HI! I’M JENNIFER MCGURK, A CERTIFIED EATING DISORDERS DIETITIAN AND SUPERVISOR.
I’m passionate about Intuitive Eating and eating disorder recovery, and help my clients feel fabulous about food!
I support other Registered Dietitians and healthcare professionals build their private practices specializing in Intuitive Eating because I truly believe that Registered Dietitians can help change our client’s lives. Intuitive Eating leads to intuitive living and our clients need our support and knowledge to help them live their best life.
Owning a business is hard work but so worth it when your business is making a huge impact in the world.

Meet Other Dietitians Who Have Grown Their Private Practice
From Glenys Oyston, co-host of the Dietitians Unplugged Podcast -- I wished I had done PPP before I started my practice - it would have made everything much easier.
This course is a must if you are even considering private practice, because Jennifer walks you through essentials like understanding why you want to do private practice and how you want to practice (aka figuring out your niche). Her checklists are so helpful for getting organized, something I can sometimes struggle with when the stakes feel high. Most importantly, she provided guidance on figuring out how to set my rates, something I was really floundering with! Don't start your private practice without doing PPP first - you won't regret it!
From Brianna: The additional trainings for professionals make the course even better!
"Thank you Jennifer for Feel Fabulous About Food!! I was so happy to buy the client version when it first came out and loved it but have to tell you the professional version is better ha! Nothing against what you put out there for clients but the additional trainings for professionals make the course even better and the resources section already saved me time searching for an article to give to a doctor who wanted more information on Health At Every Size. Thank you for making my life easier!! I didn't know if I wanted to sign up for another course but this one was the best decision."
From Ashley: Help Your Clients Feel Fabulous About Food IS AWESOME!
Thank you so much for all the work that you do and I just want you to know how awesome you are. These handouts are beautiful and I have given them out to a few people already and they love it. Thank you for taking really complicated issues that are sometimes hard for me to articulate with clients and just turning stuff into realistic counseling strategies. I am so thankful for all my education in intuitive eating and so happy for your course that has given me the confidence to work with clients.
From RD: My business has really taken off.
I wanted to open a private practice for a while, but I had no idea where to start and it seemed so overwhelming. The way the class is broken up into sections allows you to learn at your own pace and helps with the overwhelming feelings. I do not think it is possible to finish this and not feel more confident about starting a private practice. And if you do still have questions after listening to all the modules, the monthly phone calls are perfect for asking those questions. I highly recommend this for anyone who wants to learn more and feel more confident about starting their own practice.
From Amanda Bullat: PPP provided me with a great foundation to start my private practice.
"It was helpful to have the information presented in many ways through group calls, handouts, and the video modules. Jennifer's attention to detail, support, and overall guiding compassion truly sets this program apart from other "get started in private practice" programs."
From Clara Quadra: PPP was such a great investment.
Jennifer is a wonderful teacher, mentor, and resource. Her course information was easy to navigate, understand, and apply to real life. After completing the course, I felt prepared to embark on my journey of starting my own private practice. However, the best part of the PPP package is the private facebook community and monthly follow-ups/check-in/workshops. The group is filled with RDs at all stages of private practice and are able to provide their insight, and the ability to ask questions to such a knowledgeable group is invaluable. 10/10 would recommend PPP with Jennifer.
