Ladies, have you been experiencing mental health concerns but are concerned that you will be prescribed medications that may have adverse effects?  You feel as if your mood is controlled by your menstrual cycle, and it has become more severe over time?  Feeling frustrated when you try to talk to your physician about your hormonal imbalances but no one will listen? During my 20+ years of practice, I have dealt with all of these problems personally or professionally.  

I treat:

• Depression and Mood Swings
• Anxiety and Panic Attacks 
• Adrenal Imbalances
• Chronic Fatigue
• Candida
• Heavy Metal Toxicity
• Detoxification Impairment
• Food Allergies and Sensitivities
• Leaky Gut, Gastrointestinal issues
• Neurotransmitter Imbalance

 

It is my goal to offer women an alternative to taking another pill or being silenced because every test comes back as “normal.” Western medicine alone is not doing an adequate job with regard to women’s health in general, let alone mental health. In my practice, I view women as “whole beings” rather than as parts.  This is more of an alternative, integrative, or functional medicine approach. As a result of this approach, mental health is addressed by evaluating and treating both the mind and the body.  I combine conventional medical and psychiatric diagnosis with complementary methods, which can include therapy, nutritional evaluation, genetic testing, and/or supplements. In this way, I aim to promote wellness through nutrition, exercise, spirituality, and mind-body health. I tailor my treatment to the individual patient’s unique environment, spirituality, medical, and genetic needs. I believe that every patient deserves dignity and respect, realizing that they are greater than their current mental health challenges. It is my honor and privilege to work closely with patients and their families in order to reach their full health potential.

If you are looking for mental health care that addresses you as a whole individual and fully evaluates your needs, you have come to the right place. Don’t continue to just take “pills for every ill” but consider the root cause for the problem and address that problem head on. Let’s begin your journey to mental wellness and balance.
