What If Meds Don't Work For Me?
The field of psychiatry has been mostly based on subjective information to determine treatment plans and not on objective (facts/labs/data) for determining potential treatments. It is the ONLY field of medicine that is structured this way. Imagine for a minute that you go to your Dr and they just look at you and talk to you a bit and say " You need cholesterol medication" without having any labs to say that your cholesterol is abnormal. This would not happen. So why does it happen in appointments for depression, anxiety and attention and focus so often?
Here comes brain mapping.... QEEG maps of the brain are an in office procedure that takes about 40 mins start to finish.
The advantage of this mapping is that we can determine your exact sub-type of anxiety, depression, sleep concern or ADHD.
Think about that for a second.... no more guessing on which medications, supplements or type of therapy you will benefit from the most.
The use of objective brain mapping is going to change the field of psychiatry and psychology.
The maps that we produce at the clinic are designed to be shared with all your care team members so everyone can better help you.
Brain mapping is most useful for you if:
1. You have been on numerous med in the past and still don't feel your best
2. You are just about to start a medication and want to make sure it is the right one for your symptoms
3. You want to understand deeper your communication and learning styles
4. You are unsure if the diagnosis given to you is correct
5. You are unsure if you want to try medications and would like other options
Brain mapping sounds like a great option. I dislike how there is no objective way to diagnose mental health conditions as compared to those of purely physical health.
