PROVIDE YOUR CLIENTS WITH INTEGRATIVE CARE
TAKE YOUR PRACTICE TO THE NEXT LEVEL
Your Clients are Suffering from Frustrating Symptoms Caused by Mental Health Disorders
Your clients with anxiety, depression, and other mental health problems may get some relief from medications, but the truth is that many people diagnosed with mental illness are seeking additional or alternative methods to help them feel better over the long term.
Since many medications produce side effects, the impulse to find replacements makes sense…
But thanks to “Dr. Google” and friends’ well-meaning but not so well-informed advice, millions of people are self-prescribing, and many diets and products they try can have adverse outcomes if they don’t align with their individual biological needs.
If you’re unsure of what to do because nutrition is outside your expertise, or you believe you can’t intercede in an ethical, skillful way, I want you to know that I designed this course for clinicians just like you.
Help Your Clients Navigate their Options and Sustainably Improve their Mental Health
MORE ABOUT THE COURSE
Improve Mood and Behavior
In this self-paced certification training, I trace the proven links between food and mood and teach you how numerous other holistic methods affect psychobiology. I equip you to help your clients navigate their options, steer clear of harmful methods, and sustainably improve their mental health.
Evidence-Based Approach
I’ve worked for over 40 years to develop the field of integrative medicine and nutrition for mental health. In this course, I’ll be sharing a range of safe, effective, evidence-based approaches that can help your clients optimize their well-being while addressing their mental health — whether they are anxious, depressed, or suffering from insomnia, ADHD, PTSD, or complex trauma.
Nutritional Medicine
You’ll learn to safely and ethically use integrated and nutritional medicine within your professional discipline’s scope of practice.
The Brainbow Blueprint®
My methodology, The Brainbow Blueprint®, provides a full range of options and applications of integrative medicine and nutrition for mental health. You’ll develop a full palette of nutritional and integrative medicine methods that can alleviate symptoms, working in harmony with and in some cases replacing medications.
Effective Treatment for Children, Without Pharma
By adapting complementary and alternative methods you’ll find effective treatment for children and teens with behavioral and mental health disorders such as ADHD and ODD.
Taper off Medications
Many clients do not like the side effects of the medications they take. I will guide you through creating a Taper Plan and coach you through the ethics and coordination of working with prescribers. I’ll even give you examples of how to talk to difficult prescribers.
Provide Your Clients with Personalized, Integrative Care
This rich, dynamic course prepares you to provide your clients with personalized, evidenced-based care that provides the missing link to mental health today.
I will teach you the clinical art and science of nutritional, natural, and integrative medicine to treat trauma and PTSD, depression, anxiety, insomnia, ADHD, and more.
Once you complete this course, you’ll qualify to immediately become a Certified Mental Health Integrative Medicine Provider (CMHIMP) through the Leslie Korn Institute for Integrative Medicine.
