<p> I’m thrilled to welcome Dr. Ellen Vora to the podcast! Her holistic approach to healing deeply resonates with my own journey through vertigo. As a psychiatrist with a B.A. from Yale and an M.D. from Columbia, Dr. Vora passionately navigates the complexities of mental health treatment. She highlights how conventional methods can often lead to a cycle of multiple prescriptions, stressing the importance of addressing root causes rather than merely managing symptoms. As the author of The Anatomy of Anxiety and Season of the Witch, she shares her personal experiences, including transformative moments in Bali that inspired her advocacy for a functional medicine approach that considers the whole person. Specializing in depression, anxiety, insomnia, and women’s mental health, Dr. Vora combines her board-certified psychiatric training with insights from integrative and functional medicine, along with her unique backgrounds as an acupuncturist and yoga teacher.
