Laurie Clair

Medical Director, PA-C, ABAAHP

Laurie Clair PA-C, is a board-certified Physician Associate with additional certifications in Advanced Metabolic Endocrinology, Weight Management and has completed a fellowship in Nutritional and Functional Medicine through the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine.

With empathy and insight gained from witnessing psychiatric patients struggle with metabolic effects of medications, sub-optimal symptom relief, and frequent relapses of mental health conditions, she developed a passion to improve psychiatric outcomes. For nearly 15 years, she’s honed her skills, working alongside physician mentors in a variety of clinical and inpatient settings. Over the years, she's developed a strong awareness of the tie between adverse life events and the severity of both psychiatric and metabolic symptoms. As such, Laurie's practice has a strong focus on patients with history of trauma, treatment resistant symptoms and metabolic challenges related to their experiences. Her approach is deeply rooted in the belief that mental and physical health are indivisible, and that mental health treatment should enhance and compliment physical health.

She is also a national lecturer on mental health topics, and a frequent preceptor, providing advanced education during clinical rotations for future psychiatric providers.
