Acupuncture is recognized as an effective therapy for depression by the World Health Organization. In many cases, a combination of traditional acupuncture and low doses of antidepressants are an effective alternative to high doses of antidepressant drugs that may have more severe side effects. Insight Choices offers acupuncture with our licensed Acupuncturist Sang Hyun Lee who has experience treating patients with anxiety, depression, insomnia, PTSD, and ADHD through the use of oriental medicine.

The Mental Health Parity Act, currently known as the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, was first introduced in 1996 and was amended twice since then to include more behavioral health benefits for beneficiaries. So why does it feel like it is more difficult for patients to access mental health care? Join Insight Choices and @carenodes for a one-hour virtual Provider Guidance Session this Thursday, August 13 at 2 pm (PST).

Insight Choices' Team Member: Dr. Rose Nikravesh is an enthusiastic and caring psychiatrist who takes a more holistic approach to care for the mind and the body. Her very first college class was an introductory course to basic psychology at UCLA and that is when her interest in mental health was sparked. As a medical student at Western University of Health Sciences, she experienced working in a variety of local hospitals where she became more curious about how the mental heal...th of medical students affected their performance. She also researched how the workload of medical residents affected their patient care and if these effects carried on with them long term. Dr. Nikravesh has a warm and personable style that is important in building meaningful therapeutic alliances. She describes herself as a lifelong student and is always trying to educate herself about new and alternative ways to help her patients. Her main goal is to make her patients feel comfortable and to allow them to participate in making the best decisions for themselves. www.insightchoices.com/new-patient/ #BIPOCMentalHealthAwarenessMonth #BIPOCMentalHealthMonth #MinorityMentalHealthMonth #minoritymentalhealth #mentalhealth #psychiatry #humanbehavior #medicalschool #burnout #mind
