Neuroplasticity is the property of the brain that enables it to change its own structure and functioning in response to activity and mental experience. New synaptic connections are formed or changed from learning a new skill, environmental influences, practice, and psychological stress. Therefore, your brain changes everyday based on what you do, feel and think. This can work for you or against you.

CBT is an effective combination of talk therapy and behavioral therapy that examines your thinking and action patterns.  CBT first focuses on developing skills to recognize unhealthy thinking when it happens, and then to changing that thinking to reduce or eliminate problematic behaviors with positive actions. It places responsibility in the hands of a client while supporting and providing tools to solve their problems.

Nutrition & Gut Health

As Hippocrates the father of medicine once said: “Our health begins in our gut!” and for a good reason. Around 70% of our immune system is located within the gut and around 90% of the “feel good” hormone Serotonin is produced in the gut. Serotonin is important for regulating mood, appetite and overall well-being. Due to our lifestyle and poor nutrition choices, there is an imbalance in the microbiota of our gut which can lead to depression, anxiety, mood swings, inflammation, obesity and other health problems. So, getting our gut healthy is incredibly important.

Physical Activity

Regular exercise promotes positive changes in the brain, including neural growth, reduced inflammation, and new activity patterns that create feelings of calm and well-being. It also relieves stress, improves memory, better sleep, helps with anxiety and depression and boosts your overall mood.
