About Jessica

Hi, I’m Jess, a dietitian in the Greater Seattle Area. I specialize in weight loss, weight management, general nutrition, plant-based eating, gut health, food allergies and sensitivities, celiac disease, IBS, and all types of elimination diets. My approach is practical, supportive, and rooted in real life. Beyond nutrition counseling, I’ve worked in dietary supplements, food systems, and higher education foodservice, helping create healthier, more supportive food environments. My expertise in ingredient quality and specifications has been central to all of my work, ensuring that the ingredients you choose are both nutritious and suited to your unique dietary needs.

Approach to care

My approach is realistic, supportive, and tailored to your life—not based on trends or one-size-fits-all plans. Whether you're trying to get to the bottom of digestive issues, manage a long-standing condition, or simply feel better in your day-to-day routine, I’m here to help you build a way of eating that feels good and actually works for you. I also offer coaching to support motivation, consistency, and mindset—especially during times when change feels overwhelming.

Your first session with Jessica

In our first session, we’ll talk about what brought you here—your interests, past experiences, and what you’re hoping to get out of nutrition counseling. I’ll do a full nutrition assessment so we can get a clear picture of your lifestyle, medical history, and overall needs. My goal is to meet you where you’re at and work with you to create a personalized plan that actually fits your life. We’ll set a few short- and long-term goals together and figure out what kind of support or accountability works best for you. At the end of the session, you’ll choose a few small goals to focus on for the week ahead, and we’ll schedule a follow-up to keep the momentum going. I’ll be here to help you stay on track, adjust as needed, and celebrate your progress along the way. You don’t have to do this alone!
