Yesenia Torres

About Yesenia

Food and family have shaped how I practice nutrition. With 25 years as a registered dietitian and a BS in Nutrition and Dietetics from the University of Puerto Rico, I blend clinical, corporate wellness, and telehealth experience to help people make lasting changes. As a bilingual, Hispanic clinician I enjoy offering culturally relevant care for Spanish-speaking patients. Outside of work you'll find me traveling, cooking new recipes with my family, or reimagining a corner of my home. I practice as a licensed, registered dietitian, and I focus on realistic, sustainable habits that fit your life.

Approach to care

Evidence guides my recommendations, and empathy shapes how we get there. I combine current research with practical, step-by-step strategies so we can translate science into your everyday routine. We work without judgment, focusing on behaviors and wellbeing rather than numbers on a scale, in line with a health at every size perspective. Together we'll set clear, achievable actions, learn why they matter, and make adjustments that last, addressing the whole person—mental, emotional, and physical—along the way.

Your first session with Yesenia

Expect a calm, collaborative conversation that leaves you reassured rather than overwhelmed. We'll review your medical history and any lab work or biometrics you bring, talk through your routines and priorities, and clarify short-term goals that feel doable. From there we'll build an initial meal plan and concrete first steps you can try. You don't need to have everything figured out beforehand, just come as you are and we'll map a practical path forward together.
