Health Professionals near Valencia, PA

I am a women's health dietitian specializing in the unique nutritional needs of women across the lifespan. My areas of expertise include weight management, PCOS, fertility, pregnancy and postpartum, hormones, and digestive health.

I am dual-trained in both traditional Chinese medicine and conventional medicine. I have been practicing in the fields of Integrated Medicine and Oriental Medicine for more than 20 years. More than 15 articles of my clinical investigations and medical laboratory research have been published. Beyond clinical review, a healthcare organization links me to multiple insurance companies in which very few acupuncturists can be involved with current insurance policies.

Jessica is a Registered Dietitian who is passionate about helping people navigate the world of nutrition all while creating a happy, healthy relationship with food. Food does not replace medicine; however, she does believe that it can go a long way in preventing and managing diseases and conditions. Being “healthy” is a complex matter, which in her experience is best addressed using a holistic approach to ensure all aspects of health, such as lifestyle, food intake, access to food, stress, movement, and sleep are all being considered.

We live in a fast paced environment where there is little time for ourselves. My job is not to tell you that you can't eat certain foods but instead to try to focus on realistic behavior changes that will stick. No food rules, no "one size fits all" approach, just honest support and accountability from someone who cares about you!

As an acupuncturist I have learned to believe in the old saying that "the only time the body and mind are separate is in a dictionary". By understanding this mind body connection I strive to not only treat each person as a unique individual but also encourage each person to take an active role in their health needs.

All great Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners in history are expertise in using acupuncture and medicinal herbs together for greater effectiveness. While acupuncture has gained popularity in America, many people do not know each component has its own strength. Some conditions cannot be treated effectively without the use of herbs. When herbal treatment is used alone, it's also more affordable. With the commitment to provide effective, comprehensive and affordable treatment, I spent years in the study of medicinal herbs in addition to acupuncture. I am licensed in both acupuncture and herbology.

As a dietitian with a non-diet approach, my nutrition philosophy is rooted in intuitive eating, honoring our bodies, and experiencing joyful movement. I believe that everyone deserves a peaceful relationship with food, movement and their bodies. I work with clients who struggle with food labeling/judgements, weight-cycling and chronic dieting. Together, we will identify goals that meet your own unique needs that allow for a sustainable recovery.

Too often, I see people equating being healthy with punishing themselves. I believe your healthiest life comes not from punishment but from caring for yourself in order to live your fullest (and longest/most energetic) life possible. With a background in behavioral psychology, I encourage my clients to find ways to make changes to their diet and overall lifestyle that not only makes them healthier but also helps them to feel more alive. Physical and mental health should exist in tandem, not at odds with each other.

My ideal client comes wanting to make a change and is willing to take on some challenges to help get them to that ideal health place. We make small changes, set goals after each visit, and the client is willing to step outside of their current comfort zone and challenge themselves to change. They want better digestion, less inflammation, a more active lifestyle, improvement in performance (sports and general activity), and to achieve a more desired body type (weight loss, increase in lean mass, or general weight gain).
