So much more than medications

An elevated, integrative approach to care that is as unique as you are.

HOW I CAN HELP

As a psychiatric nurse practitioner, my training in Western medicine equips me with a solid foundation in traditional psychiatric care. However, my specialization in holistic practices enables me to offer a comprehensive approach, leveraging both worlds to optimize mental health outcomes. I integrate evidence-based treatments with holistic modalities, ensuring a personalized and balanced approach tailored to each individual's unique needs, fostering holistic well-being for mind, body, and spirit.

Service Menu

The path to wellness is never just one thing. I provide a comprehensive approach to care in addition to a supportive, therapeutic alliance.

  • Integrative psychiatry isn’t anti-medication. We work together to find the best medication regimen for you that works at the lowest dose possible and without causing unnecessary side effects. In addition to medication, I can work with you to use nutritional supplementation and plant based medicines to give you extra support for your most optimal self.

  • I used methods derived from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Interpersonal Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in working with patients.

    I will also guide you through tangible steps to improve your sleep, exercise, and nutritional habits.

    Regardless of the method, my goal is to help you change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to live a happier, more productive life.

  • We’ll enhance your planning and management skills, helping you to meet your goals professionally and maximize your income potential. I can also help with basic financial coaching, helping you get out of debt faster, reduce impulsive spending, and help plan for a wealthier future.

    I also offer budgeting coaching, for those struggling with impulsive spending and difficulty managing debt.

  • Prescription medications are not the only tool for improving mental health. I will work with you to customize a supplement plan that is minimally invasive and minimizes the risk of harmful side effects, using the least force necessary to help the body heal.

    I prescribe pharmaceutical-grade supplements, offered at a discount through Psychiatry Elevated.

  • I utilize the latest lab technology to uncover deficiencies that conventional labs may not pick-up on. Functional nutritional testing gives a metabolic analysis of your body including assessment of amino acids, organic acids, essential fatty acids, oxidative stress, toxic element and nutrient levels - helping your get to the root cause of your symptoms, faster.

  • Burnout, fatigue and depression, insomnia, stress and burnout can all be signs of hormonal imbalance. I utilize advanced salivary cortisol and melatonin testing in order to assess adrenal function. I also use advanced sex hormone testing to better manage symptoms of PMS, perimenopause, and menopause.

  • There is increasing evidence and research confirming the brain-gut connection. I offer advanced gastrointestinal stool testing to assess for maldigestion, inflammation, dysbiosis, metabolite imbalance, and infection that may be contributing to mental distress.

  • Food sensitivities and allergies can lead to symptoms of depression, nervousness, anger, and loss of motivation. I can provide advanced food allergy & sensitivity testing and guide you toward dietary changes to optimize your health.

  • Like how your unique fingerprint unlocks your phone, genetic testing unlocks your genetic “fingerprint.” This testing provides insight to inform your medication treatment and optimize your overall outcomes.

  • I can teach you how to use meditation and mindfulness to help soothe your anxieties, alleviate depression, improve sleep, and overall reduce negative mental health symptoms.

“I had worked with so many providers and medications, I was starting to feel hopeless. From the start, Emily had solutions that had never been suggested to me before.

After working with her for a few months, I’m feeling better than I ever have before. It’s an immense relief.”
