Creating Balance for Healing
While
the medical community tends to deal mostly with symptoms and diagnosis,
Bob maintains a focus on wellness and the innate well-being of each person.
With this approach, when Bob does prescribe medication, it is often in
lower doses for shorter periods of time.
As a medical doctor, Bob understands
the role medication can play in the progress of some clients. Used appropriately,
medication can be a tool to help people reconnect to their natural state—that
of being peaceful and serene. Medication can quiet the mind
in order to bring about a balanced state from which clients can more easily
and quickly gain the insight into themselves that they need so that healing
can occur. When someone is so anxious, depressed or upset that they are
unable to focus on what is being said, any real progress is difficult.
The mind is just too clouded. When this is the case, Bob can draw on his
medical/biological background to prescribe the right medication.
Symptoms are not afflictions that need to be destroyed
but opportunities for learning and growth. |
Hormonal and Nutritional Factors
Bob has studied functional
endocrinology and incorporates into his practice an awareness of the role
that hormonal imbalances play in psychological health. Proper analysis
of hormonal imbalances and nutrition can be key to treating psychological
concerns.
