About Jessica

Hi! I’m Jessica, a Registered Dietitian and stay-at-home mom who understands how challenging it can be to prioritize nutrition in the middle of a busy life. Between work, kids, and everything else on your plate, eating well can feel overwhelming — but it doesn’t have to be. I take a realistic, sustainable approach to nutrition that fits into your everyday routine. My experience includes working in a variety of clinical settings, including a bariatric clinic, where I’ve supported individuals through meaningful health transformations. Whether your goals are big or small, I’m here to provide practical guidance, accountability, and encouragement every step of the way. Let’s create a plan that works for your real life.

Approach to care

My care philosophy is simple: we use evidence-based guidance, but you lead the plan. I’m empathetic and warm, creating a judgment-free space where you feel seen and heard. I’m direct and action-oriented, translating science into practical steps you can actually follow. I focus on sustainable behaviors and long‑term health rather than quick fixes. I see you as a whole person, and I’ll help you build an eating pattern that fits your life, values, and favorite foods.

Your first session with Jessica

Our first appointment is all about you. We’ll review your medical history, explore your routines and your relationship with food, and start to set short-term goals. You don’t need to have everything figured out before we meet; this is a collaborative conversation, not an exam. We’ll discuss what’s working, what isn’t, and how we can weave healthy eating into your everyday life. By the end, you’ll leave with a couple of clear next steps and a sense of what we’ll tackle together.
