“A Shift In Mindset”

 

“It’s so easy as “the doctor” to slip into a doctor-patient relationship that’s built around the doctor’s wants and beliefs for the patient, prescribing changes or protocols that might be ideal for that individual, but are not congruent with where the patient is currently at. As a practitioner new to Functional Medicine, I often find myself over preparing before a patient appointment, pre-determining what the outcome needs to be, deciding what the patient will need to do, take, or change. Some of this planning is necessary and important as their health guide, to lead them down a path of health and healing but, many times it lacks the patient’s input and inhibits their willingness to change, and feel “seen”. This one sided approach is not a therapeutic partnership and will most likely not lead to the outcomes we all desire. Kara helped me adjust my mindset, although small, has a profound impact on the potential for the patient to feel  “seen” and to begin the healing process through a therapeutic partnership with the doctor, coaches, and your practice.”
