Infrequently, this information gathering requires more than one session. She may recommend state-of-the art specialty testing to assist diagnosis.

With her experience and training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic psychotherapy, she is able track down the drivers of distress caused by disturbances in sense of self, dynamics of relationships, and perceived world view. Trauma is her specialty.

After the appointment, Dr. Stein will provide a 5-9-page optimal health plan laying out a summary of her thoughts and tailoring the intervention to your specific needs as an individual. She will provide specific interventions in diet, rest, movement, stress reduction and dietary supplements or medication to treat your conditions.  She will always seek the least invasive way to help your body restore balance. She seeks to partner with you to promote wellness and create hope, health, and healing.
