I have been in private practice since 2005. Prior and while in private practice I had the amazing opportunity of working at one of the leading eating disorder centers in the US. At the inpatient facility I developed a passion for counseling patients to eat healthy and feel comfortable with food and their bodies. In the course of those years I designed and ran many groups including emotional eating, mindful eating, nutrition education, grocery tours, and eating out.

 
I got a Master in Science in Clinical Nutrition from New York University and received my bachelor degree in nutrition in the Universidad Central de Venezuela. I’m Certified Eating Disorders Registered Dietitian by International Associations of Eating Disorders Professionals (IAEDP) and Certified in Adult Weight Management by the American Dietetic Association. She worked at St. Vincent's Hospital in Manhattan providing clinical nutrition care to countless patients in need. While working in Venezuela at a state-run hospital, Jessica helped children from low income families achieve adequate and well-balanced meals. She often provides nutrition lectures to pregnant and breastfeeding women and offered nutrition education to diabetic and cardiovascular disease patients. 
I had appeared in “Despierta America”, a morning show in Univision, to educate the public on eating disorders. During each appearance, I was able to offer public awareness on when to seek support, how to provide support, the struggles and signs of an eating disorder and the importance of seeking help on time.
