“I started seeing Jess in October of 2021. At that time, I was very hesitant to make an effort towards recovery as I did not want to admit that I had a problem. Jess met me where I was. She has pushed me out of my comfort zone, yet I have never felt forced to do anything I did not want to do. Through the last 2.5 years, Jess has helped me realize what I actually want, which is recovery. She calls me out on any bullshit I try and helps me identify what I want vs. what my eating disorder wants. I am not my eating disorder. It is not my identity. And I do not believe I would confidently be able to say that without Jess by my side. When I take a step back, she is there to push me forward again. Whether the session ends with tears, laughs, or anything in between, I am confident that I am not fighting my fight alone. I cannot thank her enough for the support I’ve received.”

“When I initially began my sessions with Jessica, I made it clear that I had no intentions of seeking recovery and did not believe it was possible. I was only attending these sessions to appease my mother and give the appearance of being alright. Over time, however, Jessica managed to see through my defenses and became a significant source of support for me. One year ago, I found myself in the most challenging state I had ever been in, both mentally and physically, and completely gave up on myself. Unfortunately, recovery will never come unless you want it for yourself, but Jessica helps individuals find that desire. She holds onto hope for you until you can do the same. Jessica has a deep understanding of the distinction between my true self and my eating disorder self, and she recognized when a higher level of care was necessary. Even after I returned from treatment, Jessica continued to be there for me, and as a result, I have become the best version of myself that I have ever known. While I certainly put in significant effort and endured various hardships throughout my recovery journey, I would not have even attempted it if it weren't for Jessica. For this, I am incredibly grateful.”

“This is the first time I have ever worked with a dietician and it has been the best experience so far! Jessica creates a welcoming and safe environment to talk about vulnerable topics. She also understands that everyone’s needs are different and adjusts to your personal goals, while still keeping you accountable. In a short span of time, I can already see self growth within myself. I couldn’t recommend her enough, she’s the best!”

“Jessica is AMAZING. When I came to her I had given up complete control. I threw my hands up and said if this doesn’t work I don’t think anything else will. I have gone through eating disorders, extreme restriction, binging, tracking macros and calories, trying 8 week diets, 30 day diets, fasting, cutting foods out, veganism and gluten free diets. I tried fat loss pills and juice cleanses. I have beat my body up through exercise as punishment, extreme cardio sessions to try to burn off the guilt calories. Nothing worked. Until I finally came around to accepting that maybe I just needed to learn my body again, connect instead of control, fuel instead of restrict, and nurture instead of punish. Jessica helped me logically and emotionally come around to intuitively eating, learn how to eat smart and timely while also listening to my cues, and help me come into a body once again that I love and appreciate - even though it is not the thinnest / “fittest” i’ve been. I feel so content and at peace in my own skin, and while i’m not 100% healed or I am not “body shame (toward myself) free” I owe it all to Jessica and my trust in her, and i can confidently say I feel freedom around food. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“I highly recommend Jessica as a dietician, especially if you have a history of disordered eating! She is non-judgmental, knowledgeable, and flexible. She is excellent about promoting health in an anti-diet culture way. I was afraid that working with a dietician would trigger me, but Jessica was amazing. She’s helped improve my physical and mental health”

“I’ve struggled with anorexia for 8 years and have seen dietitian after dietitian, cycling in and out of treatment centers unable to find someone who was a match for the tricks my eating disorder liked to play .… that is until I met Jess. From our very first session I could tell my eating disorder had met its match — she wouldn’t let my eating disorder walk all over her as it’s done with so many others. Jess creates a safe space for me to express my anxieties and fears — and rejoices with me in my triumphs. She holds space for my eating disorder to talk, but never lets it take control of the session. She reminds me of who I am and who I want to be outside of my eating disorder and what steps I’ve taken to further my recovery — no matter how small. Jess has truly been able to meet me where I’m at and celebrate even the smallest victories, while also empowering me to keep pushing myself. Since having Jess as my dietitian, I’ve spent the longest time away from treatment and have realized I am strong enough to let go of my eating disorder. I am forever grateful to have found Jess who has always been there to keep me accountable and who has helped me realize the power and light I have within myself.”

“I've always considered myself to have a healthy diet and activity level. I gained quite a bit of weight after surgery, and was disappointed when my usual methods weren't working. Jessica has helped me tremendously in my weight loss journey. She has helped me set attainable goals that have helped me to achieve my pre-surgery weight. I have learned a lot from her that I continue to incorporate into my daily lifestyle.”

I started seeing Jessica near the beginning of summer in 2022 and continued to see her almost weekly for the next year and a half. As someone with ADHD I struggle to find consistency with certain areas as it pertains to food and water, basically remembering I need both to function. Jessica has been phenomenal at helping me find solutions every time, even if it's a repeat 'offense' (like still not drinking enough water or remembering water exists). She is also a wonderful human and not judgemental at all. I was never made to feel bad for not achieving goals. Even if I didn't meet my goals for the previous week, she adjusts and we would make a new set of goals. She works with you and helps you work on what you want to work on. She doesn't make goals or anything without your input. Some weeks we met, we just talked and it's been nice to have that too, so not every session was always about diet/nutrition/goals. I felt comfortable and like I could just be myself around her. Jessica is a caring, energetic, positive, and helpful person. 10/10 would recommend! 5 stars!
