Integrative Psychiatry
Optimize Your Mental Wellness
Philosophy
Dr. Marisa Serrato has incorporated principles of integrative holistic medicine, mind body approaches, clinical nutrition and functional medicine into her work as a psychiatrist. As much as is possible, Dr. Serrato has a goal of understanding the root causes of a person’s symptoms and to use this information to target treatment. She utilizes her unique skills to holistically evaluate a person’s symptoms, understand their biochemical individuality, and to thereby formulate individualized treatment recommendations.
Dr. Serrato strongly values working as a team with her patients, and that effective work together calls for ongoing, open, and honest communication as well as an understanding of each person’s unique perspective, biology, and experience.
Treatment Interventions
Dr. Serrato’s recommendations include interventions to optimize a person’s overall health, including the use of behavioral and nutritional approaches, mind-body medicine practices, the possible use of nutrient therapy or other supplements, as well as consideration of treatment with medications.
She uses a collaborative approach with other providers to ensure continuity of care and to allow her clients to benefit from the knowledge, experience, and wisdom of different clinicians and perspectives.
Treatment recommendations are tailored to each person’s individual interests and needs.
