INTEGRATIVE MENTAL HEALTH: DEEPER SOLUTIONS, BETTER OUTCOMES

Practitioners and patients alike are hungry for alternatives to the conventional medication-heavy model of mental health treatment. Integrative medicine offers a new paradigm for assessing, advising and treating those with mental health symptoms. You will enjoy improved clinical outcomes and enhanced professional satisfaction with this new paradigm!

The practice of integrative mental health includes (1) the use of natural agents for symptom reduction, (2) assessment and treatment of physiological root causes of mental health symptoms including nutrient deficiency, hormone imbalance, gut dysbiosis, inflammation, and toxic burden, (3) assessment and treatment of psychospiritual root causes of mental health symptoms including psychological trauma and insecure attachment styles.

This introductory course provides both prescribers and interested non-prescribing mental health professionals with expertise and tools for integrative mental health practice. Dr. Settle draws on both the published medical evidence and current functional medicine practice to support the application of integrative treatments to mental health practice. Practical tools include assessment checklists, decision algorithms, patient handouts, and resources for further training.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER

Dr. Janet Settle MD

Diplomate, American Board of Integrative Medicine

Co-founder, Psychiatry MasterClass

Dr. Settle has spent the last 20 years of her 23-year private psychiatric practice studying and implementing medical treatments that have been successively referred to as “alternative,” “complementary,” “holistic,” and now “integrative.” Disillusioned by the limits of conventional psychiatry early in her career, she trained through apprenticeship in Five Element Acupuncture. She was in the first cohort of physicians certified by The American Board of Holistic Medicine in 2000 and she completed a fellowship in Anti-Aging, Regenerative and Functional Medicine in 2009. In 2016, she was board certified by the newly formed American Board of Integrative Medicine.

She is passionate about sharing her expertise and experience in integrative psychiatry. As a faculty member at the University of Colorado Department of Psychiatry, she teaches integrative medicine to residents. She co-founded Psychiatry MasterClass, a CME course for mental health prescribers. She has contributed chapters to two integrative mental health textbooks and lectures internationally on the topic of integrative mental health.

Dr. Settle also specializes in the treatment of trauma with experience working on a specialty inpatient trauma unit. She competed the two-year Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Program through the Denver Institute for Psychoanalysis. She was trained in EMDR in 1995 and uses EMDR and attachment theory regularly in her psychotherapy practice.

At Northwestern University in Chicago, Illinois, she completed both her B.S. in biomedical engineering and her medical degree. During her undergraduate and medical degrees, she completed research in the Departments of Molecular Biology, Physiology and Biomedical Engineering. She completed an internship in Community Medicine and residency training in Psychiatry at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center. Outside the office, Dr. Settle enjoys practicing yoga, skiing, hiking, cooking and watching Downton Abbey. She lives in Denver with her husband and three sons.
