Redirect and reinvigorate your career in mental health care with our upcoming Fellowship in Functional and Integrative Psychiatry – and you’ll be more effective every day.
This fall, we are launching new functional medicine intensives for Binge Eating Disorder & Food Addiction in September, and a new Intensive for Anorexia Nervosa in November.
The Binge Eating Disorder is based on our proprietary ‘New Hope Model,’ which integrates conventional medical treatments with functional and integrative therapies. This model addresses the multifaceted nature of binge eating and food addiction.
These intensives focus on root causes by identifying biological and nutritional factors contributing to eating disorders.
Eating disorders continue to take lives, destroying families, and leaving loved ones feeling helpless. The current treatment models are out of date and do not provide the lasting recovery that eating disorder patients deserve.
Our models expand the current treatment model to look at genetics and biology, and incorporate functional medicine as an adjunct tool to support individuals of all ages and sexes who are managing disordered eating.
For eating disorder treatment, these changes couldn’t come soon enough. A more thorough understanding of the underlying causes of disordered eating behaviors can better help patients. Here are some key clinical areas to consider when treating ED patients:
- Nutrition: Understanding the complex interplay between food, mood, and gut health
- Nutritional deficiencies: Identifying and treating the common deficiencies that affect mood, emotions, and behavior
- Gut microbiome: Directly targeting the gut-brain axis and the complex interplay between the gastrointestinal flora and overall health
- Hormonal and neurotransmitter systems: Promoting a healthy relationship to food by helping restore a proper sense of appetite and satiety
An integrative approach offers a valuable framework for expanding your ED treatment toolkit and empowering your patients on their journey to recovery. A simple but powerful example is the relationship between the neurotransmitter serotonin and food intake for BED, covered in our July newsletter.
