Psychological and Lifestyle Counseling | Ho'o Lokahi Naturopathic Medicine

Psychological and Lifestyle Counseling in Hawaii

Another major focus of our practice is identifying and addressing psychological and social factors that cause or contribute to each patient’s health problems. This emphasis is reflected in comments from patients such as “I feel like I’m talking to a psychologist.”

Attention to our patient’s psyche is part of almost every patient encounter. Some patients see Dr. Traub for ongoing counseling and mental/emotional support.

Mental/Emotional Support.

We all know the importance of taking care of not only our physical health, but also our emotional and mental well-being. It is part of our duty as doctors to provide support for those issues as well!

Naturopathic medicine offers a holistic approach to supporting mental health that focuses on addressing the root cause of health issues and supporting the body’s natural healing processes. After a comprehensive history and assessment, Dr. Traub will discuss a variety of treatment options such as diet and lifestyle habits, mind-body modalities, botanical medicine, nutritional supplementation, and pharmaceutical therapy to optimize mental wellbeing.

Anxiety and panic attacks
Depression

We are always mindful of the psychological needs and concerns patients may have when they come into our office. Some people see Dr. Traub for ongoing counseling, while others want emotional support or guidance on how best to manage their mental health issues in order to not only live better now but also be able to respond with resilience to challenges in the future.
