Sophie CorbettDietitian

With years of experience supporting individuals in their recovery from eating disorders and disordered eating, I am passionate about helping people build a positive relationship with food and their bodies. I believe that trust, listening, and relationship-building are at the heart of effective nutrition counselling, ensuring my clients feel understood and supported every step of the way. While also giving a push of encouragement when needed. As a teenager, I struggled with body image and my relationship with food. At 17, I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease, an experience that changed my perspective. When I went into remission, I developed a newfound appreciation for my body for what it allowed me to do: dance, laugh with friends, and enjoy nourishing food. A dietitian played a crucial role in my recovery, inspiring me to pursue a career in dietetics to help others navigate their own food-related challenges. I completed Nutrition and Dietetics at the University of Nottingham, graduating with first-class honours in 2020. I began my career in the NHS, working in community dietetics, then specialising in child and adolescent mental health (CAMHS), where I helped develop an eating disorder pathway. I later transitioned to a private hospital setting, supporting patients throughout their recovery journeys. I founded Mental Health Dietitians in June 2024. Since then, I have continued to expand my expertise. I have completed training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Body Image Counselling, Guided Self-Help, and Motivational Interviewing. I am particularly interested in body image work and veganism during recovery. Alongside my clinical work, I am passionate about debunking nutrition misinformation and challenging diet culture. I regularly share evidence-based insights on Instagram and in my newsletter to help people develop a healthier, more informed relationship with food and their bodies. While my work can be challenging, I wouldn’t want to do anything else – helping people reclaim their lives from eating disorders is my greatest passion.
