Dr. Nahas is a board-certified pediatrician with over 30 years of experience caring for children and adolescents in Newton and surrounding counties in GA . She takes a comprehensive, root-cause approach to pediatric care, blending conventional medicine with functional and integrative strategies to support long-term healing and resilience. Her practice focuses on nutrition, immune system regulation, gut health, environmental triggers, and neuropsychiatric developmental support. Dr. Nahas creates practical, individualized care plans and partners closely with parents to reduce symptom burden while supporting each child’s natural healing capacity.
Her interest in functional pediatric psychiatry grew after noticing a rising prevalence of ADHD and Autism in her patient population. As more families sought fewer medications and more natural solutions, she pursued advanced training in functional medicine to better address underlying contributors such as inflammation, nutritional deficiencies, immune dysregulation, and environmental exposures.
In her current private virtual practice in St. Petersburg, Florida, Dr. Nahas uses detailed clinical histories, functional lab testing, and symptom pattern analysis to guide personalized care plans for children with both acute and chronic conditions. Treatment plans may include targeted nutritional strategies, lifestyle guidance, immune system support, gut health protocols, and selective supplementation when appropriate.
Families appreciate her clear communication, collaborative style, and practical recommendations that fit real life. Progress is tracked over time, with goals centered on improving energy, focus, mood, digestion, immune resilience, and overall quality of life.
Dr. Nahas frequently supports children with asthma, eczema, headaches, abdominal pain, autoimmune conditions like PANS/PANDAS, and neurodevelopmental concerns such as ADHD and Autism, working with families to reduce symptom recurrence and support long-term wellness.
Dr. Nahas believes that when the body is supported with proper nutrition and harmful triggers are identified and removed, children can regain health naturally. Her goal is to treat the root cause of dysfunction—not just suppress symptoms—by understanding what is happening at a deeper biological level and creating individualized, preventive, and healing care plans for each child.
