Food Is Brain Medicine

Our clients and patients deserve more options for their mental health. Many argue that we live in an over-prescribed and misprescribed society. With the potential for so many negative side effects like weight gain, nausea, fatigue, and trouble sleeping, your clients probably don’t want to be prescribed more medications if they can help it.

That’s why Nutritional Psychiatry is such an incredibly important tool to begin using right now. Prescribing food is one of the most impactful things you can do for your clients and patients. With a few thoughtful, evidence based tweaks to their diet, they can start seeing incredible results in a matter of weeks.

Nutritional Psychiatry is an evidence-based augmentation strategy that will radically change the mental health trajectory of your clients and patients.


Transform Your Practice

With Nutritional Psychiatry

Gain a Tool with ZERO Negative Side Effects

Many patients hate taking meds because they come with so many side effects and so much stigma. Nutritional Psychiatry and diet modification has ZERO negative side effects in most cases, empowering you with a risk-free tool you can use to help your patients feel better.

Connect With Your Patients Over Something Positive

How many of your interactions with patients are primarily “negative,” discussing things they may have little or no control over? Adding Nutritional Psychiatry to your repertoire allows you to take a break from the negative and connect with them in a more positive way. We all know that forming a meaningful alliance with clients and patients is critical to their success.

Prescribe Food with Confidence

Are your patients bouncing from diet to diet, confused about what they should or shouldn’t be eating? With Nutritional Psychiatry, you’ll know how to harness the most cutting-edge science to help your patients eat to support their mental health.

Increase the Effectiveness of the Therapy You’re Already Doing

Studies show that the right foods can be incredibly effective tools for improving mental health, and when added onto conventional treatment methods they can actually double the efficacy of treatment. Nutritional Psychiatry will augment what you’re already doing and give your patients radical results!

Generate a Reliable Stream of High Quality Referrals

Nutritional Psychiatry will help differentiate your practice and can help position you as the “go-to” practitioner in your community. Prospective patients will begin to seek you out directly and be excited to work with you because you offer something no one else does.

Empower Your Patients With Actionable Advice They Can Utilize Immediately

Nutritional Psychiatry provides a tangible tool that your patients can act on immediately. Diet is something they can take control over the moment they step out of your office allowing them to begin making meaningful progress right away.
