Hi, I’m Jacs Scheinman (he/him)—a registered dietitian and co-founder of Food 4 Thought Nutrition, PLLC. I specialize in compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming support for neurodivergent, queer, and chronically ill individuals—especially those navigating disordered eating, ARFID, or complex medical and digestive conditions. If traditional nutrition advice hasn’t worked for your brain or body, you’re not alone—and you’re not broken.
Ideal Clients/Folks I work with: Neurodivergent folks (ADHD, Autistic) feeling stuck in all-or-nothing eating patterns, inconsistent eating, or food burnout. Parents of neurodivergent kids facing picky eating challenges needing support beyond "just try one bite" Chronically ill clients balancing fatigue, flare-ups, and real-world nourishment
I provide compassionate, affirming support that works with your brain, your body, and your lived experience. Together, we’ll develop realistic, flexible strategies for eating that honor your sensory profile, energy levels, medical needs, and values—not someone else’s version of “healthy.”

I specialize in supporting folks of all genders with eating disorders, feeding differences, and intersecting identities such as neurodivergence and chronic illness. Eating is dynamic, it doesn't fit into one box, and neither should your care plan.
