HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT

Why Conventional Approaches Might Not Be Enough

If you've tried medication or therapy and still don’t feel like yourself, you're not alone.

Conventional Psychiatry

✔️ May improve symptoms with medication, especially short-term relief

Can take months or years to find the right medication and dosage

Often focuses on symptom relief, not root causes—so issues may resurface

Rarely includes nutrition, lifestyle, or lab testing that could reveal hidden imbalances

Doesn’t address past trauma or nervous system dysregulation

Appointments are often short, leaving you feeling like just another number

Talk Therapy

✔️ Offers emotional support and can help you feel less alone in your struggles


✔️ Can help you explore relational patterns, trauma, and thought-based stressors

May not explore physical root causes like inflammation, hormones, or nutrient deficiencies

Some clients find it hard to “talk their way out” of chronic mood or energy issues

May not address nervous system dysregulation or somatic trauma

Can feel never-ending, you talk, but nothing changes

The Grounded Approach™

✔️ Addresses the root causes of mental health symptoms using functional testing and personalized care


✔️ Combines the best of science & compassion: genetic & functional testing, lifestyle optimization, and nervous system support


✔️ Explores trauma, hormones, sleep, inflammation, and nutrient imbalances


✔️ Includes personalized supplement plans and safe support for deprescribing when appropriate

✔️ Honors your story while helping you feel empowered, not pathologized


✔️ Designed for real transformation, not just symptom management

Get to Know Our Treatment Process

Grounded Psychiatry offers thoughtful, high-touch mental health care rooted in biology, nervous system regulation, and long-term optimization. Not guesswork.

Our approach prioritizes understanding the “why” behind your symptoms, not masking them or creating new problems.

Every treatment plan is created with care, without pressure or rushed decisions.

Next Steps

If this approach resonates, the first step is scheduling a discovery call to explore whether working together is the right fit.

The $50 discovery call fee is applied to your intake if you move forward.

  • Client Love

    "I started seeing Jessica early last year and told her that I truly wanted to come off of my depression medication safely if at all possible. Jessica is well educated in the use of natural vitamins and lifestyle changes to treat my depression, mood swings, and at times anxiety. What impressed me most was Jessica’s willingness to provide resources to educate me about what to expect and at NO time pressured me to convert to vitamins from medication. Every time we met, I would advise Jessica of how I was feeling and she always listened and offered multiple options of how we could best get me to a better place. Currently, I am on no medications, ONLY vitamins, and I have honestly never felt better."

    "Jessica, you have always been so kind and understanding! Today, you have surpassed that kindness toward me. Not only with your compassion, but with your great extent of medical knowledge. Putting the two together has truly given me hope! Thank you for truly caring!"


    A strong survivor

  • Client Love

    "I want to say thank you for all your help. It was really life changing to take FMLA and go to outpatient treatment in 2023. This past year is the first time in about a decade that I've been living without depression. I do not have the words for how grateful I am for your care, your expertise, and the treatment I've received from you and others as a result of your suggestion that I do outpatient treatment. Thank you so much."

    "I’ve been struggling with pain from my traumatic past for decades. Thank you for listening to me, believing me, caring about me, and helping me along my healing journey. In 30 years, I haven’t had anyone, let alone a mental health provider, care about me and my wellbeing more than you! Thank you!"


    A resilient mother

  • Client Love

    "I cannot recommend Jessica Kettell highly enough. From my very first appointment, she created a safe, understanding, and compassionate space where I felt truly heard. Her expertise, patience, and thoughtful approach have made a profound difference in my mental health journey. One of the most impactful aspects of my care with Jessica was her guidance in safely transitioning off antidepressants after five years. She provided clear, step-by-step support throughout the process, ensuring I felt confident and well-supported every step of the way. Her extensive knowledge of vitamins and supplements also played a key role in my treatment, offering natural and effective alternatives to support my overall well-being."
