What is a Holistic Approach?
Most traditional mental health services focus on treating the symptoms rather than looking for and addressing the root causes. This can end up being a one-approach-fits all model and tends to lead to the use of medications. While the use of pharmaceuticals can be helpful, they come with many problems of their own and might not be the best option for everyone.
The holistic model looks at key factors like; the impacts of general lifestyle issues like sleep habits and poor nutrition, problems with interpersonal relationships and their impact on development, family history, and underlying medical conditions. When all of this is taken into consideration, it may decrease the likelihood of long-term medication use. Linnea can help you develop and follow a food/lifestyle plan that incorporates more natural and organic foods, natura supplements and general self-care. Services will begin with an in-depth assessment that examines current and historical environmental & emotional stressors, reviews past and current health concerns and allows a collaborative creation of a personalized treatment plan.*
