106: Be Medicine: Lifestyle Medicine Psychiatrist Dr. Kristen Gialo

Dr. Kristen Gialo completed medical school training at Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She went on to complete residency training in Psychiatry at University of Maryland Medical Center and Sheppard Pratt Hospital. She was Executive Chief Resident during residency and then worked at Sheppard Pratt Hospital specializing in working with patients with psychotic disorders, bipolar disorders, depressive disorders, anxiety disorders and developmental delays. She was a faculty member for the University of Maryland Medical Center Residency program and taught residents and medical students. She often worked with patients that not only had chronic mental illness but also chronic medical illnesses that plagued their everyday lives and served as an obstacle to their goals and happiness. There comes a point as a physician when you recognize that medications alone are not the answer and that health is so much more than just pills. Eighty percent of chronic medical illnesses in the United States are a result of lifestyle concerns such as diet, exercise, stress, lack of social connection, difficulty sleeping and substance use. As a result of this continued observation Dr. Gialo went on to become a Certified Lifestyle Medicine Physician with the American Board of Lifestyle Medicine. She is a RYT-200 certified yoga instructor as well as a Yoga Sculpt certified instructor. She incorporates her knowledge of yoga and mindfulness into her therapeutic practice.With her combined training in Psychiatry and Lifestyle Medicine, she is uniquely equipped to help individuals suffering from not only mental health concerns but also chronic medical illnesses.
