About Jessica
Hi! My name is Jessica, and I am excited you are here! My desire as a dietitian is to "make a positive lasting difference in the world by using my passion for nutrition, and my love of people as a platform to enrich the lives of others." It brings me great joy to see people heal and recover through the use of nutrition. I can't wait to walk along side you in your journey to achieving health and wellness!
Approach to care
My approach to care is to equip and empower you with the knowledge and tools necessary to confidently take your health into your own hands. I view health through a holistic lens. We are complex beings, made up of mind, body and soul, and it is important to address the needs of the whole body in order to achieve optimal wellness. The choices we make daily can promote health, or not. When assessing an individual, I strive to look for the root of the problem and address it, so that my clients can achieve long lasting results. I look forward to partnering with you on this exciting journey!
Your first session with Jessica
Our first session will focus on learning all about you! I will listen with kindness and empathy, ensuring you feel heard and understood as you share your story. We will work as a team to identify which areas you want to work on or see improvement in, and create corresponding goals. While I will be there to help guide you in the goal setting process, my desire is for you to lead the way, as you know best what you want to achieve, as well as what has or has not worked in the past. We will use the goals you set during the first session to create a plan for success!
