HEY, I'M DR. JENN CHRISMAN

Southern California-based Doctor of Clinical Psychology, Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner, Integrative and Functional Nutritionist, and the voice behind the Love Your Truth podcast.

I'm dedicated to helping women reclaim their life and their peace through an integrative + holistic approach that truly addresses the whole person.

Before I dive into sharing my story I would like to acknowledge and thank you for being here, and invite you to do the same. Whether or not we end up working together in any capacity, you've taken time out of your day and you found yourself here, reading my journey, in hopes that it might help you in yours. I don't take that lightly and I don't think you should either. I don't believe in coincidences. You being here reflects a part of you that knows you are meant to live a beautiful, joyous and abundant life. This life is a gift and it is meant to be experienced through all of its beauty. I know it might not always be easy to remember or believe that, especially when you're navigating challenging times or feel like you've lost yourself...but that is why I am here.

To show you that it is absolutely possible to reclaim your peace so that you can feel alive in your body and re-energized in your life. My transition from clinical psychology to Integrative Health was driven by my understanding that true healing comes from addressing the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. This journey is not just about managing symptoms; it’s about understanding the deeper, often unseen patterns that influence how we feel about ourselves and our bodies. It’s about fostering a profound connection with your body and emotions, so you can move through life with greater authenticity, confidence, and peace. A whole-person approach honors all aspects of who you are, helping you heal in ways that go beyond just the surface.

I’m a Doctor of Clinical Psychology turned Integrative Wellness Guide

After more than a decade of practice in clinical psychology, I realized that true healing isn’t achieved through one approach alone. I encountered the limitations of my early training and education and came to understand that lasting change requires a deeper, more holistic approach—one that nurtures the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. This realization, paired with losing my mom to ovarian cancer and then my own health crisis, led me to pursue a Master’s of Science in Nutrition and Integrative Health, so I could offer a comprehensive way to support your healing—focused on emotional well-being, body image, and mental health.

I blend science, experience, humor, mindset and spirituality for a unique and customized path toward healing.

I work with clients individually, diving deep into your story, and aim to be as equally committed to your path as you are.

I am a student at heart. I’m always learning and evolving, staying current with the latest research and practices to ensure my approach is as dynamic as the process of healing itself. Our understanding of the human experience is constantly changing, and I believe our healing journeys should adapt to those insights.

With my diverse training, personal life experiences, and a holistic, emotional approach, I am uniquely positioned to guide you on your own path of transformation. If you're looking for a deeper, more integrated approach to healing, I invite you to consider working with me.

I inspire my clients to...

Embrace Real Food and Simplify Your Eating: Ditch your food dogmas and diet mentality. Discover the power of nourishing your body with real food that enhances your health and vitality.

My Story: From Surviving to Thriving

From the very beginning, my life was about survival. Growing up as an only child with young, addicted parents, I learned resilience amidst chaos. My father's suicide and my mother's struggles with addiction shaped a childhood marked by homelessness, poverty, and abuse. These harsh realities instilled in me a fierce determination to escape and succeed, setting me on a relentless path of achievement.

I followed what I thought was the script for success: I excelled academically, earning a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology, built a thriving practice, and created what seemed like a perfect family life.

But beneath this facade of perfection, I was crumbling. Despite my professional expertise, I battled with a severe eating disorder, a crumbling marriage, and a deep sense of disconnection from my true self.

When my mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 2017, I was forced to confront the inadequacies of the traditional health paradigms I had long worked within. I realized that fixing symptoms wasn't enough—true healing required a holistic approach that integrated the mind, body, and spirit.

After my mom’s passing, I began exploring plant medicines and psychedelics as part of my healing process. These powerful tools helped me process the grief and trauma I carried, and they confirmed for me that healing happens through many pathways. I found that embracing these experiences gave me new insights and emotional clarity, further validating that there isn’t one single modality for healing. This belief helped me see that my approach had to be inclusive of all avenues that promote holistic well-being—spiritually, emotionally, and physically.

My mission was clear: to embrace and promote a health practice that was as holistic as it was scientific, as compassionate as it was effective.

A Turning Point: My Own Health Crisis

After stepping away from my clinical psychology practice, I encountered a personal health crisis that became the catalyst for my ultimate transformation. Despite following the conventional paths laid out by Western medicine, doctors were unable to diagnose the root cause of my suffering. Over two years, I grappled with unexplained weight gain, debilitating anxiety, brain fog, and chronic fatigue. There were moments I feared that my low blood sugar would end my life prematurely, leaving my children without their mother.

This dire situation forced me to take my healing into my own hands. I meticulously researched and deconstructed much of what I had been taught about health and nutrition. Through this journey, I discovered the intricate details of metabolic pathways and how to truly optimize my health. Through this experience of reclaiming my life, I realized that traditional healthcare alone couldn't fully address the complexity of human health and well-being.

My transformation reinforced the importance of a whole-person approach to health, where physical, emotional, and mental well-being all work in harmony. It also became clear that the conventional understanding of nutrition and health needed to be expanded.

Driven by this life-altering experience, I decided to return to school to pursue a Master's of Science degree to gain the formal education in Nutrition and Integrative Health that I needed to not only continue my healing journey but also to support others in navigating their own.

But, as I moved further into the field of functional nutrition, I found that it too had its own set of limitations. Like many systems, it can be too narrowly focused on just the physical—leaving the emotional, spiritual, and psychological aspects out of the equation.

I realized that I couldn't fit myself, or my clients, into a box.

Today, I help women understand their body’s innate wisdom, build emotional resilience, and reconnect with their true selves. This work is about empowering you to heal from the inside out, to live authentically, and to create lasting transformation in your life.

Whether through the Love Your Truth podcast or one-on-one consultations, I am committed to helping individuals reclaim their health, rediscover joy, and find the peace they deserve.

This journey isn’t just about what I teach—it’s about what I live. My own transformation from a silent sufferer to a vibrant advocate for holistic health underscores every interaction I have with my clients.

I see you. You’re not alone.

Together, we can step off the hamster wheel of transient remedies and step into a life of genuine wellness and profound fulfillment.

You are my people.

"I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become." -Carl Jung

I'm all about

Embracing the sweetness of my inner child who loves rainbows and glitter. Dance parties with the ones I love. Losing myself in a book. And spending obnoxious amounts of time in the quiet moments of stillness.

I'm not about

Being told what to do, especially if it doesn't make sense, my intuition knows best. Loud noises or anything that rattles my nervous system and disrupts my peace.

WE MAY BE THE PERFECT FIT IF...

You recognize your own power and can envision what's possible for yourself, but need some guidance to fully unlock it. You're ready to take proactive steps towards holistic well-being but aren't quite sure where to begin.

Perhaps you've improved certain aspects of your health or lifestyle, but you still don't feel fully vibrant or completely well.

You are open-minded and committed to the journey of personal transformation.

You're ready to explore the emotional, mental, and relational aspects of healing that impact your overall well-being.
