About Jennifer

Hello thank you for working with us at Nourish! I specialize patients whom are diagnosed with Prediabetes, Diabetes, Type 1 Type 2 or Gestational Diabetes, Pre Bariatrics Weight Loss Surgery Planning or are diagnosed with High Cholesterol. I will work with General nutrition and weight loss patients. Nourish offers free labs which will give us more insights into what can be beneficial for us to dive into and discuss. I have much experience with these topics. Look forward to connecting 😃!! What you can look forward to and expect is that I will work with you on how to build your own healthy meals based around your current lifestyle and habits help you better understand and appreciate what makes a meal.

Approach to care

My approach is holistic because the bigger picture, not just how many pounds am I losing every week, it is important but also small day to day changes are so valuable and DO make a difference down the road. I believe what makes our visits valuable is giving you food inspiration and helping you understand the whys and not necessarily fixating on a, "meal plan." Its all about what will work for you the best. I want to help you feel confident in food facts and how to navigate through all of the media trends, I also aim to follow best practices and science supported recommendations. I also feel that collaboration is key; whether it is info I can gain from other clinicians or those especially talented people with cooking and food prep knowledge but most especially between you and I... we will work out solutions one meal at a time.

Your first session with Jennifer

There is so much to know about your preferences, habits and goals so when we first meet I will be just getting to know all about you and what you hope want from our visits and hear your questions and concerns. I prefer walking through your typical day of eating together in which there is absolutely zero judgment and hope you can feel completely open and comfortable in sharing.
