About Sarah

More about Sarah

I am a highly experienced Registered Dietitian with over 20 years of NHS practice, supporting people through some of the most complex and emotionally demanding stages of their health journey. My work has spanned surgical care, gastroenterology, and stroke rehabilitation, as well as extensive experience in mental health, learning disabilities, and eating disorders with both adults and young people. These experiences have shown me just how overwhelming it can feel when food becomes confusing, stressful, or tangled up with emotion – and how transformative the right support can be.

Many of the people I work with arrive feeling stuck, frustrated, or unsure where to turn next. They’ve often tried to manage things alone for a long time, only to find that information, willpower, or “trying harder” isn’t enough. My role is to offer the clarity, structure, and compassionate guidance they’ve been missing.

My approach is intuitive, warm, and grounded in evidence. I create a safe, steady space where you can explore your relationship with food without judgement, understand what your body truly needs, and build confidence at a pace that feels manageable. Education is central to my work, helping you make sense of the ‘why’ behind your eating patterns, while practical support ensures you can apply that knowledge in everyday life.

Because of my specialist background in mental health and eating disorders, I’m attuned to the psychological layers that often sit beneath eating difficulties. I offer sensitive, appropriate advice and signposting when needed, ensuring your emotional wellbeing is supported alongside your nutritional needs.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from your body, or unsure how to move forward, you don’t have to keep navigating this alone. This is a space where you can begin to rebuild confidence, find clarity, and create a healthier, more peaceful relationship with food.

I am passionate about delivering high-quality, evidence-based advice that is tailored to each client in a holistic and person-centred way.

My Story

Sports, health, fitness, and the outdoors have been lifelong passions that have shaped both my personal values and professional journey. These interests inspired me to pursue a career in nutrition and dietetics, where wellbeing remains at the core of my work. For over 30 years, I have played hockey and cared for horses, experiences that have deepened my appreciation for the importance of dedicating time to the activities you love. Horses, in particular, have provided me with a source of calm and resilience, helping me navigate stress and challenging moments. Their intuitive nature and ability to foster presence in the moment motivated me to gain further qualifications in equine-assisted services, enabling me to share the healing power of horses with my dietetic clients.

What Our Clients Say

"I started working with Sarah because I was dealing with constant acid reflux, and nothing I tried was helping. Sarah quickly helped me pinpoint my trigger foods and showed me how to adjust my meals without feeling like I was missing out.

Within a few weeks, my symptoms were way better and I didn’t need to rely on medication. I finally feel like I have a handle on what my body needs.

Super grateful for Sarah's support and easy-to-follow advice. Highly recommend Sarah if you’re dealing with reflux or digestive issues."

"I recently reached out to Sarah for support with my daughters upset tummy, and I'm so glad that I did. She was incredibly knowledgeable, reassuring and took the time to explain what might be causing the discomfort. Her guidance on keeping my daughter properly hydrated much such a difference, and we noticed improvements quickly."

"I came to Sarah after struggling with acid reflux for years. I had tried medications, quick fixes, and countless internet tips, but nothing brought lasting relief. From our first meeting, Sarah approached my situation with empathy, professionalism, and a clear understanding of how nutrition plays a role in managing reflux also highlighting the importance of stress control and sleep management.

She helped me identify specific trigger foods, adjust meal timing, and develop a sustainable eating plan that supported my digestion without feeling restrictive. Within just a few weeks, my symptoms were noticeably better—and for the first time in a long time, I felt in control of my health.

What I appreciated most was Sarah's ability to make the science simple and the changes achievable. Sarah’s ongoing support and encouragement kept me motivated, and now I feel better not just physically, but mentally too.
