FUNCTIONAL PSYCHIATRY
Functional Psychiatry: The Next Evolution in Integrative and Holistic Mental Health Care
At Enterhealth, we’ve always believed in treating the whole person—not just symptoms. Now, we’ve integrated functional psychiatry, a specialized form of functional medicine and integrative psychiatry, into our holistic addiction and mental health treatment.
This advanced, science-backed approach enhances our dual diagnosis care by helping us uncover not just what a patient is experiencing, but why. By focusing on the underlying causes—rather than just surface-level symptoms—we can deliver more targeted, effective treatment that’s grounded in real answers, not assumptions.
Using physiological data—including brain chemistry, genetics, nutrition, and metabolic function—we develop personalized, results-driven treatment plans tailored to your unique needs.
Functional psychiatry allows us to identify and address the root causes of depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders. It’s how we begin treatment at Enterhealth—guiding every decision with greater precision and personalization to support long-term recovery.
How It Works: A More Complete Picture of Your Health
Effective treatment begins with understanding exactly what’s happening—and why. Your recovery at Enterhealth starts with comprehensive, objective diagnostic assessments that uncover the biological and psychological factors impacting your mental health and addiction.
Our multidisciplinary team uses cutting-edge evaluations to provide a full, integrated view of your health. These assessments include:
Biological & Neurological Assessments
- Brain chemistry – Measures neurotransmitters and biomarkers tied to chemical imbalances that can impact mood, anxiety, and addiction.
- Brain electricity & activity – Tools like QEEG brain mapping analyze brainwave patterns linked to cognitive and emotional function.
- Nutritional & metabolic diagnostics – Identifying vitamin, mineral, and amino acid deficiencies that affect mood, focus, and energy.
- Hormone & stress testing – Evaluating cortisol, thyroid, and other hormone levels influencing mood, energy, and cravings.
- Gut health & inflammation markers – Examining microbiome composition and inflammatory levels to detect underlying contributors to anxiety, depression, and addiction risk.
- Genetic & biochemical screening – Understanding your genetic makeup to predict treatment response, medication sensitivities, and biological vulnerabilities.
- Environmental exposure & toxicity tests – Assessing how external factors like heavy metals or toxins may be worsening your symptoms or complicating recovery.
Psychological & Cognitive Evaluations
- Neuropsychological evaluations – Assessing cognitive function, memory, emotional processing, and executive function to better understand psychiatric and addiction disorders.
Lifestyle & Social Assessments
- Comprehensive lifestyle/social evaluation – Understanding how stressors, relationships, daily habits, and past experiences impact your emotional and mental health.
Medical History & Additional Advanced Diagnostics
- Medical history review – Providing context on past medical conditions, treatments, and their ongoing impact.
- Additional advanced diagnostics as needed, based on individual findings, to fully clarify your unique health picture.
But these assessments aren’t just diagnostics—they directly inform and guide your entire treatment process. They ensure your recovery isn’t based on assumptions, but on real, measurable data about your health.
From Assessment to Action: How Functional Psychiatry Fits into an Integrated Treatment Model
Insights gained through comprehensive assessments become the foundation of your personalized recovery plan. Functional psychiatry doesn’t replace traditional methods—it enhances them by integrating objective diagnostics with evidence-based therapies and holistic strategies.
Based on your specific diagnostic findings, personalized treatment plans may incorporate:
- Targeted therapy & counseling to provide emotional and psychological support, develop coping strategies, and foster lasting behavioral change.
- Medication strategies tailored to your biology and informed by testing, designed to safely and effectively support your recovery.
- Nutritional and dietary interventions to correct deficiencies and stabilize mood and cravings.
- Targeted supplementation to support brain function, energy, and overall health.
- Lifestyle modifications to strengthen emotional resilience and reduce relapse triggers.
- Mindfulness, movement, and other holistic techniques to support emotional and physical wellness.
This personalized approach isn’t guesswork—it’s about applying precise, individualized interventions based on your unique health data.

Why A Functional Psychiatry Approach Makes a Difference
