For the Client Who Isn't Getting Better🔍

We’ve all had those cases where every modality fails and the client feels "stuck." Often, the missing piece is biological resilience.

Is it an Ethical to discuss biology and a client's food?

If a client’s anxiety is actually a physiological response to hypoglycemia, is it ethical to treat it purely as a psychological disorder? 🧐

In this 6-hour seminar, Dr. Eric Ström and Dr. Kristen Allott will help you feel confident on how to discuss with your clients physical causes or physical aggravators of psychological disorders.

We explore the responsibility of the clinician to recognize when "psychiatric" symptoms have physical roots. Eric Ström and I will guide you through the ethical integration of body and psyche, ensuring your wellness treatment plans are as comprehensive as they are compliant.

Dr. Kristen Allott, ND, MS, L.Ac., explores the critical neurobiological intersection of the Polyvagal Ladder and Internal Family Systems (IFS), illustrating how metabolic instability from inconsistent meals can fundamentally shift a client's emotional tone. By examining the physiological "hardware" beneath the psychological "software," Dr. Allott provides clinicians with evidence-based nutritional strategies to stabilize the prefrontal cortex. Attendees will gain a practical framework for using food as a tool to re-engage the "responsive brain," offering a foundational biological intervention to mitigate acute mental health conditions and emotional volatility.

Mental Health Therapists: It is Hard to Update the Software if the Hardware is Crashing

Talk therapy is "software" for the mind, but it won’t work if the "hardware" (the brain) is out of fuel. I’ll be sharing how to identify when a client’s "Lizard Brain" is being triggered by low glucose and aggravating past trauma.

We will review the connection brain fuel (food and meals) has to the polyvagal ladder and Inner Family Systems (IFS) theories and practice.

I’ll teach you how to use simple, nutritional rapid-response tools—like the "Lizard Brain Treat"—to stabilize your client’s physiology so they can actually engage in the deep work of therapy. 🧠🍏

Practice Boldly (and Legally) with Your Responsive Brain Engaged!

Many clinicians avoid discussing a client’s physical health because they fear overstepping their professional scope.

Eric Ström, JD, PhD, LMHC, is here to clear the fog. He’ll explain exactly how to stay within your legal scope of practice while still addressing the "whole person."

Dr. Kristen Allott, ND, MS, L.Ac will discuss the connection between the Polyvagal Ladder, Inner Family Systems, and how inconsistent meals shift the emotional tone. In the seminar, she will provide effective food tools to engage the responsive brain and decrease acute mental health conditions.
