About Me

Hi, I'm Jenna! I was born with anaphylactic food allergies and have managed them for my entire life. I started this blog in 2018 when I was recovering from an anaphylactic reaction and searching for a source of community in my struggles with managing my allergies. I realized that I enjoyed creating allergy-friendly recipes and sharing all of the tips I had learned over the years to help me live my best life with severe food allergies, so this blog quickly became a huge source of motivation and joy for me.

​

Through my own struggles with mental health and food allergies, I found that there was a lack of allergy-informed therapists near me. This pushed me to go to school to become an allergy-informed therapist. I'm proud to say that I graduated with my Master of Social Work in 2023 and am currently working as a therapist. Additionally, I launched my food allergy coaching business in 2023! I believe my lived experience as someone with food allergies combined with my clinical knowledge as a social worker will allow me to help people gain a sense of control and confidence in managing their allergies. 

​

I just joined a private practice in Southern California where I will be able to see teen and adult clients struggling with food allergy mental health and other chronic illnesses. Stay tuned for more details on that! 

​

I look forward to connecting with you on your journey!
