Frequently asked questions.
Are your services effective?
Our services are designed to address the root causes of mental, emotional, and physical challenges rather than simply managing symptoms. Many clients report noticeable improvements in clarity, mood regulation, focus, energy, and overall wellbeing within the first few weeks of care. Outcomes vary depending on individual goals, consistency, and physiology, but our integrative, personalized approach allows us to tailor care plans that evolve with you.
What can I expect during my initial assessment?
Your assessment is comprehensive and collaborative. We take time to understand your mental health history, lifestyle factors, stress patterns, cognitive functioning, nutrition, sleep, and goals. This allows us to create a personalized roadmap that may include integrative mental health strategies, coaching, lifestyle optimization, and program-based support. You remain fully engaged and informed throughout the process.
What is Integrative Mental Health?
Integrative Mental Health focuses on the connection between the brain, body, emotions, and environment. Instead of isolating symptoms, this approach considers nervous system regulation, metabolic health, inflammation, stress physiology, and behavioral patterns. Services may include education, lifestyle interventions, cognitive and emotional regulation strategies, and coordinated care when appropriate.
How does the ADHD Program work?
Our ADHD Program is designed for adolescents and adults seeking structure, clarity, and sustainable support. We focus on attention regulation, executive functioning, emotional resilience, habit-building, and nervous system balance. The program combines assessment, education, coaching, and practical tools tailored to your unique cognitive profile.
What is Brain Health & Longevity Optimization?
This service focuses on cognitive performance, memory, focus, and long-term brain resilience. We address factors such as stress load, sleep quality, metabolic health, inflammation, and lifestyle habits that impact brain aging. The goal is not only to enhance performance now, but to protect and support brain health over time.
Do you offer Weight Management support?
Yes. Our Weight Management approach goes beyond calories and willpower. We address emotional eating, stress-related weight changes, metabolic health, and behavior patterns. Clients often appreciate the compassionate, non-punitive approach that integrates mental health, nervous system regulation, and sustainable lifestyle changes.
What role does Coaching play in your services?
Coaching provides structured support, accountability, and skill-building. It helps clients apply insights from assessments and programs into real-life changes. Coaching sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented, supporting emotional regulation, habit formation, mindset shifts, and personal growth.
How quickly will I notice results?
Some clients experience increased clarity or emotional relief within the first few sessions, while others notice more gradual improvements over time. Progress depends on consistency, individual physiology, and the specific services involved. We regularly reassess and adjust care plans to support meaningful, sustainable change.
Are there any side effects?
Because our services emphasize integrative and non-invasive approaches, side effects are minimal. Some clients may experience temporary emotional awareness, fatigue, or adjustment periods as new routines and insights are integrated. These responses are typically short-lived and discussed openly during sessions.
Do you accept insurance?
We accept HMSA and TriWest Care for eligible services. Coverage and benefits vary by plan, and our team is happy to help verify your benefits prior to starting care. For services not covered by insurance, payment options and packages are discussed transparently before services begin.
