About Jennifer

Hi I'm Jennifer! I am a registered and licensed dietitian with over 17 years of experience in one-on-one nutrition education and counseling. I have a bachelor's degree in Nutrition from the University of Tennessee and a master's degree in Clinical Nutrition from East Tennessee State University.

Approach to care

Frist, kindness. I try to make you as comfortable as possible and make sure you know that I am on your side! Second, education. Nutrition can be very confusing and overwhelming so I love to educate you on how foods work in your own body and how nutrition can help meet your health and wellness goals. I love to see client’s faces light up when they learn something new. Third, be realistic. Change happens when we set small, realistic goals that work with your life, your schedule, your family and your preferences. I try to break down the walls of perfection, unrealistic goals and false belief systems and focus on you as an individual

Your first session with Jennifer

I know it takes courage to make your first appointment, and I acknowledge that! In the first appointment I gather information to get to know you and what life looks like on a day-to-day basis; your health and wellness questions and concerns; your medical and nutrition history; and your goals and expectations for meeting with a dietitian. Then we will create a plan just for you.
