At Willow’s Tree Behavioral Health, we offer a holistic, whole-body approach to mental health, focusing on uncovering and treating the underlying causes of mental illness. Through Integrative and Functional Medicine, we aim to address not only the symptoms but also the root causes—such as genetic, biochemical, nutritional, hormonal, and environmental imbalances—to help you achieve optimal wellness.
What is Integrative & Functional Medicine?
Integrative & Functional Medicine is an advanced healthcare model that recognizes that mental health conditions often have multiple contributing factors. These can include genetic predispositions, hormonal imbalances, nutritional deficiencies, environmental factors, and more. Instead of solely relying on medications to mask symptoms, we work to understand why the condition is occurring and develop a personalized treatment plan to address the root causes.
We incorporate a combination of evidence-based practices, personalized nutrition, natural supplements, and lifestyle adjustments to support your mental and physical health. Our goal is not just to help you manage mental health issues but to restore your overall well-being.
