Hi, I’m Sara Palmer — a Registered Dietitian, Lactation Consultant, and someone who knows how exhausting it can be to feel like you're doing everything “right” and still feel stuck. I’m not here to fix your body, shrink your appetite, or hand you another list of rules. I’m here to help you feel human again.

I work with women navigating the intersection of eating disorders, disordered eating, fertility challenges, pregnancy, postpartum, and the overwhelming task of feeding themselves and their families. Whether you're trying to conceive with PCOS, healing after birth, or just completely exhausted by food rules — I’m here to help you reconnect with your body, feel confident around food, and enjoy your life again.

I practice from a weight-inclusive, anti-diet lens using the Health at Every Size® and Intuitive Eating frameworks. That means I won’t put you on a diet or make you earn your worth through food choices. Instead, I offer compassionate, evidence-based care that focuses on your values, your lived experience, and your long-term well-being — not just your lab results or a number on the scale. We’ll focus on adding things into your life, instead of creating rigid food rules and restrictions.

My work is grounded in over a decade of experience in maternal and child health — from clinical nutrition therapy to public health leadership. Through it all, what’s mattered most to me is supporting clients one-on-one: sitting with their stories, honoring their lived experiences, and helping them move toward peace with food and body in a way that truly lasts.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me curled up with a book, crafting, exploring the Carolinas, or treasure-hunting in thrift stores with a fun drink in hand. You can find me hanging out most on Instagram @sarapalmerrd — come say hi!
