Testimonials
“Jennifer is an exceptional dietitian and nutritionist! From the very first session, I felt an instant connection with her. She’s professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about her clients. She always took the time to thoroughly answer all my questions and provided thoughtful, personalized feedback that helped me make real progress.One thing I especially appreciated was the detailed, copious notes she took for me during our sessions. These notes made it so convenient to go back and review everything at my own pace, ensuring I stayed on track. She also provided me with fantastic resources that were tailored to my goals and made a huge difference in my journey. I’ve learned so much from her expertise and am already seeing amazing results. What truly sets Jennifer apart is her wealth of experience—over 10 years in the field—and her ability to make you feel supported every step of the way.
If you’re looking for a highly experienced, compassionate, and insightful dietitian, I cannot recommend Jennifer enough. She’s absolutely fantastic, and I’m confident you won’t be disappointed!”

“Jennifer was great to work with. She listened well and provided excellent, practical advice that was aligned to my nutritional goals and lifestyle. She didn’t push me to change my whole nutrition approach with an unsustainable diet. Instead, she taught me how I could nutritionally improve my go-to meals and make better food choices. She also followed up our online sessions by providing helpful handouts and a written summary of what we talked about. ”

"Working with Jennifer is not work at all! It's like having your morning coffee with a friend. She is kind, extremely knowledgeable and encouraging! I needed help/assistance/encouragement in the food arena of my health journey and she has done that and so much more! One of my favorite things that I tell her all the time is that she has NEVER told me to not eat something. We are building habits surrounding a healthy lifestyle while also being realistic about life! Any questions I bring to our sessions are met with non-judgmental and educational answers. She has helped me to understand truly fueling your body versus just eating to eat. One of the many suggestions that has helped me is adding my collagen protein to my morning coffee. It was a quick habit to start and gave me just a little extra protein in the morning. We also talk supplements whenever I ask about them but she does not push anything on you. She truly creates a safe space and I have never felt overwhelmed or pressured to do anything I'm not comfortable with. I HIGHLY recommend anyone considering working with a dietician to try Jennifer, she's absolutely wonderful!"
