About Jessica

Hi There! I am Jessica Villalvir (she/her), your future Dietitian! I am so excited you are here and want to share a little about myself with you. I am a career changer, business owner, wife to a USMC vet, mother of 2 boys, dog mama, and Latina! I have many different roles in my life, like I am sure you do too! My passion and personal goal in life is to help people live their most happy and healthy life. And, one’s relationship with food and self is SO vital to that success. I decided the Nutrition and Wellness path was for me after seeing lifelong struggles with one’s relationship with food, self, and body image. Why should we spend our lives hating ourselves and our bodies? I want to help EVERYONE lift their self-concept! I cannot wait to connect with you!

Approach to care

While working with me, you can expect a weight inclusive, safe, judgement free, and validating experience. After our sessions, you will leave feeling heard and empowered. It is important to me that our work is holistic and individualized to you! I work with all ages, gender identities, races, cultures, religions, and specialties. We will NOT focus on the number on the scale but health behaviors to improve your health and meet your goals.

Your first session with Jessica

Our first session will be spent really getting to know each other. Don’t worry if you are feeling nervous and anxious, I will always ask how you are feeling and put you at ease. This is a safe place and you are already doing the hard work by making an appointment and asking for help! Sometimes, that is the hardest part! I'll share some of my philosophies and approaches to my work. I will have a bunch of questions for you so that I can get an understanding of your life. Remember this is holistic and individualized care. Then we will discuss a plan that works for you as to how to approach your goals. How’s that sound?
