“Working with Sarah has helped me simplify my relationship with food and supplements. I have become more organized and compliant with my daily supplement routine, prioritize meal prep, and have become much more aware of ongoing (versus scheduled) movement. I love Sarah’s positive energy and encouragement. She helps you identify attainable goals which provides motivation to do more. I appreciate that Sarah looks at her clients holistically- nutrition, stressors, sleep, and exercise. I feel my work with Sarah is laying a foundation for a sustainable healthy lifestyle.”
“Although I thought I had a great, healthy living lifestyle and exercise regimen, Sarah showed me things I could add and use appropriately to reach my goals without restricting me. I now feel more comfortable with my relationship with food. Sarah helped me with more than just my eating habits, but managing my energy throughout the day by pairing certain foods and getting the proper hydration I didn’t know I needed. It’s truly heartwarming to be a client of Sarah’s— she cares and helps uncover all avenues of mental, physical, and emotional health and wellbeing to help me operate at my best. The 24/7 texting feature that comes with being her client, helps me make game time decisions in times of need, that often used to lead to anxiety. I know the things I have learned from Sarah no other doctor has uncovered in the years I have been seeing them. If you are struggling with mood, energy, or want to fine tune what you’re already doing— getting Sarah’s perspective really changed everything for me.”
“Before reaching out to Sarah I worked with nutritionists and a functional medicine doctor. I made great progress working with these professionals, but I made no headway mentally. I felt extremely dissatisfied with my body; more so than I did when I began this process in 2016. My personal life revolved around my meals, my macros, and my workouts.
I reached out to Sarah wanting to fulfill a small weight loss goal and for precise guidance on which diet would work best with my body. Sarah – lightly but swiftly – shut those ideas down because she could sense I was coming from a negative headspace: She helped me realize I was on a mission to change a body I hated using a mind I didn’t trust.
Considering the positive lifestyle changes I had already made; Sarah tailored my program to be more therapeutic and emotionally supportive. Over the course of three months Sarah has given me the tools to help me shift my mindset and start developing self-trust. She is always suggesting resources to me, to help me see myself in a more positive light. Sarah has given me the guidance to turn inward vs. outward for validation and acceptance. By working through my sessions with Sarah she helped me discover that my true goals were to heal my relationship with food and myself. There is no program, macro tracker, or app that could heal me the way Sarah has.”
