Brain-directed weight loss is an approach to weight management that focuses on changing how the brain perceives, regulates, and responds to stressors, food, hunger, habits, and emotions rather than relying solely on willpower, diet plans, or exercise.  History of traumatic experiences can change the way our hormone cascades function and how our bodies store excess weight.  Let the professionals at Clair Mind Health help you on this journey toward health.

​​Functional wellness takes a whole-person approach to mental health, recognizing that the mind and body are deeply interconnected. Many chronic conditions "flare up" when mental health worsens.  Chronic pain, fatigue, fibromyalgia, gut disorders, hormonal imbalances,  autoimmune diseases, and sexual dysfunction, to name a few.  Changes in mental health often have an impact on functional aspects of our physical health. These conditions often manifest in overlapping symptoms like brain fog, low energy, low libido, mood swings, sleep disruption, and chronic pain. Functional wellness seeks to identify and treat the root causes of these symptoms rather than just managing them, using evidence-based tools like nutrition, lifestyle modifications, functional medicine, supplementation, mind-body practices, and personalized care plans to restore balance and improve overall quality of life.
