I’m a holistic psychiatrist, and a question I often get is: What does that even mean?
It’s basically a term a few rebellious psychiatrists use to describe the way we practice, which is to take the whole person into consideration—including what you eat, how you sleep, your relationships, your connection with nature, creativity, and spirituality. We don’t merely diagnose and medicate; we think globally about what gets out of balance in every corner of your life, so we can gently shift things back into balance to support your wellness.
