Diet is an often-ignored aspect in the prevention of poor mental health and the promotion of good emotional health. The causes of behavioural health problems are complex, and nutrition is a valuable yet often missing piece of the puzzle to help clients improve their emotional state.
Imagine if you could feel more confident talking with clients about nutrition from a therapist’s point of view, and do so while adhering to our ethical code.
Vicki Steine, DSc, LCSW, BCHN, IFNCP, brings a unique perspective as a licensed social worker with a Doctorate in Holistic Nutrition. She uses an innovate approach to explain key concepts of integrating a cognitive behavioural approach with nutritional strategies to improve treatment outcomes.
