Nutrition

In Touch Counseling Services

Psychological Counseling & Wellness Center located in Vancouver, WA

Unlike traditional approaches to mental health, which typically do not look at the connection between a person's diet and their mind, Janelle Adams, MA, LMFT, ATR, and the team at In Touch Counseling Services understand that food is strongly linked to brain health, emotional and physical well-being.

Nutrition

What are Nutrition Services?

Nutrition plays a pivotal role in the treatment philosophy at In Touch Counseling services. We recognize its significance to such an extent that we gather nutrition information during all of our initial evaluations. Moreover, we go the extra mile by offering comprehensive, one-on-one nutrition consultations, led by our highly trained provider.  These consultations aim to create a personalized nutrition plan that caters specifically to your brain and body's needs.

Imagine discovering natural methods to enhance your well-being, reducing or even eliminating the need for medication. Picture overcoming the struggle of losing weight, regardless of the countless attempts you've made. Envision the possibility of optimizing your brain function, improving your mood, and enhancing your behavior, all through the power of food.

When you eat better, your brain and body work better   

Our brain and body rely on the food you eat to provide it with the fuel it needs. When you’re not eating a balanced diet with the right nutrient levels, your brain and body struggle to work the way they should.food is medicine
 
Most people have experienced the headache, upset stomach, or energy crash that often follows bad food choices. But many forget that in the same way nutrition affects your physical well-being, it also plays a key role in the onset as well as severity and duration of mental health symptoms.

WHAT IS YOUR Nutrition IQ?

 What should I expect? 

At In Touch Counseling Services, we know that food can be used as medicine or it can be poison.

 During a hour long initial nutrition evaluation, our trained provider,  an overall health assessment is conducted to understand current nutrition status and overall health. Factors such as habits and practices, genetic make-up, and both internal and external environments are evaluated by your provider to create a dietary plan that includes foods that supercharge your brain function and health status, as well as decrease the daily symptoms that prevent you from living life well. 

In  follow-up appointments, your provider will go over the individualized plan based on your metabolism, activity needs and most importantly your lifestyle that has been designed to accopmlish your goals.

In addition, follow up appointments are used to work along with you to develop strategies that are effective in implementing the plan, goal setting and and tracking and accountability sessions.
