Mood Disorder Evaluations

Anxiety, Depression, and Stress Related Disorders

Mood Disorders are on the rise. Drugs, psychotherapy, and other treatments leave more than half of the general population who suffer from anxiety, depression, dementia, addictions, ADHD, autism, etc, with only partial or no recovery. The Functional Medicine approach to Mood Disorders improves these outcomes through Functional Diagnostic assessment and Orthomolecular treatment. Orthomolecular Nutrition & Wellness Center can help you understand your options for treatment.

Unfortunately, conventional strategies assume the mind and body function separately. Each organ of the body is largely on its own. However, current science shows that just the opposite is true. The multiple systems of mind and body communicate and interact with each other in a complex holistic web of biochemical, hormonal and metabolic relationships. Even such distant organs as the brain, thyroid gland, adrenal gland, immune system, gut, and liver interact, and in important ways function effectively as one.
