Holistic Integrative Psychiatry

Catholic Faith-Based Mental Health Care

Welcome to Holistic Integrative Psychiatry. Here, Donna Grandi's care goes beyond suppressing symptoms to address the root causes of mental distress, integrating mind, body, and soul. Each treatment plan is personalized to the individual, drawing on evidence-based psychiatry, functional medicine, and lifestyle management to address the challenges across every stage of life. All are welcome, and all are met with respect, compassion, and thoughtful care.

Services

Treatment plans include evaluation, therapy, psychiatry, nutrition, and integrative testing. Care combines faith and science, and plans are revisited as needs change.

Holistic Integrative Therapy

A collaborative approach combining evidence-based techniques from established therapeutic schools. Includes CBT, DBT, trauma-informed Brainspotting, and grief and bereavement support for anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress. The work builds resilience, meaning, and emotional balance.

Holistic Integrative Psychiatry

Comprehensive psychiatric evaluation for mood, attention, and sleep concerns, including the metabolic and thyroid factors that shape them. Non-stimulant and behavioral support is offered for neurodevelopmental differences, and medication, when used, is precise and conservative, never a quick fix. 

 

Women's Health and Wellness

Support for women through hormonal, emotional, and life changes: the early years of puberty, PMS and PMDD, and PCOS; the seasons of fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and loss; and the midlife passage of perimenopause and menopause. The body is honored at every milestone as part of God's design.

Religious Books

Personalized DNA Testing

Identifies mental health-related genetic variances, which helps guide precise choices for medication and other treatment options.

Functional Testing

A clear map of your unique biology: gut microbiome balance, detoxification patterns, comprehensive hormone levels, and essential nutrient levels.

Integral Catholic Therapy

Connects the body and soul by  integrating Catholic faith with modern psychology to facilitate deep healing.

Dignity of the soul

Psychiatry means the healing of the soul. Psychological struggle is not a failure of faith, and suffering is never pathologized. Trauma, grief, and postpartum transitions are walked through with hope, alongside spiritual directors or parish communities when helptul.
