Life Style Medicine

At MBHC, our board-certified psychiatrist integrates the six pillars of lifestyle medicine—nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress management, substance use, and social connection—to support emotional well-being and treat conditions such as anxiety, depression, and burnout. This whole-person model works alongside or in place of traditional medication to promote sustainable mental wellness and long-term resilience.

What is it?

We take a whole-life approach to care, recognizing that your mindset, energy, and mood are deeply shaped by how you eat, sleep, move, manage stress, and connect with others in your daily routine.

Medication is used when needed, but it’s never the focus.

Our goal is to help you build a lifestyle that supports lasting clarity, balance, and emotional resilience.

Testimonials

I feel safe and heard with Dr. Afzal. Her care isn’t just about pills — she helps me explore my thoughts and emotions to get to the root of things.

“I am so thankful that I know now that I am ADHD and that was affecting my relationship. Medication allowed my therapy to start working”

“Dr. Elsamadisi is different. He listens, understand and only gives me what I need. He heard my story in addition to managing my prescription”
