Sharon Sun, RD, BSc

Hello! My name is Sharon and I am a Registered Dietitian, who has come a long way to finding my own version of a love for food.

Having self-internalized diet culture messaging at a young age, I undertand the impact that this has on one's emotional, physical and social health and relationships. Moving away from food restriction to food freedom can be challenging and with great uncertainty, however you do not have to go through the journey alone. My approach is compassionate, encouraging and you can always expect me to be all ears and listening in a safe space. 

My experiences in nutrition counselling, serving adults at a young age to those in their elderly years, as well as community cooking instruction have enhanced my passion for delivering truly practical food and nutrition advice (which I promise will also never compromise on taste!). My goal in each conversation is to understand your individual upbringing, values, social context, personal motivations and reasons for desiring change, which all make you unique. These play an important role in developing a plan together that truly works for you. Working together, we'll find out how all foods can fit, including your favourite cultural foods and desserts. In the process, I hope you will find joy and revitalized energy in gaining small, but signficant, changes at a time that lead to sustained nourishment and wellness. 

In my free time, I enjoy advocacy work in healing food relationships with a desire to serve those in eating disorder recovery in the future. Outside of this, I can be found exploring the city's nature, creating art through painting or pottery, and baking up a cake/treat for friends. I can’t wait to meet you to discuss all things food!
