Holistic Management of Anxiety
|
Join Suruchi
Chandra, MD,
an integrative psychiatrist, as she discusses holistic
approaches to understanding and treating anxiety
in children and adults. This includes
generalized anxiety, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive
behaviors, phobias, and anxiety conditions in autism
spectrum disorders.
Conventional psychiatric medications, including
SSRIs and benzodiazepines, may not be effective for everyone with anxiety
disorders. Others may find only partial relief with these medications
or experience unpleasant side effects. Dr. Chandra will explore a whole-body
approach to identifying the core imbalances underlying anxiety disorders,
including the gut-brain connection, hormonal imbalances, immune system
dysfunction, mitochondrial dysfunction, and methylation defects. Dr.
Chandra will discuss holistic and non-pharmaceutical ways to treat anxiety
by addressing these underlying metabolic imbalances using a combination
of dietary changes, herbal medicines, nutritional supplements, and other
natural approaches.
Class size is limited to 25. Be sure to reserve
