Psychiatry Redefined is excited to announce the launch of the Finally Calm: Functional & Integrative Medicine for the Treatment of OCD Training with James Greenblatt, MD — a self-paced, certified Intensive training to equip mental health providers and therapists with scientific, evidence-based tools that can be used immediately with your patients exhibiting symptoms of OCD. This training illuminates a path towards real, sustained recovery, and offers hands-on support to help you treat complex cases of OCD. Discover new functional interventions to move your patients from finding calm, to finally calm.
Enrollment for the summer 2025 training will open soon!
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) affects 1 in 40 people (2.3% of the population), impacting individuals universally. OCD’s effects can be profound, hindering productivity and fulfillment in life. Although traditional approaches to OCD, primarily centered around psychotherapy and medications, provide benefits to many patients, there is growing scientific and evidence-based research that supports that OCD often arises from discrete biological factors such as genetics, inflammation, gut dysbiosis, and more significantly, serotonergic dysfunction.
START DATE & LIVE SESSIONS: Summer 2025 session begins June 7. Live sessions are scheduled for June 7, 10 and 17.
PROGRAM FORMAT: Self-paced training with three live sessions
THIS TRAINING IS IDEAL FOR: Psychiatrists and clinicians (MD/DO), nurses and nurse practitioners, therapists, physicians and physician assistants, naturopathic physicians, dietitians, nutritionists, and other health and mental health clinicians. This program is designed as a professional training, but patients and families are welcome to enroll and learn.
ACCREDITATION: 3.0 CME AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™
ENROLLMENT FEE: $499 (Enrollment opening soon!)

Functional & Integrative Medicine for OCD (3.0 CME credits)
In this 3-module course for clinicians of all backgrounds, Dr. James Greenblatt provides a comprehensive evaluation of all the factors that lead to Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and other affective disorders. He reviews key nutrients associated with symptoms of OCD, plus relevant lab testing protocols and supplementation for treatment. Dr. Greenblatt then takes a deep-dive into the gut-mind connection and microbiome, along with contributing factors to folate deficiency, opioid peptides, systemic inflammation and nutritional deficiencies. He rounds out the course with a close look at sertonergic signaling, and functional and integrative treatments, including vitamin, amino acid, herbal and mineral supplementation, and lifestyle changes.
New Functional & Natural Strategies to Treat OCD
In this exclusive webinar, Dr. Greenblatt explores the biological triggers of OCD and reviews the nutritional intervention, inositol, for optimizing serotonin synthesis. Inositol is a B vitamin that plays vital roles in serotonin signaling and has demonstrated significant benefits for individuals struggling with OCD. Trainees will gain an expanded clinical toolkit and proven, evidence-based strategies for inositol supplementation to help optimize recovery and outcomes for OCD patients.
