Mental Health
Mental health is, unfortunately, often greatly overlooked. Some may think that it is only about mental illness, but that's not the whole story. Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make decisions.
Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood. Millions of Americans live with mental health conditions every day. Just like physical health, mental health needs to be cared for throughout our lives.
PHYSICAL HEALTH + MENTAL HEALTH
Most mental health conditions are conventionally treated to resolve physical symptoms and manifestation of the illnesses. However, there is a strong and undeniable connection between physical well-being and mental health issues. Dr. Catherine Oseni uses her integrative and functional health approaches to take this connection into account and focuses on treating the whole person, rather than just the symptoms of a disease.
By addressing both the physical and mental aspects of an illness, Dr. Catherine Oseni helps patients achieve lasting wellness. In addition, these approaches often emphasize prevention, which can help to keep minor health issues from developing into much more serious problems in the future.
