Mental Health Protocol
Severe mental illnesses such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder often have complex causes, but emerging science highlights the profound role of the gut-brain axis in mental health. I specialize in supporting individuals with severe mental illness by addressing the gut-brain connection through personalized nutrition therapy.
​
The gut-brain axis is a two-way communication network between your digestive system and your brain, heavily influenced by the health of your gut microbiome. An imbalanced gut can lead to systemic inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, and disruptions in brain signaling, all of which can contribute to worsening mental health symptoms.

DETAILS: SUPPORT WHEN IT'S NEEDED MOST
Severe mental illnesses such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder often have complex causes, but emerging science highlights the profound role of the gut-brain axis in mental health. I specialize in supporting individuals with severe mental illness by addressing the gut-brain connection through personalized nutrition therapy.
​
The gut-brain axis is a two-way communication network between your digestive system and your brain, heavily influenced by the health of your gut microbiome. An imbalanced gut can lead to systemic inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, and disruptions in brain signaling, all of which can contribute to worsening mental health symptoms.
​
My approach targets these underlying factors through:
-
Healing the Gut: Restoring balance to the gut microbiome with a tailored nutritional plan to reduce inflammation and improve digestion.
-
Nutritional Optimization: Addressing nutrient deficiencies that are often linked to mental health conditions, such as omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, and magnesium.
-
Reducing Toxicity: Supporting detoxification pathways to minimize the impact of environmental and dietary toxins on brain function.
-
Stabilizing Blood Sugar: Creating meal plans to avoid blood sugar spikes and crashes, which can exacerbate symptoms like anxiety, mood swings, and fatigue.
​
Nutrition therapy is not a replacement for medical treatment but a complementary approach that can amplify the effectiveness of traditional therapies, reduce medication side effects, and promote overall well-being. By addressing the gut-brain axis, we aim to provide a foundation for resilience, clarity, and hope for those navigating the challenges of severe mental illness.
