About this Event
NeurishU, a product of New U Therapy Center, invites healthcare professionals to an introduction to our new Functional & Metabolic Psychiatry program.
Therapy and Medic*tion management remain the foundation of mental health care. Functional psychiatry adds a third layer that asks why. It looks beneath the symptoms at how the gut–brain axis, inflammation, nutrient status, blood sugar and metabolism, hormones, and sleep and stress can contribute to depression, anxiety, and other conditions.
What’s included in your evening
🍽️ Dinner. Enjoy a meal with us. Please RSVP so we can plan for everyone.
🍷 Happy hour. Unwind after the workday with drinks and good conversation.
🤝 Networking. Meet therapists, physicians, nurse practitioners and other providers in your area. Make new connections and grow your referral network.
🧠 A practical presentation. Learn about a new option for patients who haven’t fully responded to therapy or Medic*tion, and leave knowing exactly when and how to refer.
Presented by Emiliano Baquir, PMHNP, program lead, this session will cover:
- The core drivers of functional psychiatry: the gut–brain axis, inflammation, nutrients, and metabolism
- How the program works, from comprehensive intake to targeted labs and Medic*tion optimization
- How to identify and refer patients who may benefit
- Your role in a collaborative, team-based model of care
Patients who may benefit include those with a partial response to therapy or Medic*tion, Medic*tion side effects or interest in tapering, co-occurring GI symptoms, fatigue, or brain fog, and those seeking a root-cause, whole-body approach.
