About Jennifer
Hi, I'm Jenn. I have been a dietitian for 15 years and have worked with patients of all ages and with all kinds of health motivators. I have specialized training in pediatric nutrition and womens health and I love fostering growth and development! My pediatric background gives me a unique perspective when working with adults, too! I know that nutrition habits start in early childhood and are bolstered by the obesegenic environment that we live in. If you are looking for a dietitian that considers the whole picture, rather than just the numbers, then go no further!
Approach to care
I use motivational interviewing to learn how nutrition plays out in your life. Why do you make the food choices you do? What have your tried in the past? What works and what doesn't? Your nutrition is about more than just what you eat, it is about your nutrition habits and how you came to have them. We will dig into this history to help you find many small changes that will make a big impact.
Your first session with Jennifer
Our first session is our opportunity to get to know one another and set your priorities. We will complete a full nutrition assessment, including both health and life factors, to see where you are in meeting your health goals. Based on the assessment, we set short and long term goals and then come up with a step-wise plan for meeting them. Often, patients find that they already have a plan in mind, it is just a matter of learning how to put it into action! By the end of our first session, I want you feel empowered to begin making small changes that will make a big impact in no time at all!
