Jessica Bauer
IWC (Integrated Wellbeing Community / 'Where communities matter')
About
Jessica is happy to assess and treat all conditions as they present but has a special interest in the treatment of eating disorders and disordered eating and ARFID, and paediatric nutrition (such as but not limited to fussy eating, ASD, poor growth, and disabilities). She has extensive knowledge and skills in the area of nutrition for children and fussy eating, ADHD, autism, poor growth and weight management. She loves working with children and their families, exploring the world of food with them and supporting parents in feeding their child.
Jessica is also very passionate about working with people dealing with eating disorders. She is trained as a Credentialed Eating Disorder Clinician and has extensive experience in this area. She understands how delicate this area is, and she works very closely with people who are living with an eating disorder and their families to support their recovery.
Approach: Collaborative, non-judgmental, individualised; practical and achievable goals; works closely with clients and their families; sensitive approach especially for eating disorders
Weight Loss Approach
Practical and achievable strategies tailored to the individual; anti-diet-fad philosophy; does not use restrictive diets or weight-loss hacks; works collaboratively with clients; includes 'Healthy at Every Size' as a service area
Bariatric surgery (pre and post-op management) is offered by the team (primarily Chloe Bauer); Jessica Bauer's profile does not specifically highlight bariatric support but the practice offers it
