Medication Management
Medications are one of many tools we use in the treatment phase. We do our best to utilize the most appropriate medications for each individual, educating clients about benefits, risks, reasons, alternatives, and expectations for time commitment. We also help clients decrease and discontinue medications when appropriate.

Psychotherapy and Mind-Body Medicine
We begin therapy by actively listening to your story. Then, we utilize a blend of modalities to equip you with practical tools such as mindfulness, meditation, and grounding techniques aimed at enhancing self-awareness and breaking free from patterns that no longer serve you.

Lifestyle Coaching and Education
Diet, activity, sleep, and other habits play a pivotal role in mental health. It can be overwhelming deciding where to start. We provide individualized coaching and education tailored to your specific needs to improve outcomes.

Nutritional Supplementation and Plant-based Medicine
We use an evidence based approach to offer guidance on pharmaceutical grade nutritional supplements and plant-based medicines to enhance your well-being. If you're already taking supplements, we can assist in optimizing your regimen, ensuring you're using the correct supplements in the appropriate formulation and dosage. Additionally, we will review for any potential interactions between your medications and supplements to guarantee your safety.

Lab and Genetic Testing
Every body is unique and recent studies reveal how our genetic makeup can impact treatment outcomes. We utilize genetic testing to analyze your susceptibility to illness, forecast your response to particular medications, and fine-tune your medication plan for maximum effectiveness.
Again, every body is unique and this can create disconnect between "normal" lab result ranges and client symptoms or personal needs. We employ lab testing to assess the potential impact of various aspects including nutrient levels, organic acids, essential fatty acids, amino acids, and the presence of inflammation in the body. This comprehensive approach allows us to refine your treatment plan for optimal results.

Psychedelic Education and Integration
Psychedelics such as psilocybin, LSD, ketamine, and MDMA in conjunction with therapy is proving facilitate profound spiritual insights and is increasingly supported for a variety of mental health disorders including depression and PTSD. To assist you in determining if this route aligns with your needs, we provide education, resources, and insights into potential benefits and risks based on the latest research findings.
Integrating the lessons learned from a psychedelic journey into everyday life can also be challenging. Research shows the effects are greater and longer lasting when accompanied by therapy support. We offer supportive therapy for the integration processing phase of your psychedelic experience.
