About Jennifer
Hello, I am Jenny, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist working in Ohio. I have over 30 years of experience with 20 years in a hospital- based outpatient oncology clinic. I work with patients undergoing cancer treatment (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation, surgery). I am well versed in nutrition impact symptoms and strategies to help manage symptoms and optimize nutrition through cancer treatment. I bring experience from hospital clinical work and community health programs. I value translating evidence into doable steps to help you navigate your cancer journey. When Iβm not working I enjoy camping, gardening, walking with my golden retrievers and spending time with family and playing games.
Approach to care
I ground my counseling in evidence based practice while keeping conversations practical yet open and inviting. I am empathetic and find great joy in helping people through cancer treatment and beyond. i am well-versed in cancer treatment plans, nutrition impact symptoms, tube feeding management. I have worked extensively with the head and neck cancer population. I listen to your story, concerns, values and challenges to provide you Medical Nutrition Therapy and practical interventions. I look at the whole person and favor clear actionable steps we can try together. I practice weight-neutral care focusing on biomarkers and wellbeing. Education is central, so i teach skills you can use for sustainable change.
Your first session with Jennifer
Expect a relaxed, nonjudgmental visit where I aim to make you comfortable and we'll take inventory of your health to figure out priorities together. We'll review your medical history, and I'll go over any lab work you have, then we'll establish a couple of short-term, achievable goals so you leave with clear next steps. You don't need to have everything figured out before the appointment. We'll move at a pace that fits you and your needs. I am honored to be a part of your nutrition care.
