Trauma Dr. Higgins discusses how epigenetics can reveal the lasting effects of trauma on the brain and body. Trauma, whether from childhood, addiction, or significant life events, has a profound impact on our mental and physical health. With genetic insights, we can better understand how trauma has affected our genes and how to repair the damage through personalized, precision-based care. This approach goes beyond traditional therapies by focusing on the genetic factors that influence trauma responses. Learn More About How Trauma Affects Your Health

Anti-Depressants One of the critical topics Dr. Higgins addresses is the limitation of traditional treatments, particularly anti-depressants like SSRIs. While these medications can help some individuals, they often come with side effects and limited long-term success. By analyzing biomarkers and genetic variations, Dr. Higgins demonstrates how genetic testing can provide a more accurate and individualized approach to behavioral wellness—helping to avoid unnecessary medications and improving outcomes.

Mental Health Mental health challenges, from anxiety to depression and bipolar disorder, are often deeply connected to our genetic makeup. Dr. Higgins explores how personalized support plans that incorporate genetic testing can provide insights into why certain conditions develop and how they can be treated more effectively. By focusing on a person’s unique genetic blueprint, mental health professionals can move beyond generic prescriptions to create tailored interventions that address the root causes of disorders.

Resilience Building resilience is key to overcoming addiction, trauma, and mental health challenges. Dr. Higgins explains how genetic and epigenetic factors affect a person’s ability to cope with stress, setbacks, and adversity. Through genetic testing, individuals can uncover the genetic markers linked to resilience and use this information to develop stronger coping strategies and healthier lifestyles. Personalized plans designed to improve resilience can help individuals not only survive but thrive through life’s toughest challenges. How to Build Greater Resilience

Biomarkers Biomarkers are key to understanding individual health & wellness at a deeper level. In this episode, Dr. Higgins highlights the power of biomarker testing to assess a range of health & wellness complexities —ranging from nutrient deficiencies to hormonal imbalances and neurotransmitter dysfunctions.
