Straightforward Nutrition offers one-on-one nutrition counselling, specifically designed to support individuals struggling with binge eating, emotional eating, restrictive eating, and body image concerns. The service is available both in-person at their Claremorris location in Co. Mayo, and online, providing flexibility based on individual needs.

The clinic, run by Linn Thorstensson, a qualified Nutritional Therapist and Body Image Coach, is dedicated to helping clients break free from cycles of dieting, restrictive eating, and binge or emotional eating. Over the past decade, Linn has assisted hundreds of clients in overcoming food and weight obsessions, helping them realise that freedom from these struggles is possible, something many didn't think they could achieve.

Linn understands the challenges of battling body size and shape and how it often leads to a loss of control over eating habits. She believes that, as we stop fighting our bodies, we can regain control and move towards peace and healing. She offers hope to those who feel trapped by their relationship with food and body image, reminding them that recovery takes time, but it is always worth the effort. Linn invites those who feel stuck to book a free 30-minute consultation to explore how she can help on their journey toward freedom from food and weight obsessions.

My experience with Linn has been amazing. From the very beginning, Linn has been understanding, knowledgeable, patient, non-judgemental, empathetic, and genuinely interested in supporting me. Her insight, combined with the practical tools she provides, has made a real difference in my journey. She created a safe space where I felt comfortable opening up without fear of judgement. Even during times when I felt I wasn’t progressing as much as I would have liked, I was always met with empathy and encouragement. This made me feel accepted regardless of how well—or not so well—I felt I was doing, which was incredibly important for my growth. Through our work together, I’ve gained valuable insight into myself, particularly around my eating habits—understanding the reasons behind it, the barriers keeping me stuck, and the key areas I need to focus on to move forward. Linn has helped me develop greater compassion, kindness, patience, and empathy towards myself. She has also helped me understand the importance of balance in my life—not just in relation to food, but across my overall mental health. As a result, my overall wellbeing has improved significantly. I’ve learned to lower my expectations, be less critical of myself, and approach challenges with a more supportive mindset. I am incredibly grateful for all the help and guidance Linn has given me throughout the journey.

My experience with Linn has been transformative, enlightening, healing and life changing. Linn has helped me understand things that have been a mystery to me my whole life, and has shed light on a dark subject. She has given me the gift of loving food and my body again and the tools to carry this forward through the rest of my life. I can’t thank her or recommend her highly enough.

Working with Linn was both helpful and resourcing. Her compassion and insight of binge eating and the process underlying it really supported me to be more forgiving and understanding in my relationship with food.

Working with Linn was such a helpful and affirming experience for me, as I navigate AuDHD-related IBS and GERD. She was able to work with me to both assess and suggest protocols for balancing my nutrition when digestive issues arise and also with helping me unpack my own formative experiences of food, eating, habits and look at ways of expanding my "tool kit" for management of symptoms. She's also a warm, empathetic and friendly human; familiar, understanding and comfortable in manner while maintaining professionalism and holding clear judgement-free space for our sessions together.
