Emotional Illness

Naturopathic medicine can offer excellent treatments to help deal with several types of emotional problems that people face. A few examples of these are described by clicking on one of the topics on the right. For an overview, please see below.

Emotional Illnesses are devastating to any individual who experiences them. We have extensive experience in managing emotional illness through nutritional supplementation, dietary and lifestyle management, botanical medicine, and the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) and Post Traumatic Stress Technique (PTST). EFT can painlessly and quickly work to identify and eliminate emotional issues that contribute to depression and anxiety, phobias and panic. PTST can help to decrease the anxiety associated with the problem. His approach is to initiate a treatment plan that is specific to the client's illness and to provide complementary support to conventional drug therapy.

Emotional / Psychological Illnesses addressed include:

- Depression
- Anxiety
- Schizophrenia
- ADHD/ADD
- Panic Disorders
- Phobias
- Anger Management
- Type C cancer personality
- Spiritual Crises

In chronic illnesses such as diabetes, autoimmune diseases, cancer, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, we again work to get to the underlying emotional issues that contribute to the imbalance in the physical body. In the field of psychoneuroimmunology, the study of the relationship between the mind, the nervous system and the immune system there is a strong link between the mind and the health of the body. EFT easily helps our doctors address these issues and thus allows the body heal more effectively and quickly.
