Mindful Medication Management(tm) after 25 years of clinical experience my fundamental belief is this that true healing begins with mindfulness. My practice is a marriage of the science of western medicine and the art of eastern healing philosophies. Medications help control symptoms while mindfulness helps uncover root causes of disease. Mindful Medication Management means I provide needed prescriptions for anxiety, depression, cognitive impairment/dementia, and sleep disorders while using an integrative approach to help uncover possible causes such as nutritional deficiencies, hormone imbalances, or other stressors overlapping symptoms. Together we design strategies that may help gradually reduce dosages or the number of medications you take.
