About The Founder: David Wiss, PhD, RDN, IFMCP

Dr. David Wiss advocates for change and improvement in the emerging fields of nutrition and behavioral health. Being an Institute of Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner (IFMCP), Dr. Wiss combines nutrition with lifestyle medicine to address underlying causes rather than treat symptoms. He is committed to a comprehensive assessment process to help you connect the dots about your health.

As a leading Mental Health Nutritionist in Los Angeles, Dr. Wiss has spent over 10,000 hours conducting one-on-one nutrition counseling to clients and families in-person and virtually. His treatment philosophy is based on a biopsychosocial model that incorporates an understanding of biological mechanisms, psychological underpinnings, and contextual factors, constantly integrating the social and commercial determinants of health. Dr. Wiss has over 20 peer-reviewed publications on these topics.

Dr. Wiss aims to help his clients in their quest for optimal wellness by improving their relationship with food and body. He can serve as your nutrition and health consultant, functional medicine practitioner (offering various tests), recovery coach, or provide psychoeducation related to his areas of expertise. Dr. Wiss will create a safe space for you to discuss your health in an environment that is inclusive and non-judgmental. There are several options to work with him directly or with one of the dietitians on his team.
