If you've ever felt exhausted by food rules, overwhelmed or confused by conflicting nutrition advice, or disconnected from your body's own wisdom, you're not alone. Healing your relationship with food isn't about finding the "perfect" diet—it's about rebuilding trust in yourself.

I'm Jessica Franks, MA, RDN, founder of The Flow Dietitian. As a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with more than 10 years of experience and a yoga teacher with over four years of mindfulness training, I help individuals find a more peaceful, flexible relationship with food while supporting their physical health. Whether you're navigating an eating disorder, digestive concerns, hormonal changes, or women's health concerns, my goal is to help you feel more at home in your body.

I believe our bodies are incredibly wise. Over time, chronic dieting, illness, trauma, stress, and the constant pressure to "eat perfectly" can disconnect us from that wisdom. My mission is to help you return to your body—to reconnect with your inherent intuition around food and movement, cultivate greater ease and self-trust, and ultimately find more flow in your life. Even when managing a medical condition, I believe nutrition can feel supportive rather than restrictive.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and evidence-based. I practice from a non-diet, weight-inclusive perspective, recognizing that there is no one-size-fits-all path to health. Together we'll explore not only what you're eating, but also the beliefs, emotions, experiences, and patterns that have shaped your relationship with food. Rather than giving you another list of rules to follow, my role is to help you uncover what works best for your unique body, values, and life.

While my professional training has equipped me with the knowledge to provide individualized nutrition care, my personal experiences have deepened my empathy. I have lived experience with trauma, chronic health challenges, infertility, and recovery from a longstanding eating disorder. Those experiences allow me to meet clients with genuine compassion and hope. I know how isolating these struggles can feel, and I also know that healing is possible.

Above all, I want our work together to help you spend less time thinking about food and more time living a life that feels meaningful, connected, and fulfilling.

When I'm not working with clients, you'll likely find me reading, camping, road biking, snowboarding, practicing yoga, cooking, tending to my 50+ houseplants, or spending time with my two cats.
