Dr. Lisa J Trigg - Directory

My work is grounded in the nursing wellness paradigm from which I practice general psychiatry for adults and older adults. I specialize in the care and treatment of persons with complex, co-morbid mental health and medical conditions. I practice on the assumption that so called “mental health” conditions arise from the physical body within an overall cultural and spiritual context. I provide care from a wholeness/holistic perspective, using approaches from traditional psychiatry including psychopharmacology, nutritional psychiatry, functional/integrative psychiatry. I include life skills and general life coaching to provide care to persons with attention deficit conditions, mood disorders such as bipolar disorder and mono-polar or unipolar depression, thought disorders such as schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder, anxiety, and substance use disorders when they are CO-MORBID or occur with other mental health conditions. I also have a subspecialty in the care of older adults including symptoms that occur in normal aging as well as cognitive decline and dementia.
