She is a graduate of Bastyr University and completed a 2-year post-graduate training program in integrative women’s health. Dr. Lewis is credentialed by NAMS as a certified menopause practitioner and PSI in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders - the only physician to have this combination of education and training. Practicing since 2003 with a special focus on women’s health, she emphasizes nutrition and exercise in health maintenance and disease prevention and treatment. Dr. Lewis is committed to the mental and physical health of women of all ages and believes that the goal for health and wellness is a matter of progress, not perfection. Education and empowerment can help us take a proactive, preventive approach to the treatment of any condition. At this time, Dr. Lewis has chosen to limit services to a fairly narrow scope to be able to provide truly specialized care in the symptoms and conditions related to hormonal impact on physical and psychological health in perimenopause. In our society, medicine often creates an arbitrary boundary between general medical and psychological health care. In her practice, Dr. Lewis works to bridge this gap in the care of women who are struggling with hormonally-mediated conditions which often present with a combination of both physical and mental symptoms. Dr. Lewis provides care in a truly integrative approach, offering the best of both integrative, evidenced-based treatments depending on patient preferences, goals, risk factors, and severity of symptoms. She has been certified as a menopause specialist since 2012 through the Menopause Society and has done extensive postgraduate training in reproductive mental health through Mass General Center for Women’s Mental Health & Postpartum Support International. ‌ Connect with Dr. Lewis: Website: https://arcadiawomenswellness.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr_leigh_lewis/ 📲 Schedule a clarity call with us!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💪🏻 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join the Women's Weight Loss and Workout Support Facebook group!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 💬 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Got questions?
