Integrative and Functional Medicine

Bethesda, Maryland & Washington, DC Area

We use advanced diagnostic and treatment approaches to identify and address the root causes of symptoms such as depression, anxiety, brain fog, fatigue, and sleep disturbances. Our clinic specializes in brain and mental health conditions and focuses on understanding and treating their underlying causes.

You deserve to know the why behind your symptoms.

Functional medicine uses cutting edge research and laboratory and neuroscience testing to detect the issues underlying symptoms. Functional medicine also takes into consideration the relationship between the different systems in the body, such as the gut brain connection. 



Why Functional and Integrative Medicine?
 

Functional Medicine 

Integrative Medicine 

In our clinic, we combine functional medicine and integrative medicine to identify root causes and expand treatment options. We also incorporate qEEG brain mapping and neurotherapy when appropriate, giving patients the best chance for meaningful and lasting improvement.

In psychiatry and in many chronic health conditions, treatment is often focused on managing symptoms rather than understanding why those symptoms are occurring. We are committed to going beyond symptom management by identifying and addressing root causes, with the goal of helping patients achieve deeper and more sustainable healing.

Integrative medicine expands your treatment options by bringing together the best approaches from conventional and holistic medicine. With these expanded options, we can create treatments that are tailored for your unique needs and aimed at long-term healing.
