When patients have been on a carousel of medications for decades without finding relief, there may be a deficiency in a hidden (less well-known) neurotransmitter system that could be undermining mental health. Why would this neurotransmitter system be overlooked? How can we support patients holistically to restore and improve this neurotransmitter system, rather than treat it with another drug? Explore answers to these questions in this article.

For the past two decades, I have been interweaving functional, energy, and allopathic medicine into a cohesive healing approach. This article explains how I integrated energy medicine into my holistic psychiatric approach to help my patients come off their medications. The Energy Field, a published magazine from the Association of Comprehensive Energy Psychology, invited me to summarize my work in a nutshell.

SSRIs are best known for their effects on neurotransmitters, but their influence extends deeper into the body. This article explains how these medications—and especially the withdrawal process—can disrupt key hormonal systems that regulate stress, sleep, and overall well-being. Understanding this hidden connection can make SSRI withdrawal safer and more manageable for both patients and clinicians.

On August 19, 2025, my office moved near downtown Stamford, Connecticut. My new location is in a beautiful, cherry tree-lined residential neighborhood, a block away from Stamford Hospital, a five-minute drive from the Metro North train station, and a 20-minute drive to the HPN/White Plains airport. Read on to learn more about how I used energy techniques to support the positive social changes I wanted.

Energy healing techniques can work remarkably well, but then “stop working” after a few days. In this article, I share a new, 20-second method to reactivate the benefits of an energy healing session using a simple “copy and paste” method. This method allows patients to replicate the benefits of a previous effective energy session.

Story Form, an advanced form of the Infinite Intention Technique, uses metaphor, visualization, and story to heal. In this podcast, a recorded healing session uses the metaphor of a carnival fun house to help patients process disorienting and chaotic experiences. The patient found the experience so immersive and healing that she lost track of time during the session but emerged feeling grounded and calm.

Today’s podcast uses Story Form to support and heal those who have experienced chronic and repetitive traumas, health problems, or challenges that have undermined their self-confidence in being self-sufficient. Listen to this recording of the Story Form session to help you live a self-sufficient and independent life and accomplish all that you have deeply desired. Following the actual session, the patient demonstrated increased confidence and readiness to become more independent.

In this episode of the Holistic Psychiatrist Podcast, Dr. Lee introduces a powerful energy healing technique (EET) to help release the emotional burden caused by political stress.

In this episode of the Holistic Psychiatrist Podcast, Dr. Lee explores the complex issue of protracted psychiatric medication withdrawal and its long-term effects on the body. She explains how factors like genetics, immune response, and improper tapering contribute to chronic symptoms. Dr. Lee also shares her holistic healing approach, including energy medicine techniques and targeted nutritional support, to help patients recover.

For years, I believed that healing the mind was the key to overcoming mental illness. But true healing, I’ve discovered, begins within the heart. Emotional healing holds the key to lasting transformation, and when we resolve emotional wounds with love and openness, real change becomes possible.
