What is Integrative Mental Health Medicine?

 

Mental health integrative medicine  uses the relationship between the body and the mind to enhance the effects of psychotherapies, prescription medications, herbal medicine, vitamin/mineral supplementation and other alternative therapies. This holistic approach focuses on the whole person: mind, body, and spirit as well as all aspects of a patient’s environment and lifestyle. 

Integrative Mental Health Medicine  does not reject conventional prescribing but can be used as adjunctive support or as an alternative to traditional medications if appropriate.**

Treatment options include individual consultations as well as programs that include  functional nutrition, and integrative medicine protocols uniquely designed around your symptoms and personal goals.

A Certified Mental Health Medicine Provider (CMHIMP) explores the root causes of their mental health symptoms and are open to incorporating culinary medicine, nutritional supplementation, and lifestyle changes that can address deficiencies, dysfunction, detoxication so that healing and sustainable well-being are possible.

Integrative mental health offers a new approach to treating mental disorders by applying conventional and evidence-based complementary and alternative therapies
