It’s an approach that recognizes how energy systems—glucose/insulin signaling, mitochondria, sleep/circadian rhythm, inflammation, and nutrient status—shape mood, attention, and resilience.
We consider the bidirectional relationship between mind and body—how sleep, stress, chronic pain, gut health, and autonomic balance can affect psychiatric symptoms and medication response.
History, symptoms, prior meds, side effects, sleep, pain, and medical factors inform a plan that fits you.
Medications selected for your goals and tolerability; we minimize risky interactions and polypharmacy.
Start-low/go-slow when needed; measured follow-ups to fine-tune dosing and track outcomes.

At CareSync Psych, we approach food addiction through the lens of metabolic psychiatry and compassionate behavioral therapy. Healing begins by syncing the mind and body.
Psychotherapy and Mindfulness-Based Interventions to explore emotional triggers, perfectionism, and shame.
Metabolic and Nutritional Assessment to stabilize blood sugar, reduce inflammation, and restore neurotransmitter balance.
Medication-Assisted and Supplement Support (when indicated) targeting dopamine or serotonin pathways.
Lifestyle and Behavioral Strategies including stress management, movement, and restorative sleep to reset the body’s reward systems.
Recovery isn’t about deprivation—it’s about reclaiming control, reconnecting with internal hunger and fullness cues, and healing the relationship with both food and self.
Food addiction is not a weakness—it’s a neurobiological reality rooted in survival mechanisms that have been hijacked by modern food environments. Understanding it as both a mental health and metabolic issue allows for deeper compassion and more effective treatment.
At CareSync Psych, we believe recovery begins when you stop blaming yourself and start treating both your brain chemistry and emotional wounds together—because healing happens when mind and body finally sync.
Clarify goals, history, and medical context (sleep, nutrition, pain, autonomic symptoms).
Choose an evidence-based medication path plus simple, doable mind–body supports.
Adjust dose, track outcomes and side effects, coordinate care as you prefer.
Reinforce routines that keep gains: sleep regularity, stress tools, realistic activity.

Glucose and Hypometabolism Cerebral glucose hypometabolism refers to a reduction in the brain’s ability to metabolize glucose, the primary source of neuronal energy. Because neurons have limited capacity for energy storage, consistent glucose supply is essential for proper cognitive, emotional, and behavioral function. When metabolism slows, neurons become less active, leading to impaired neurotransmission, synaptic […]
MoreFor decades, psychiatry has focused heavily on neurotransmitters—serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine—as the “big three” of mental health. But new science is showing that the mind is not separate from the body. Instead, our mental health is tightly linked with our diet, metabolism, and even the way our mitochondria produce energy. This growing field—metabolic psychiatry—is reshaping how […]
MoreWe currently offer medication-based appointments, metabolic psychiatry appointments & therapy. We encourage pairing meds, therapy and lifestyle intervention for a combined approach.
Yes—decisions follow clinical guidelines and research, balanced with your history, goals, and medical context.
Absolutely. We can start low/go slow, monitor closely, and consider sleep, stress, and pain factors that affect tolerability.
