Alyssa Poythress, RD

Hi, I’m Alyssa Poythress, a Registered Dietitian with over four years of experience helping individuals from all walks of life build healthier, more sustainable relationships with food. I’ve worked with more than 1,000 clients ranging in age from 18 to 100+, and I specialize in creating personalized nutrition care that is inclusive, culturally respectful, and evidence-based.

​

Originally from the South, I understand the deep connection between food, tradition, and community. I believe that nutrition guidance should never mean sacrificing your cultural identity. My approach blends clinical knowledge with real-world flexibility—helping you make meaningful changes without judgment or rigid rules. Whether you're managing a chronic condition, working toward specific wellness goals, or just trying to feel better in your body, I'm here to support you every step of the way.

​

Outside of work, I love exploring local food spots, spending time outdoors, and connecting with others through shared meals and stories. I bring that same warmth and curiosity to every session, creating a safe and supportive space for you to feel heard and empowered.

​

My mission is simple: to meet you where you are and help you move forward in a way that feels right for you.
