What if I told you -
Your body was never the problem.
It was the solution, all along.
We live in a culture that thrives on disconnection.
Disconnection from your hunger. From your body. From your power.
The more you shrink, the less space you take up.
The less space you take up, the less you remember who you truly are.
But you were born for more than this. So much more.
And that is the work we do here at Alitus Health.
You donโt need fixing. You need freedom.
Freedom to return to your bodyโs wisdom; freedom to lay down the shame; freedom to step into your sovereignty, fully and gently, in your own time.
Why I Do This Work
For as long as I can remember, Iโve been captivated by the complex, tender, and often painful ways we learn to live in our bodies.
I became a dietitian via my nutrition and biomedical sciences degrees, but the longer I worked in traditional models, the more I realised was missing.
Because for many people - maybe for you too - food is not just food.
Itโs safety. It's control. It's grief. Itโs everything and nothing at once.
I realized: we canโt think our way out of patterns that were built for survival.
We have to feel our way through.
Thatโs where somatic nutrition therapy was born in my practice - and itโs what I now bring to every client I sit beside.
How I Work
My approach blends science with softness, structure with safety.
Together, we explore the nervous system, food behaviors, and the bodyโs deeper story with compassion and curiosity.
This isnโt about meal plans or self-control.
Itโs about nervous system regulation. Safety. Body-trust.
We work gently with the survival patterns - like bingeing, restricting, or numbing - that once protected you, and learn new ways of relating to food, body, and self.
Your body doesnโt need to be micromanaged. It needs to be met.
And I will meet you there.
Who I Am
Iโm Emily Hahn - accredited dietitian, nutrition therapist, certified intuitive eating counsellor, credentialled eating disorder clinician, and the founder of Alitus Health.
But more importantly, Iโm someone who has lived the pain of feeling so trapped in their relationship with food and body, they could see no way out; someone who has learned to move through the pain & with the body to find the deep peace in a world that perpetually asks us to abandon ourselves.
This work is my calling and my deep privilege.
Letโs Begin, Together
Youโre not too much.
Youโre not broken.
You donโt have to keep doing this alone.
There is another way - one rooted in softness, safety, & soul.
And I would be honoured to walk beside you as you find your way home.
