Depression is a most insidious thief of your life blood, your motivation, your ability to create your dreams. Unless someone has experienced it, it is very difficult for them to understand what it like. Many people resort to self-medicating if they cannot find relief with standard medications.

Situational depression, major clinical depression, dysthymia, agitated depression, grief, and despair can all be healed. Dr. Hackett uses time-tested methods to support your journey to well-being.

TCM: diagnosis is based upon systemic energetics of how the body-mind regulate in the environment. Treatment: acupuncture, energy healing techniques, light therapy, herbal formulas and nutritional substances are offered as appropriate for your unique situation.

Functional medicine: Science-backed protocols are available of nutritional substances (supplements) that are dosed according to how YOUR system regulates, not stacks of pills as suggested on a label. Most people are taking far too many things at too high of a dose.

Energywork: with depression breathwork and movement are the basis of meditation instruction, to start. Visualization techniques are added over time.

Sometimes it is difficult to see how far you have come because you keep raising the bar. But raising the bar is the point to living your best life, right?

Reflect, project your next trajectory, break old barriers, and move into new territory to redefine your life and/or reinvent yourself. You want to do it, so do it…scared? Do it scared. You can grow into those new steps, which may seem imperceptible until the fruits of your work are obvious to all. Developing patience with process is the key.

Making major changes are more likely to stick if you build toward those changes incrementally. Understanding you “why” list is the start of creating that fundamental strategy for real change and growth.

It is excruciating to see your child in distress or their health not at its optimal level.  There are many reasons for children to experience significant emotional ups and downs. Dr. Hackett can help navigate the possible GI, nutritional, and other functional reasons for their problems.

She focuses on a primarily food-based approach with minimal supplementation from homeopathic, Ayurveda, TCM herbs, and orthomolecular supplements; all at low doses.

We can start your child’s better health journey with testing that you have already had done or strategically select tests so that the focus is on treatment outcomes, not racking up labs. Children tend to respond quickly and very well to the correct treatment.

Some children are open to acupuncture, but most others are shy of it. Dr. Hackett uses Toyahari techniques (Japanese blunt needle to gently stimulate acupuncture points at the skin surface), NIR (near infrared) canopy over the entire table with some cool sunglasses they can wear. You are welcome to share the experience with your child or they can rest under the light on their own. The treatment rooms are large enough that you can attend to your child the entire session. Cupping (10 yrs+) and GuaSha (6mos+) treatments are also available.
