Mary-Jennifer Hanlon

About Mary-Jennifer

I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with a strong experience in Clinical Nutrition and Nutrition Education. My career has provided me with skill, knowledge and opportunity to provide nutritional care in the areas of cardiac nutrition therapy, diabetes, weight management, wellness coaching and nutrition support.

Approach to care

I believe in individualized care and engaging my clients to develop their own personal goals. Good health comes in many different shapes and sizes. I am here to guide and teach, after all knowledge is power! I believe that good nutrition is not a "one-size-fits-all", however I do encourage my clients to approach their visits with an open mind and an opportunity to learn. I believe in helping my clients throughout the process, that change does not happen overnight and education is a journey. Small steps lead to big achievements.

Your first session with Mary-Jennifer

We will use the first session to get to know each other. I will want to know foods you like and dislike, what your typical daily routine looks like and what your typical meals look like as well. We will set some small goals to work on for the next session.

Education

I attended the University of Connecticut, receiving a Bachelor of Science in Dietetics.

Hobbies

When I am not working, I can usually be found enjoying precious time with my family either in the skating rink, at an a cappella concert, or exploring various cities and towns. I love a good band, a good book or a good movie. I like to think I'm crafty and have been known to tackle a YouTube DIY now and then, however, I have not been able to become proficient at sewing in any way shape or form. I enjoy a good walk or some pilates, or some time in the pool. Lately, I have been attempting golf!
