Our Group Services
Group Services > Nutritional Health Services
We have Staff that are Certified Mental Health & Nutrition Clinical Specialist (CMNCS)
Reasons why you might need a Nutritional Health Assessment:
When anxious clients are still jittery and tense despite your best counseling efforts — should we start working with you on your food and beverage choices?
When our depressed clients are sluggish and sleeping all day — can we suggest a supplement?
Could there be nutritional deficiencies lurking in the background with our clients that have experienced more significant trauma or clients who just aren’t recovering?
