About Jocelyn
Hi, I’m Jocelyn — a registered dietitian and health coach with over 10 years of experience in nutrition and lifestyle counseling. I’m skilled in all areas of clinical nutrition and am passionate about helping people lose weight, boost energy, balance blood sugar, support heart health, reduce inflammation, and improve mental well-being through healthy, sustainable eating and lifestyle changes. As the founder of SoulRise Nutrition & Wellness, I empower individuals to reach optimal health through mindful eating, a positive relationship with food, and personalized nutrition support. Having personally struggled with being overweight, PCOS, fatigue, and acne, I understand how hard change can be — and how transformative it is. My mission is to help you understand your body, take charge of your health, and become the teacher and lifestyle coach you never knew you needed.
Approach to care
I take a holistic, science-based approach to nutrition, being mindful that our food choices and overall health are influenced by the eight dimensions of wellness. Whether your goals are weight loss, cholesterol or diabetes management, or simply to learn what it means to have a healthy way of eating, I am here to help you! Together, we’ll work to uncover imbalances, restore function, and create a personalized, healthy, sustainable way of eating that will last you a lifetime focused around balance and moderation, to help you feel healthier, stronger, and closer to your goals.
Your first session with Jocelyn
If you’re reading this, you know it’s time to start taking your health seriously. In our first session, we’ll review your medical history, lifestyle habits, food preferences and goals. We will discuss some very important basic nutrition education concepts such as macronutrient metabolism and discuss how the foods you eat impact your metabolism, energy levels, food cravings, and inflammation in your body. We will collectively create realistic and attainable goals to work on and develop a personalized plan that’s tailored to you. I’ve helped thousands of people bridge the gap between understanding the importance of healthy nutrition and overall health. Let me help make this journey towards health and healing a positive one! Reserve your appointment with me today by clicking the time that works best for you. I look forward to helping you along your wellness journey to a healthier and happier you! I can’t wait to meet you. See you soon! 🙂

Hobbies
Outside of work, my Fiancé and I love exploring new places with our 2 amazing pups named Lotus and Isla 🐶, going scuba diving/boating 🐟, going to local farmer's markets, practicing yoga 🪷, listening to music 🎶 and going to concerts 💃, making macrame plant-hangers and yoga mat straps 🪴, and recently just started getting into candle making 🕯️. I also love the occasional, must-needed chill, TV night with a glass of wine, candles lit and my reality TV shows such as Dancing with the Starz and The Bachelor - I just can’t help myself! 🥰
