Jacquelynn Cooper

About Jacquelynn

Health and curiosity have always guided my life. With a BS in Nutrition and Dietetics and ten years practicing as a Registered Dietitian, I’ve worked across private practice, hospital settings, and residential and outpatient treatment for eating disorders, mental health, and substance use. As a Certified Eating Disorders Specialist, I help chronic dieters and people with gut issues find sustainable, peaceful eating by reconnecting with their own body wisdom. When I'm not with clients, I'm usually baking sourdough, reading fantasy and sci-fi, singing or spending time outdoors.

Approach to care

Evidence and compassion shape how I work. I use current research to inform clear, practical steps while centering your lived experience, so we'll translate science into strategies that fit your life. My approach is weight-neutral and aligned with Health At Every Size, focused on behaviors and sustainable habits rather than numbers. We'll address the whole person, including emotional and lifestyle factors, and I'll teach skills and offer direct, nonjudgmental accountability as we build long-term change together.

Your first session with Jacquelynn

In our first visit we’ll have a calm, thorough conversation that centers your story. I will dive into your relationship with food, review medical history, and ask about digestion, routines, and what has or hasn't worked. Building trust is my priority, so there’s no pressure to have everything figured out. Together we'll set one or two realistic, science-informed steps to try, leaving you with a clear, sustainable plan that feels manageable and respectful of your body wisdom.
