Before working with Jessica, I was severely depressed about my weight and I was feeling very insecure and sad most of the time. Feeling very alone and at the bottom of my rope, I booked a session with her. I needed help to put my frustration about my weight in the right place. I was looking for coping skills and ways to help me lose the weight.

I gained many benefits from working with Jessica. I learned coping skills, gained new ideas for snacks and meals and I also learned to give myself a break and not constantly focus on my weight. I would recommend the sessions to others who have a less than ideal relationship with food and those who would like to clean up their eating.

I was ready to start some new behaviors regarding diet and new regimens in my self-care. Of course, I wanted to lose some weight, but I knew there were emotional imbalances holding me back, that kept me from exercising and taking better care of myself.

In the very first meeting, Jessica took the time to get to know me in all areas of my life. She took notes, asked questions and made simple suggestions, like a series of simple exercises that I now do daily, in the comfort of my living room that has made a huge difference for me. I am now on track to having the health wealth I have been missing for the last 10 years of my life. I am so grateful and blessed to have Jessica as my health coach! Feel free to call me and ask me for yourself!

My experience with Jessica was refreshing and helpful – I was able to be vulnerable and dive deep into the mind, body and soul. Jessica is an amazing listener, very intuitive, and knows exactly what to say to help in all these areas of my life.

I gained understanding and awareness about my eating habits, nutrition, and to be present each time I eat. I recognized my body is sacred and eating with good intentions make for a beautiful eating experience.

Jessica is a beautiful soul. She has so much knowledge and passion about what she is doing and can see what you need in a short time.

Working with Jessica DeBoer has been a wonderful experience. In addition to being knowledgeable and well credentialed, she creates a safe and supportive environment within which to explore and work. I found “opening-up” with her to be very easy. She’s an outstanding listener, she’s non-judgmental, and she provides excellent behavioral alternatives.

I have learned behavioral changes are difficult. Regardless, Jessica is patient and she even makes trying new behaviors fun. A willingness to try and to practice new behaviors is a very helpful component toward accomplishing behavioral change. There is no magic bullet, or pill, to healthy eating and weight management. However, if you’re willing to explore deeply ingrained thoughts and behaviors, both conscious and unconscious, and to accept and practice behavioral changes, I highly recommend Eating Psychology Coach, Jessica DeBoer.

For 15 years, I've been sludging through the 'challenge' of eating well. There have been far too many diets, disappointments, struggles, and doubts. Finally reaching a plateau of less stress in my life, a friend suggested Jessica as an eating coach.  I thought, hey I'll try it, maybe.  Before I knew it I was looking at Jessica's website and thinking, hey I WILL try it. 

I was in a good place in my life when I started working with Jessica. But there were many old mental and physical habits to contend with like eating unconsciously, eating lots of sugar, and plenty of overeating. Jessica helped teach me to be more aware with the food, breath and pause before and while eating. Notice the colors, textures, and smells. I started eating more fat which help me dramatically reduce the sugar. With the slowing down, the attention, and the satisfaction from fats I was able to breakthrough years of suffering. Many thanks, Jessica, for sharing your enthusiastic self and believing in me.

I took Jessica’s Slow Down Diet class and would recommend it to anyone who wants to transform their eating habits, bringing consciousness to both how you eat and live.

A practice I do every day is taking 3 deep breaths before I eat. Often I pray and sometimes I just look at the trees and flowers but I always take a moment to get my body ready and full of gratitude before I eat. This is an invaluable lesson I gained from my time with Jessica. I also remember to eat slowly and not to eat in the car.  Not always easy, but important.

In these ways, the class changed my life.  Jessica is a fun, positive person and she brings this vibrant energy to the class.
