My Approach as an Eating Disorder Recovery Coach
I take a warm and compassionate yet firm approach when it comes to helping my clients to recover. I meet my clients where they are, while also helping them to gradually challenge their eating disorder thoughts and behaviors.
I work from a Health At Every Size informed perspective, which I think is crucial to any kind of mental health care. I enjoy utilizing skills from DBT and CBT in my coaching work with clients. Additionally, I am a strong believer in intuitive eating and an "all foods fit" approach to coaching. I also love doing values-oriented work with clients.
My passion is helping people to find freedom from eating disorders and body hate, so that they can connect to their true values and live the kind of life they deserve.
I am personally recovered from my own eating disorder, which is what inspired my passion for this field. I am so grateful for the work that I do as a recovery coach and have loved helping clients to recover.
*I am taking on a limited number of new coaching clients. If spots are full, I am happy to refer you to another clinician or put you on a wait-list.

Sarah Baginski, Eating Disorder Recovery Coach FAQs
1. What is eating disorder recovery coaching, and how is it different from therapy?
Recovery coaching is a more action-oriented form of support that focuses on helping you apply recovery tools in your day-to-day life.
While therapy often focuses more on deeper emotional processing, coaching is centered around building structure, accountability, and practical steps toward recovery. Many clients find coaching especially helpful alongside therapy or when they want more goal and action-oriented support.
