My areas of expertise include guiding clients through eating disorder recovery, addressing disordered eating, embracing intuitive eating, managing chronic illnesses, and overcoming a variety of nutrition-related challenges.

Behavior change requires time, effort, and resources. To have all of these things requires immense privilege. Our culture and healthcare systems create barriers to impede treatment and neglect care for individuals who are stigmatized due to the size of their bodies. Healing and true rapport are pillars to develop safe and vulnerable relationships with providers. You deserve an environment free of judgment and shame. We are committed to your understanding that what you are struggling with is not your fault.

At Mend Therapy we serve people of all sizes and shapes, abilities, races, representations, and orientations. You are the expert of yourself. As your provider, we want to be your teammate, helping you create space for yourself to meet your wants and needs of self care.

Our approach is rooted in individualized, size-affirming care with you at the core. The credentials at the end of our names represent our education and training as experts in nutrition and physical therapy. As providers, our priority is to guide you to become the true expert of yourself. This does include rigid rules and unrealistic expectations. You’re behind the wheel and we’ll be the passenger pilot – there to offer you guidance, not make the decision – at Mend Therapy you determine what health means for you.

Hello! I’m Marissa, a self-proclaimed foodie and plant lover. I’ve always been passionate about cooking, eating, and growing food! I’m fascinated by the unique relationship each of us has with food.

My name is Rachael Utstein and I am a Registered Dietitian licensed in Massachusetts & Connecticut. I specialize in working with individuals struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, and body image. I believe that people of all body sizes and identities deserve a peaceful relationship with food and their bodies.

“How” we work together depends on the person and circumstance. For some, the work is focused on gaining knowledge and applying behaviors. For others, it may also involve exploring the impact of thoughts, beliefs, and relationships that impact how we navigate food and movement.

While the work we do can be serious, I enjoy bringing moments of energy and levity to the journey. The goal is to help people develop the knowledge, skills, and confidence to navigate food and movement in alignment with their values.

Sarah Butler, MS, RDN (she/they) is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist who believes everyone deserves a whole life beyond the struggles of an eating disorder or disordered eating, and is passionate about helping others to heal their relationship with food and their body.

Sarah understands that there are many factors that can influence the way one thinks and feels about, as well as interacts with food and their body.

Sarah’s approach combines their knowledge of nutrition and health promotion with their client’s own inner wisdom.

Sarah received a Bachelor’s of Science Degree in Nutrition and Dietetics, and a Master’s Degree in Nutrition and Health Promotion from Simmons University, Boston. While completing her Master’s degree, she was able to focus on Nutrition Therapy for Eating Disorders, which only solidified her interest in working with individuals with eating disorders. Sarah then returned to Simmons University to complete a dietetic internship with a specialized eating disorder focus, one of the few programs like it in the country. Through the internship, they gained experience working with individuals at various levels of eating disorder care, including residential, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient care. After ending their internship rotation at Whole Life Nutrition, Anna invited Sarah to join the team, where they now continue the work they feel so passionate about.
