An effective, evidence-based guide for preventing, treating, and overcoming depression--without drugs.
Jodie Skillicorn, DO, is an osteopathic physician board certified in Psychiatry and a diplomat of Integrative Holistic Medicine. She integrates conventional medical training with evidence-based holistic methods that include breath-work, meditation, yoga, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), Mind-Body Medicine, energy medicine, nutrition, exercise, and auricular acupuncture at her private practice. She lives in Akron, OH with her husband, two kids, two cats, and dog.
“The unfortunate reality is that the majority of patients treated
with medications
for depression fail to recover. In this insightful new work, Dr.
Skillicorn shares
her holistic prescriptions on how to live a fuller and
depression-free life. This is
a must-read in my clinic.”
—JOEL KAHN, MD, FACC, author of The Plant-Based Solution
“While there are dozens of self-help books on depression, Dr.
Skillicorn has done
a masterful job of explaining principles of neuroscience and how
they work to
create new neural pathways for healing depression. Neuroplasticity
is the name of
the game, and Dr. Skillicorn presents meticulous research about the
need to look
beyond ‘diagnose and adios’ medicine to help each individual
develop his or her own
customized program of activities and nutrition so that the brain
can heal itself organically without dangerous medication.
Whether you are a doctor, patient, or seeking help for someone
you care about, you will find the help you seek in these
pages.”
—LAURIE NADEL, PhD, author of The Five Gifts: Discovering Hope,
Healing, and Strength When Disaster Strikes
“Medication is not the right answer for everyone. It wasn’t for me.
The tools in this book show people so many other options that
work without the negative side effects. Healing Depression
without Medication brings back hope to what can feel like a
hopeless diagnosis. It needs to be the standard for all trained
mental health professionals and people suffering from
depression.”
—RACHAEL WOLFF, self-awareness coach and author of Letters from a
Better Me
