Safe, optimized approach to prescribing:

• Minimum effective medication dosing and quantities for all medications

• Effective alternatives to controlled substances for anxiety, insomnia, post-traumatic stress, and attention-deficit disorders

• Working with outside clinicians to coordinate prescribing strategies, and to eliminate medication interactions, redundancies, and polypharmacy

• Avoiding combining controlled substances

• Controlled substance contracts

Integrative approach to therapy:

• Encouraging authenticity, humility, and self-awareness

• Promoting action, change, and growth—not just talk

• Leveraging patient strengths, skills, and creativity to manage illness, distress, and dysfunction

• Helping identify distorted thought and behavioral patterns inducing pain, distress, and dysfunction

• Appreciating humans as conditioned animals with lived experience attempting to function in chaotic, unnatural modern environments, and circumstances

• Promote catharsis, acceptance, and resolution
