Hello! My name is Jesse Castle, and I am deeply passionate about nutrition and healthcare. With 18 years of dedicated experience in the field, I have had the privilege of helping countless adults and teens transform their lives through Nutritional Therapy for Optimal Wellness. 

I take pride in empowering people to learn healthy eating habits while also providing strategies to manage stress effectively. My goal is to guide my clients not only towards achieving their health goals but also towards developing a sustainable lifestyle that promotes long-term well-being.

Together, with my amazing team of nutritional therapists we have created a space that is inclusive, compassionate and supportive. We became the group leaders we needed when we were teens and together we are encouraging today’s youth to take their health into their own hands by making healthy choices. Learning to incorporate balance, hydration and essential nutrients into their everyday habits so they can live their best lives free of chronic illness and poor health outcomes.

Background

Jesse began Health Coaching in 2011 for an interventional Cardiologist's weight loss clinic in Northern Arizona. Working with many people who suffer from Type 2 Diabetes, Hypertension, and addiction, she realized very quickly that this is the field she wanted to be in. Jesse fell in love with the work, and I wanted to gain more knowledge in the healthcare and mental health field, help inspire and educate people in reaching their goals, and give individuals the tools they need to live their healthiest life. She always loved helping people, and that made this line of work such a natural fit for her.
 A few years and thousands of pounds later, Jesse met and coached an amazing woman who would change her life forever. Her story inspired an opportunity for Jesse to help open the first successful nutrition clinic on Tribal Land in Arizona. As a Clinic Director/ Nutritionist, she was extremely proud of the success that so many of the people she worked with accomplished and the sacrifices people made to overcome health challenges and regain their life back.

Over the past 15 years, Jesse has taught several healthy eating and weight management classes for 50+ communities in Arizona and successfully helped countless individuals reach their healthy goals naturally. She is a certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and is furthering her education in disordered eating.

Jesse and her team is currently working with 20+ mental health facilities in various counties in California.
Essential Nutrition for Optimal Health was created to utilize the holistic foundations of health for teenagers in mental health recovery, and individuals in substance use recovery.
