Patient reviews
“Understanding and using the correct language to break down long-standing behaviors of food is critical to improving yourself. Working with Jacquelyn has fundamentally changed my relationship with food because she focuses on the whole and not just the parts. Conversations are encouraging and productive while meeting you where you will thrive. I now have a system and the language to express a successful relationship with food that goes beyond just goals. I couldn't have done it without Jacquelyn.“
