I own a private practice Mind Body Nutrition, PLLC where I specialize in reproductive nutrition and disordered eating. I also work at the University of Washington as a clinic dietitian in women’s health and I am an adjunct faculty member. I teach Nutrition counseling and maternal nutrition to our GCPD (Graduate Coordinated Program in Dietetics) students. I am honored to also precept and mentor them.

We assess the individual and their goals. I let the client experiment as I tell them, “Your body knows what it needs, we just need to listen.” RDs also tend to be respectful of other professions and don’t cross those professional lines. You can be a jack of all trades, but a master of none.

In an ideal world, the profession of dietetics would increase in diversity substantially, particularly on the basis of gender, race and ethnicity. We would have dietetics professionals available to serve and relate to all American residents, and to lead nutrition-focused businesses that meet the needs of consumers. The healthcare industry would acknowledge the value that dietitians play in healthcare in every state; dietitians would be eligible for reimbursement for a robust list of disease prevention and management services and dietitians would be able to write diet and nutrition-related orders in all clinical facilities.

My education includes 2 Bachelors (BASc. in Nutrition and BSc in psychology) and a Masters of Applied Nutrition (MAN) that included various internships. I continue to educate myself through self-directed learning and also through attending various conferences in my areas of specialty/interest.

When I work with patients I help them build a positive relationship with food and their bodies through understanding how food functions in the body. I love explaining biochemistry in a way that makes sense.

David Wiss MS RDN

I think people automatically assume I do weight loss, as many people still assume that is what nutrition is about. The concept of “nutrition for mental health” has not gotten mainstream yet.
