The Method
How Dr. Kim Approaches Mental Health
Dr. Kim takes an individualized approach with each of her patients — exploring causative factors for your symptoms including neurotransmitter deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, nutritional deficiencies, heavy metal toxicity, and other underlying contributors. She involves you fully in the creation of a treatment plan that best fits your needs.
Investigations may include laboratory testing such as blood tests, salivary testing of hormones, neurotransmitter testing, or testing for heavy metal toxicity. Dr. Kim uses a wide range of treatments to support mental health including herbs, orthomolecular medicine, acupuncture, and homeopathic medicine — many of which can be used as solo therapies or in conjunction with existing medications.
Compassionate Care
A Supportive, Individualized Approach
At Townsend Naturopathic, our goal is for you to feel fully involved and in control of your wellness plan. Dr. Kim understands that no two patients experience mental health concerns in the same way — and her approach reflects that. Whether you are newly exploring natural options or looking to complement an existing treatment plan, Dr. Kim will meet you where you are.
