Holistic

The art and science of healing that
addresses the care of the whole person, mind, body and spirit.

Functional Medicine

• An integrative, science-based approach that promotes healing and wellness by focusing on the bio-chemically unique aspects of each patient, and then individually tailors interventions to restore physiological, psychological, and structural balance.
• Focuses on understanding the fundamental physiological processes, the environmental inputs and the genetic predispositions that influence health and disease.  
• Interventions address the roots of the problem.

Telehealth /
​Telepsychiatry

When deemed appropriate, evaluation and treatment using interactive video conferencing may be an option for those living in Kentucky. In the near future, we will be extending this to Ohio and Indiana and eventually beyond. This type of treatment has limitations relative to in person.

Telehealth/Telepsychiatry:

•  allows patients who do have access to a holistic/functional medicine psychiatrist to receive treatment
• allows patients (or their family members) to stay in the comfort of their own home, without having to take time to drive anywhere, or take time off from work. 
• allows patients to have family members (in other locations) join sessions.

We consider our office to be very calm and quiet. For some, however, going to a new place, especially a doctors office, can be extremely challenging.  My hope is to remove some of those barriers.

The technology that is used is secure and complies with HIPPA requirements.   

​For those living out of state and who are unable to travel to the office for treatment, non-treatment ​​​phone consultations are available.
