Introducing ViewPointe 1101 N. Royale CHILD, ADOLESCENT AND FAMILY THERAPY Children may respond best to play therapy because it is the language of children. Engaging them in games or fantasy play allows them to express problems in a non-threatening, fun, and effective way. Children and adolescents also benefit from direct discussion of their problems. Engaging the whole family is an important part of working with children and adolescents. John R.Lorenz, MD, MSC, has a diverse background and believes in treating the whole patient medically, psychologically and nutritionally. He is an advocate of lifelong education and has attended numerous seminars on the latest treatments and conventional treatment and diagnosis. Trained in Eye Movement Desensitizing (EMDR), Lorenz has seen troubled or traumatized children, adolescents, rape victims and war veterans alike find relief in much shorter time periods through EMDR than through conventional treatment. He works closely with the professional counselors and Psychologists at ViewPointe treating couples, children, adolescents, adults, geriatrics and veterans.

WE ARE DEDICATED TO CARING FOR YOUR MENTAL & EMOTIONAL HEALTH Suffering from a mental illness like depression, anxiety, memory loss or other effects of brain injury, trauma or mental or physical health disorder? We can help. SOME AREAS OF OUR EXPERTISE • Addictions • Adult, Child & Geriatric Psychiatry • PTSD, ADHD, ODD, OCD • Anxiety, Mood Disorders • Behavioral Medicine According to the American Psychiatric Association, one-fifth of American adults suffer from a diagnosable mental illness each year. The same percentage of school children also suffer from these conditions. A patient’s mental health is important to overall wellness, and our counselors, psychologists and psychiatrists educate patients about the mental disorders affecting their lives and offer the highest level of care to manage these conditions. Your life can be better and we can help. Y O U D E S E RV E H A P P I N E S S Do you remember when you last felt happy and healthy? We don’t believe that should be something in the past, but rather in the immediate future and throughout the rest of your life. A shopping trip, pedicure, spa day or other little quick pick-me-up may ease your distress temporarily, but, the ViewPointe “mental” spa approach can reap rewards that last a lifetime. You might be surprised to know that it often takes only one or two appointments with our counselors, psychiatrist or psychologist for you to begin to regain your happy, healthy self. At ViewPointe, we believe it is time to put your needs at the top of your “to-do” list. We know you will be happy you did and those around you will notice your improved perspective on life. Anxiety and stress can be totally debilitating. It simply doesn’t need to be that way. Call today to start taking control of your health and happiness.

TRADITIONAL Trained and experienced in conventional “talk therapy”, we discuss concerns based on your personal history, circumstances, and resources. We then work together toward resolving problems. NUTRITION AND MEDICATION Our approach is to treat the whole patient, paying attention to nutritional and psychological needs alike. Often a chemical imbalance contributes to other underlying causes of a disorder. By tailoring the use of nutritional supplements and medication as indicated for symptoms including pain, we are able to better treat each patient according to their individual nature. EMDR Trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitizing Treatment), Dr. Lorenz has seen troubled and traumatized children, adolescents, rape victims, and war victims. EMDR offers faster relief in shorter time periods than most conventional treatments.
