help you achieve YOUR goals on YOUR own terms.

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.

Her philosophy focuses on small changes that add up over time to create sustainable, long-term success.

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.
