to psychological health care and nutrition that recognizes the biological uniqueness of each person. This approach is different to conventional medicine in that it is focused on addressing the underlying causes of a problem, instead of simply suppressing symptoms. This approach is evidence based and understands and views the body as an interconnected whole, allowing for a more comprehensive approach to treatment. I emphasize a therapeutic working partnership between myself and my client to help create this personalized approach and have you be a full participant in your own health journey. You are an expert on your own experiences and working collaboratively, emphasizes the importance of this fact. Using a properly prepared whole foods diet along with lifestyle changes and psychological services, I will be able to help you correct nutritional deficiencies and the underlying problems that are causing specific symptoms. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf98b47e17ba3b146fe873c/1545853537447-SN4NLZ1AU7F226JASBTT/20130731_Trade%2B100_0202.jpg Home - The Mind/Body Connection Our mind and body is so intimately connected to each other. Inevitably, our thoughts affect our behaviors and how we feel, and our behaviors and choices affect how we think and how we feel. Did you know that there is an entire nervous system that is in charge of what is called our gut-brain connection? Our guts (our small intestine) produces 80-90% of our brain’s neurotransmitters (i.e. serotonin, oxytocin, etc.) that are in charge of communicating with other organs to help them function the way that they should and are designed to. Neurotransmitters are also responsible for our moods and contribute to how we are thinking. Taking care of our gut means we are also taking care of our brains, contributing to healthy and rational thoughts, and positive moods, and of course, the rest of our bodies. We take care of our gut by feeding our bodies nourishing, nutrient dense whole foods and by ensuring and supporting our digestive processes so that our bodies can break these nutrients down into substances it can use to form energy and help our bodies function the best that they can. Eating the right nutrient dense foods directly affect the quality of our thoughts, our energy levels, and of course, our moods and how we are left feeling. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf98b47e17ba3b146fe873c/1596043285695-OIAUGIO5F90GEZKCT60N/download.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf98b47e17ba3b146fe873c/1596043311927-9WJ84T0IA29YMW4ABLDU/download-1.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf98b47e17ba3b146fe873c/1596043369165-RVDQDPYHUYU6JM0KI4L1/download-2.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf98b47e17ba3b146fe873c/1596043394038-R7HRG85M7NW38DD7GLJH/download-3.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf98b47e17ba3b146fe873c/1617134436251-QFIH49YQBDSG86T1FBCU/download.jpg Home https://www.feedyourmental.com/my-story daily 0.75 2026-03-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf98b47e17ba3b146fe873c/1545852206199-75VF078Y9GWM8G4SJCXW/46374423_2475140932502618_8831371694598782976_n.jpg Feed Your Mental - My Story https://www.feedyourmental.com/services daily 0.75 2026-04-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf98b47e17ba3b146fe873c/1641069381434-D89BDZIHXWPXKHR4W9PR/unsplash-image-ktPKyUs3Qjs.jpg Feed Your Mental - Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf98b47e17ba3b146fe873c/35a224ad-54a5-4e17-b755-d50c1d90be52/unsplash-image-F9DFuJoS9EU.jpg Feed Your Mental - Services - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf98b47e17ba3b146fe873c/347b7f89-9d68-4c8c-b55c-1671842ac30c/MP.jpeg Feed Your Mental - Services - Our Team: Virtual CBT & ERP Therapy Across New York State I’m joined by Martina Persson, LMHC, who is available to see clients immediately for exclusively virtual therapy sessions across New York State.

I’ve been practicing as a licensed Clinical Psychologist in New York for over 10 years. In my clinical work, I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for anxiety and depressive disorders, with additional expertise in the treatment of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD). Throughout my career, I have been committed to evidence-based practice and the responsible translation of psychological science into clinical care. For the past five years, I have also created evidence-based mental health content on social media, helping the public better understand anxiety, depression, and related disorders. As conversations around diet and mental health have grown — often with strong claims and limited nuance — I became increasingly interested in critically examining the research in this area. This training reflects that commitment: to clarity, scientific integrity, and helping clinicians navigate complex and evolving research without overstating what the evidence supports. https://www.feedyourmental.com/home daily 1.0 2026-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf98b47e17ba3b146fe873c/1675373083436-8IF1VG7Q3GQWC54EAP8R/homepage-headwithapplev2-01-01.png Home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf98b47e17ba3b146fe873c/0f5a1584-524b-48ec-8b31-760f15d8df51/46374423_2475140932502618_8831371694598782976_n.jpg Home - I’m Dr. Nicole Lippman, Licensed Clinical Psychologist I’m a licensed clinical psychologist who provides evidence-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and creates science-based mental health education for both professionals and the public.
