My Approach to Care

Lifestyle Psychiatry

The Six Pillars of Lifestyle Psychiatry:

  • Nutrition

  • Physical Activity

  • Stress Management

  • Sleep

  • Relationships

  • Habits

Interventions that target healthy change in these fundamental areas are extremely powerful in facilitating the creation and maintenance of both mental and physical health.

Medications are used carefully when needed to enhance this process. Psychotherapy can help motivate and foster the necessary changes to achieve optimal health.

Why Change?

“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our own power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.”

- Viktor Frankl

Our work can lead to a widening of the space between stimulus and response such that you are more in control of your response and, thereby, more in control of your life.
