Nutritionists and Dietitians near Sacramento, CA

I have over 20 years experience as a Registered Dietitian with a master's degree in Public Health Nutrition (MPH). I also have a bachelor's degree in Exercise Physiology and am a Certified Personal Trainer through the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM). I focus on the whole person and want to help you achieve a healthy lifestyle with an evaluation of current exercise and eating habits; assessment of labs, medications, and supplements; discussion of medical conditions; and goal setting for your particular concerns. Let me help you be the best you can be!

Do you feel confused and overwhelmed by what to eat? Have you been feeling "off" for so long you can't remember what normal feels like? Are you struggling with gas, bloating, diarrhea, heartburn, and/or constipation? I provide supportive nutrition counseling for gut problems. I help adults and children who struggle with digestive issues, such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Small Intestinal Overgrowth (SIBO), Candida overgrowth, Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), Celiac Disease, and food allergies. We will get to the root of the problem so you can eat with freedom and comfort.

Jessica specializes in working with PCOS, Disordered/Eating Disorders, Infertility Nutrition, Pre/Post Partum, Hormonal Imbalances, and other areas. She believes that a diet should not only support someone’s physical health, but their social, emotional, and mental health as well. She works with her clients to identify their goals, understand their lifestyle and preferences, and create a plan that fits their unique needs. Jessica also recognizes that food is more than just fuel for the body – it is often tied to emotions, memories, and cultural traditions. As such, she helps her clients to build a positive relationship with food.

Are you dealing with IBS, depression, anxiety, or disordered eating? Do you want to heal your gut without restrictive diets? Do you find yourself fearful of food because you’re not sure what will cause symptoms? Have you noticed the powerful impact your mental health and wellness has on your gut symptoms, and vice versa?

For the past 30 years, I have helped thousands of clients with their diet-related challenges in this country and abroad. Working in hospitals and my own private practice, I use evidence-based practices in Diabetes Care, Gestational Diabetes, Post Acute Rehab, Skilled Nursing and Renal Care. My years of relevant experience allows me to create a custom nutrition program for your unique health goals. In addition to the science of nutrition, I am an expert on foods of different palates and ethnicities. I am a specialist in vegan, vegetarian and diets related to food intolerances.

Navigating the nutrition world can be overwhelming! As a Registered Dietitian (RD) I aim to help clients optimize their health based on individual need. Many people have an underlying inflammatory condition, nutrient deficiency, and/or unhealthy gut that causes issues such as IBS, migraines, joint pain, skin issues, depression, behavioral issues, fatigue, and weight management issues. If you have a new or chronic condition, underlying health issues, or just want to achieve optimal health through your diet...I am your Dietitian!

Do you find yourself confused on what foods trigger your bloating? Have that uncomfortable feeling in your gut that doens't feel right? Do you find yourself uncomfortable because of excess bloating and gas? As a Registered Dietitian I can help you support your goals - either lowering your blood sugar to reverse diabetes or find the ROOT cause of your gut issue. I help my clients reverse their diabetes naturally and figure out their ROOT cause for their bloating, gas, or constipation!

I love helping people with diabetes make sense of the condition and ultimately overcome it! Type 2 diabetes reversal IS possible (despite what other health professionals may have said), and it can be done naturally, with real food, minimizing the need for medications and supplements.
