Wellness & Weight Management in Sunrise, FL
Improve mental health through sustainable weight and wellness. The relationship between weight and mental health is bidirectional — psychiatric medications can cause weight gain, while excess weight worsens depression, anxiety, and hormonal imbalances. At Peace & Heart Wellness, we address both sides simultaneously with an integrated approach that produces lasting results.
Integrate nutrition, hormones, and behavior for lasting mind-body results. Our wellness program begins with comprehensive lab testing to identify hormonal, metabolic, and nutritional factors driving weight challenges. We then create a personalized plan that may include hormone optimization, medication adjustment, nutritional guidance, and behavioral strategies tailored to your specific biology.
Sunrise's working families often face barriers to consistent mental health care — insurance navigation, work schedules, and cultural hesitancy. Our practice accepts most major insurance plans and offers flexible scheduling including telehealth to ensure Sunrise residents can access the psychiatric care they need.
Unlike quick-fix diet programs, our approach treats the root causes of weight challenges. Thyroid dysfunction, cortisol imbalances, insulin resistance, and sex hormone deficiencies all directly impact weight — and all respond to targeted medical treatment. We test for these factors before recommending any weight management intervention.
