✨ Have you ever felt stuck in patterns that talk therapy alone just couldn’t shift?

That’s exactly why I’m so passionate about neurofeedback –-> brain training that teaches your nervous system how to function more effectively.

Neurofeedback is about training your brain to regulate itself.

This non-invasive EEG biofeedback approach helps people rise above anxiety, trauma, chronic pain, depression, focus issues, and that foggy, just-not-quite-right feeling many of us carry.

If you’ve tried so many things but still feel like your brain is “out of sync,” neurofeedback could be the shift you’ve been seeking. Ready to train your brain for calm, confidence, and clarity?

What You’re Not Hearing About Cannabis & Mental Health

Sure, cannabis is increasingly viewed as “safe” or even harmless, especially with legalization and mainstream messaging, but the science tells a more nuanced story.

While many people use cannabis without immediate harm, research shows that frequent and high-THC use is linked to rising cases of cannabis-induced psychosis — especially among teens and young adults.

There is a growing mental health concern that makes it more important than ever for clinicians, families, and communities to understand how cannabis use can impact the brain — and how early intervention can make a difference.

👉 I spoke to clinicians this past summer about the need to assess, identify, and treat cannabis-induced psychosis.

As we welcome the New Year, I invite you to shift your focus from fixing your body to understanding your relationship with it.

True transformation begins when we gently unpack the patterns that keep us stuck — the stress that drives emotional eating, the “good vs. bad” food labels that hijack joy, and the frustration of trying everything without lasting peace.

Courage isn’t measured by a number on a scale but by your willingness to listen to your inner experience.

Offer yourself grace, and build skills that support your well-being both mentally and physically. Imagine feeling safe in your body, knowing when to eat because you’re truly hungry, and living a life guided by confidence rather than confusion.

I believe in one's capacity to grow. Not through perfection, but through awareness, presence, and consistent self-compassion.

Here’s to a year of deeper connection with yourself and lasting, meaningful change.

I recently sat down with the Clear Mind Treatment Podcast to talk about mental health, trauma, and recovery — and why understanding the whole person is essential to healing.

We discussed how trauma impacts behavior and emotional health, why recovery looks different for everyone, and the importance of compassionate, evidence-based care.

These are conversations I believe we need to keep having, especially as more individuals and families seek clarity and support.

One of the most common concerns I hear from individuals seeking treatment is, “Can I afford it?” I’m so grateful to share that our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is now covered by most major insurance plans — including Medi-Cal.

This means more people can receive consistent, evidence-based care while continuing to work, parent, and maintain their daily lives.

If you’ve been hesitant to reach out because of cost, my team and I will quickly and confidentially verify your insurance. Call us today: 855-717-3268.

You deserve support, and we’re here to help you take that next step. 💛

As we enter the holiday season, I’m reminded of how many people silently struggle with binge eating.

The pressure to “eat perfectly,” the abundance of food, and the emotional weight the holidays carry can trigger old patterns — shame, secrecy, and overeating as a way to cope.

If this sounds familiar, please hear this: you are not weak, and you are not alone.



Binge eating is not about self-control. It’s often rooted in emotional overwhelm, stress, trauma, and deep-seated patterns of self-soothing. And the holidays amplify all of that.

This season, I’m inviting you to:

🧡 Practice gentle awareness instead of judgment
🧡 Let go of rigid food rules
🧡 Honor your emotional needs
🧡 Reach out for support if you’re struggling

Healing from binge eating is very possible — I see it every day in my practice.

Wishing you a season filled with compassion, presence, and nourishment — in every sense of the word.— Dr. Shari
