According to the World Health Organization, 450 Million People Struggle With Their Mental Health

  • Life events such as trauma or violence during childhood, whether experienced directly or passed down to subsequent generations through intergenerational trauma.
     

  • Environmental factors like a lack of access to safe and affordable housing, meaningful education and employment, leisure activities, the support of a community, and good access to health care and mental health services.
     

  • Chronic stressors like experiencing death, divorce or serious relationship issues, unemployment or difficulties with work, academic problems, ongoing social/cultural oppression or family dysfunction.

 
 

  • Major depressive and anxiety disorders affect approximately 5% of the Canadian population


 

Over half of people with mental illness don't receive help, avoid or delay seeking treatment for fear of being treated differently, of losing friends, jobs, and/or our livelihood.

Mental health issues are caused by an interplay of many complex factors

In Canada, that represents 1 in 5 Canadians

Stigma, Prejudice, And Discrimination Against People With Mental Illness Is still Very Much A Problem

You’ve worked with therapists that didn’t understand you or were too expensive. It’s hard to invest money in something unmeasurable, like relief from your mental health struggles

You think you should be able to overcome your feelings without professional help, because you don’t have it as bad as others you know

You’re stuck in a bad situation that you cannot change and feel like there is no way out. You think that life shouldn’t be easy because you grew up in a household where there was always struggle

Enough of your life has gone by, being limited by your intense fears and symptoms

Enough restless nights and stressed-out mornings have happened after lying in bed worrying or overthinking or simply just not being able to sleep...

Enough time has passed with you struggling with feeling like you’re not good enough or that you still have to achieve more to “be ok.”

Imagine how your life would change if you could achieve...

Hi, I’m Dr. Chris, ND

As a Naturopathic doctor, people are surprised to hear me talk openly about my mental health struggles. 
 
After taking medication initially prescribed to alleviate depression and anxiety, I swung into a psychotic manic episode and was diagnosed with bipolar disorder type 1. 
 
After surviving a suicide attempt (which left me in a coma with kidney failure), I couldn’t ignore it anymore. I needed to find another way to navigate my mental health that included more than simply taking medications. 
 
The system saved me in my journey by resuscitating me back to life; but I was without that spark, that joie de vive, that skip in my step, until I discovered how to heal using naturopathic medicine. I say that western medicine allowed me to survive, and with naturopathic medicine I now thrive in my life. And the same can be true for you.
 
Now the darkness no longer settles in. I don't fall into the depths of despair as I have tools, strategies, and done the deep inner work to understand how to navigate this journey we call "life."
 
I know that there are powerful, uplifting, and reliable paths toward wellness. Take my hand, and let me guide you on this journey to breaking free from mental health labels.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much time is required?

You’ll be invited to join a weekly live coaching session with me to review that week’s psychoeducational content, ask any questions and share amongst the group. Only those in the VIP group will meet with Dr. Chris.nd on two occasions over the course of the program for 45 min to ensure you have the support you need.
How quickly can I expect to see results?

The negative thoughts and patterns we have built up over our entire lives don’t go away overnight, but you can create new neural pathways if you are committed to addressing core, limiting and shadow beliefs. This experience may poke you in tender places and ask big changes of you. I encourage you to stick with it, dig deep, and commit to the process. After ten weeks, you will have been taught skills to build mental and physical vitality that have the potential to change your life for the better.
Is all of the course content available immediately?

Yes! When you join us, you’ll receive instant access to the course materials.
You can start learning immediately! Please email admin@naturalterrain.com or call the clinic at 587-521-3595 if you need assistance accessing the program.
After the ten weeks have passed, you will keep lifetime access to the strategies and education provided in the course.
How is this different from working with a therapist?

This program does not preclude someone from working with a therapist, in fact, it is recommended that participants continue to work with their health care providers. My lived experience with mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder (type 1) and bulimia have shaped my approach as a naturopathic doctor. I combine teachings from psychology, empathy, mindfulness and compassion to support dealing with our mental health with the biological science behind what we can do to physically support our brain.
What Is Your Refund Policy?

I’ve poured years of experience and training into this course, and it is my sincere wish (and excitement!) that you will find deep insights as you move through the course.
But I’m also realistic in realizing that not everyone is ready to commit to making the necessary changes required for such deep healing. If you feel that the course is touching you in tender places and asking big changes, I encourage you to stick with it, dig deep, and see that even if you can’t get everything out of the course right now, to get what you can, and maybe revisit the information in the future. If you truly don’t feel satisfied or feel that the course is not what you were expecting, you can request a refund within 3 weeks of purchasing the course. All refunds subject to a 20% administration fee based on the cost of the program.
Where Do I Attend The Classes – On Facebook or Zoom?

Live classes are held on Zoom. 

The classes are recorded, and you can watch them later if you miss one. You will have six months to view the live calls, after that, they will not be available.
Will You Give Me Specific Supplement Recommendations?

No. As I am not acting as your naturopathic doctor in this program, specific supplement recommendations for your individual health concerns will not be provided.

Testimonials

“I really want to thank you! I now have a freedom that I never thought I would experience. All the tension and negativity I had towards my extended family is gone. I am free! There are no words for the freedom you have walked me through.  I have had years of therapy to help me with my issues with my extended family and in just 8 weeks, you have given me a freedom I never thought possible. It really is the most amazing feeling on the planet. But it’s not just this situation. I feel more free today than I ever have on a day-to-day basis. I feel hope that I really can kick mental illness to the curb. I just need to say THANK YOU! With much LOVE”

"I always felt incomplete and inadequate after typical therapy sessions. There was always a thread of dependency built.  But when I reviewed Dr. Chris’ NDs course, I could sense the years of research and hard work she put into it. Such a course could not have been created by a person who has not personally experienced mental health challenges.  This is the best investment one can make to take back control of one’s emotional and mental well-being. I am very grateful to Dr. Chris for designing this course which can impact so many lives."
