Nutrition Naturopaths in Sisters, OR
As a licensed clinical psychologist and naturopathic doctor, my aim is to join natural medicine, nutrition, and psychotherapy to treat the mind and body.
While naturopathic doctors certainly recognize the importance of diagnosis, we are committed to looking beyond the label of a disease, and identifying its causal mechanisms. So, when it comes to mental or physical health, my goal is to treat the patient - not the just the DSM or the ICD10 code. This means engaging in a thorough and individualized assessment of the psychological, biochemical, and environmental factors that interact to produce emotional and bodily suffering. As the set of causes for each person's symptoms is unique, so must be the treatment.

Nutrition Naturopaths
Do naturopaths offer nutrition counseling?
Many naturopaths do offer nutrition counseling. In fact, those credentialed as naturopathic doctors (NDs) receive specialized training in nutrition as part of their 4-year training curriculum in naturopathic medicine. Traditional naturopaths with less formal training may vary substantially in their knowledge of nutrition. However, in general, naturopathy encourages the use of lifestyle interventions, such as diet, as an alternative to medication intervention, thus rendering many naturopaths particularly interested in the topic of nutrition. Some naturopaths may adhere to a specific nutritional philosophy, such as only consuming unprocessed foods, while others may see food as an adjunct to other lifestyle interventions, such as physical exercise and herbal supplementation. When searching for a naturopath, therefore, clients should consider their own therapeutic goals and comfort level with various nutrition interventions, as well as the credentials of the specific naturopathic practitioner.
