A Root-Cause Approach to Healing

I’m a holistic health coach, Certified Nutritional Practitioner (CNP), and thyroid cancer survivor who knows what it’s like to feel unwell and unheard. Through functional testing and a root-cause approach, I help you uncover what’s really going on beneath the surface — so you can start healing, feel empowered, and come back home to your body.

“Working with Jennifer was a game changer in my health journey. She took the time to listen to my concerns, ask the right questions, and create a personalized protocol that was built around my needs. Following her advice changed my life.”

Welcome!

I’m Jennifer Stevens: the face behind JDS Holistic Health. Before becoming a Certified Nutritional Practitioner (CNP) through the Institute of Holistic Nutrition, I spent years knowing something was wrong but never getting the answers I needed. I bounced from doctor to doctor, only to be told my labs were “normal.” Yet, I struggled with chronic fatigue, relied on coffee to function, had difficulty concentrating, battled IBS, felt constantly swollen and inflamed, and was overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, and depression. It wasn’t until my thyroid cancer diagnosis in 2019 that I finally started uncovering the deeper imbalances affecting my health (gut infections, hormone dysfunction, and chronic stress being the major players). When diet and lifestyle changes alone weren’t enough, I immersed myself in holistic healing and functional nutrition. Now, I help others get to the root of their symptoms—so they can restore their energy and feel at home in their bodies again.

My expertise & Approach

Trained in Gut Health & lab interpretation

As Hippocrates said, “All disease starts in the gut.” Gut health is paramount in healing, so I offer GI Map stool tests and interpretation for my clients.

thyroid dysfunction & Autoimmunity

With my own thyroid cancer journey and continued education courses in autoimmunity, I’m passionate about helping clients with hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s.

personalized nutrition & coaching

There is no one-size-fits-all plan for healing. In my practice, everyone gets individualized protocols and coaching sessions.

I offer a 12-week program designed to get to the root of your symptoms so you can heal from the inside out. Through deep conversations, comprehensive diet and blood work analysis and functional testing, we’ll uncover what’s really going on in your body. I’ll guide you in nourishing your system, balancing stress, and restoring gut and thyroid function—so you can reclaim your energy and feel like yourself again, naturally.
