Working with Relinquish is designed to feel safe, collaborative, and paced to you. This page explains what to expect when you reach out, how sessions usually unfold, and what is and isn’t expected of you. You’re welcome to read through this at your own pace, with no obligation to book.
Getting started can feel like the hardest part especially if conversations about food, body, or health have felt uncomfortable or harmful in the past.
You’re welcome to reach out via the contact form, email, or phone. There’s no pressure to know exactly what to say or to have a clear plan. A simple message is enough.
If you’re unsure whether this support is right for you, you can also start with a gentle, no-obligation conversation to see how it feels.
Once you get in touch, you’ll receive clear information about next steps, availability, and what to expect.
There is no preparation required. You don’t need food logs, tracking apps, or a specific goal in mind. You’re not expected to change how you eat or behave before we meet.
This space is about meeting you where you are.
The first session is a chance to get to know each other and to understand what’s brought you here.
We’ll gently explore:
your relationship with food and your body
what you’ve tried before
what has felt supportive and what hasn’t
what you’re hoping for from support
There is no weighing, pressure, or judgement. The pace is guided by you, with safety and consent always prioritised.
Ongoing support is flexible and adapts as your needs change over time.
Sessions may involve:
exploring food rules and beliefs shaped by diet culture
rebuilding trust in hunger, fullness, and body cues
reducing guilt, anxiety, or fear around food
supporting nourishment, safety, and overall wellbeing
working towards health outcomes that matter to you
There is no fixed timeline and no expectation to move faster than feels safe.

There is no weighing, pressure, or judgement. The pace is guided by you, with safety and consent always prioritised.
You will not be asked to:
follow restrictive diets or rigid meal plans
count calories or track food
focus on weight or body size
push through discomfort for progress
prove that you’re “struggling enough”
You don’t need to be ready, motivated, or certain. You just need to show up as you are.
Appointments are offered via secure telehealth, allowing you to access support from the comfort of your own space.
Telehealth can be helpful if in-person appointments feel overwhelming, flexibility is important, or privacy supports your sense of safety.
Clear instructions are provided before your session, and support is available if you’re new to telehealth.
