LUV Brain Chemistry Testing & Mental Health Support
Did you know that mental health is related to neurotransmitter, hormonal, nutritional and other biochemical markers in the body? Research is showing that the best improvements in mental health are from integrative approaches, meaning MIND, BODY and SOUL are all components of the treatment plan. The intersection of science and spirituality is where integrative medicine for mental health is making a profound impact. At LUV Healing, our team is multi-disciplinary, and we work together to address all levels of healing.
A powerful tool in integrative mental health treatment is comprehensive brain chemistry testing and personalized support to help you understand and rebalance your mental and emotional health from the inside out. Brain chemistry plays a crucial role in mood, focus, energy, sleep, motivation, and stress resilience. When neurotransmitter levels such as serotonin, dopamine, GABA, and norepinephrine are out of balance, it can contribute to symptoms like anxiety, depression, irritability, brain fog, lack of motivation, reduced capacity and resilience, and low energy.
Using specialized lab testing— via simple at-home urine or saliva collection kits—we will assess key brain chemistry and hormone levels to get a clearer picture of your neurochemical profile. This data helps us identify potential imbalances and design a targeted, individualized plan to support optimal brain function, mental health and emotional well-being
Individualized Holistic Care
Treatment may include specific amino acid therapy, nutritional support, herbal medicine, lifestyle modifications, clinical counseling, hypnotherapy and stress management techniques, all tailored to restore balance in your nervous system. Our approach is integrative and root-cause focused, aligning with naturopathic principles to support the whole person—mind and body.
Whether you're dealing with chronic mood concerns or simply seeking to improve cognitive clarity and emotional balance, our online brain chemistry support offers accessible, science-based care in a compassionate, collaborative environment.

Hello!
I am Dr. Tia, a naturopathic doctor here at LUV Healing.
As a Naturopathic Doctor, I aim to make my patients feel supported and empowered to improve their health no matter what step they are at. I am trauma-informed and evidence-based, using both my medical education and the principles of naturopathic medicine like treating the root cause of illness, removing obstacles or barriers to your healing to offer holistic healing and aligning the mind and the body together.
My goal as a doctor is to create a space that is collaborative, educational, empathetic, and judgment-free.
I am most passionate about seeing and helping patients who are struggling with: -PCOS and other hormonal conditions -ADHD and associated conditions -Mental health conditions -Nutritional deficiencies -Insomnia and sleep problems -Burnout and overwhelm
As someone who is neurodiverse (I was diagnosed with ADHD in adulthood), I understand how difficult it can be to function in a world that wasn’t built for brains that work differently.
Working with neurodiversity, mental health, and trauma, I feel it’s important to meet you where you are at to create healthy changes that feel not only doable for you now but also sustainable in the long term. I use elements of both Western medicine (pharmaceuticals, lab testing, and IV therapy) and herbal medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, nutrition, and counselling to provide personalized care that suits you and your unique needs.
Another area of passion for me is health care for LGBTQIA2S+ and gender-diverse communities. I strongly believe everyone deserves to feel safe, supported, and comfortable to discuss all aspects of their health in a judgment-free space. I will always support human rights and work to be as inclusive as possible for BIPOC, LGBTQIA2S+, sex workers, disabled people, and other oppressed minorities as well as continue to learn and confront my own biases.
