About Yissel
Hi, I'm Yissel, MA, RDN/LD, I’m a registered dietitian with clinical hospital experience, and I earned my MA in Dietetics from the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences and Bachelor's in Food Science from East Central University. During my free time, I enjoy trying new recipes, reading, gardening, and spending time with my 3 dogs.
Approach to care
My approach is patient-centered care, I want you to be the center of our sessions and I am there to guide you and help you. I will meet you where you are at, whether that means setting "baby steps" towards your long-term goals, providing you with nutrition education, helping you understand how your nutrition impacts your health, and building a good relationship with food!
Your first session with Yissel
Our first session is focuses on getting to know you. We’ll review your medical history, talk about your daily routines, and look over lab work or biometrics that matter for your goals. Together we’ll establish short-term goals that feel doable and meaningful, and we’ll outline practical steps to start right away. You don’t need to have everything figured out before we meet.
