If
you or someone you know is affected by anxiety or depression, you know
how much stress it can cause. These mood disorders can significantly
interfere with a person’s daily activities, work, and relationships.
Conventional
medications may help reduce the symptoms of anxiety or depression, but
these medications can cause unwanted side effects such as fatigue or
insomnia – symptoms that people with anxiety or depression usually
already have!
Our
naturopathic program for depression and anxiety is tailored for each
individual. Dr. Tara Peyman chooses from a variety of natural treatment
options to fit your needs and help you to feel better as soon as
possible.
Many people feel a difference in their symptoms even after the first visit.
"My mood has improved tremendously. I feel really good about myself." --Taryn, 33 year old woman with anxiety, depression, and insomnia treated with homeopathic medicine and acupuncture. Taryn was able to stop her medication for bipolar disorder after only 3 weeks of starting naturopathic medicine.
Your program may include:
- An
in-depth medical consultation to determine an accurate diagnosis and
obtain a clear, complete history of all of your health concerns
- A homeopathic consultation and natural homeopathic prescription to improve your mood and reduce feelings of anxiety or depression
- Testing to determine underlying hormone imbalances and to help design an individualized treatment protocol for you
- Relaxing and naturally energizing acupuncture or acupressure treatments designed to regulate your mood, reduce muscle tension, and improve your sense of well-being
- Follow up visits to assess your response to the homeopathic and nutritional treatments
- Recommended additional therapies may include referrals for hypnotherapy or counseling to uncover and treat deeper thought patterns or help to heal emotional trauma
- Natural herbal medicine to balance your mood, reduce irritability, and boost your energy.
Frequency of follow up visits will vary based on the individual.
"When I first
visited Dr. Peyman with a major depressive disorder, which I have been
struggling with for almost a year, I had exhausted all conventional
doctors and anti-depressant treatments. Nothing had made a difference.
Sadness and despair were continuing to overwhelm me. My energy and
motivation were almost non-existent. I visited her because I had no
other options. Within a week and a half, I was back to myself – joyous,
energetic, and grateful."
-- Jeff, 35 year old man with depression treated with homeopathic medicine.
"Dr.
Peyman sincerely cares about my well-being. She takes the time to
understand not only my symptoms, but also me personally, to
holistically treat me. I truly do not know where I would be without
having met Dr. Peyman. The depression was affecting my work, my
personal life, and my friendships. Dr. Peyman helped me return to
living."
