Hi! I'm a registered dietitian and a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor with experience working with patients from diverse backgrounds and settings.

Nutrition information can be confusing and often inaccurate. We enjoy working with clients to simplify and normalize the relationship with food. We facilitate the process of growing to trust the self and the body, and block out the diet culture nonsense. We use the scientific knowledge of nutrition and biology blended with experience to address underlying issues that cause weight and eating struggles.

Are you tired of being in pain? Are you being told that drugs or surgery are your only options? Do you miss playing with your grandkids or participating in the sports you used to? Are you tired of hearing "oh, you are just getting older. ?" Pain and disease do not need to be a normal part of the aging process. Your body can heal itself, with a little help. We both have gone through a similar experience and you know what? It is amazing to have our lives back. We understand the frustration you are going through.

I am comfortable helping folks with anything painful that they can't quite work through on their own. Whether it's emotional, physical, or trauma-related, I have the skill set to work with a wide range of problems. My primary goal is to help people develop the capacity for all of their experiences, whether it's life transitions, chronic pain, autoimmune, or new pain patterns: issues with the head, neck, shoulders, TMJ, ribs, stomach, sacrum, low back, pelvis/glutes, or legs. A lot of my clients improve and get better from problems that haven't been resolved with other therapists or modalities.

My ideal clients are adults who have been dealing with ongoing health issues and feel like nothing has fully added up yet. They may struggle with digestion, fatigue, anxiety or low mood, skin issues, inflammation, or symptoms that seem to affect multiple areas of the body at once. Often, they’ve tried conventional care or standard nutrition approaches and are still looking for answers. What they want most is to understand why they feel the way they do and to work with someone who looks at the whole picture rather than treating one symptom at a time.

It is not often we are encouraged to honor our bodies needs. We live in world that teaches us to "watch it" and "have it together", especially around weight and food. Unfortunately, this constant pressure to "be good" can play a role in constant dieting, restricting, binging, purging and an all or nothing attitude around exercise. Fortunately, we can make peace with food and our bodies again. Our approach of trauma informed nutrition counseling and coaching teaches non-diet eating and body wisdom skills to learn to trust and feel safe inside the body and manage chronic issues such as burned and stressed out, PCOS and gut health.

My work centers on understanding you as an individual, your needs, your culture, your preferences, and your health goals. I believe nutrition care works best when you are actively involved in the process, so I prioritize shared decision-making and goal setting that feels realistic and meaningful to you.

I am Jingyu Gu, PhD & Lic. Acu. My acupuncture practice started in 1972 in Shanghai. I founded the Taiji & Qigong Meditation Center and Wellspring Acupuncture & Holistic Health Clinic. My patients receive not only standard acupuncture and herbal treatments but also instruction on therapeutic taiji and qigong exercises. This harmonious and holistic treatment paradigm is the highest often hard-to-reach level of therapy in the TCM tradition. I taught these subjects in the Texas College of TCM (TX Health & Science Univ.) as well to acupuncturists for their CEU and served on the Texas State Board of Acupuncture Examiners for 5 years.
