Neuro-Affirming Naturopathic Support for ADHD & Autism (ASD)

Children with ADHD or Autism Spectrum Disorder often face underlying biological stressors that impact their daily participation. By addressing the root cause, we help improve emotional regulation and cognitive clarity.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a naturopathic doctor treat using a "root-cause" approach?
Naturopathic Doctors identify the biological triggers of health issues rather than just managing symptoms. We specialize in hormonal balancing, gut microbiome repair, immune resilience, and pediatric developmental support. Our goal is to create a bio-individualized care plan that addresses your body’s specific needs.
Is Naturopathic care safe for "low-tox" pregnancy and postpartum?
Absolutely. Our NDs prioritize safety above all else, providing evidence-based natural medicine tailored for both parent and baby. We focus on nutrient replenishment to prevent postpartum depletion and manage concerns like gestational blood sugar or lactation support with safe, natural protocols.
How does a naturopath help with ADHD or Autism (ASD)?
We utilize a neuro-affirming framework that focuses on the gut-brain axis. By optimizing nutrition, addressing food sensitivities, and supporting sleep, we help children achieve better nervous system regulation. This integrative approach works alongside other therapies to support the "biological terrain" for focus and calm.
What kind of functional testing do you offer in Richmond Hill?
The New Years offers advanced functional lab testing that provides deeper insights than standard blood work. This includes DUTCH hormone testing, GI-MAP stool analysis, and specialized Pediatric Organic Acids (OAT) or food sensitivity panels.
Are Naturopathic services covered by insurance in Ontario?
Yes. Most extended health benefit plans in Ontario—including SunLife, Manulife, and Canada Life—cover naturopathic consultations. Many families also use their Health Spending Accounts (HSA) for functional testing and recommended professional-grade supplements.
