About Jessica
Hello! I'm Jessica, a Spanish-speaking Registered Dietitian specializing in empowering individuals to achieve their long-term wellness goals. With a B.S. in Clinical Nutrition, I bring a wealth of experience in managing the following: prediabetes and type 2 diabetes, weight management and meal planning, heart disease, high cholesterol, bariatrics, kidney health, and geriatrics. I'm passionate about providing personalized and culturally competent care, ensuring that each client feels supported and informed on their journey to better health. My mission is to guide you with evidence-based nutrition strategies, helping you navigate challenges and celebrate your successes along the way. Let's work together to make lasting, positive changes for your health! 😊
Approach to care
I take a patient-centered approach, prioritizing your unique needs, preferences, and health goals. Using evidence-based nutrition guidance, I help you achieve your goals in a way that fits your lifestyle. I can also create a personalized meal plan designed to support your energy needs and set you up for long-term success!
Your first session with Jessica
In our very first session together, we’ll start by having a warm and open conversation about your current diet and lifestyle habits. This will help me get to know you better and understand what’s working well for you, as well as any areas where you might like to make some changes. We’ll also take some time to chat about your short-term and long-term goals you’re working toward. Whether it’s feeling more energized, building healthier habits, or anything else, your goals are important, and I’m here to help you reach them. After that, I’ll share a bit about my approach and how I like to work with clients. This way, we can make sure we’re a great fit and that you feel comfortable and confident moving forward. My goal is to create a supportive, positive, and collaborative space where we can work together to help you thrive.
