My Story
After 2 decades of suffering just like you are now, I figured out the missing pieces and what was blocking my healing despite my formidable commitment to getting well.
Since then, I noticed something.
Many people who are suffering with intractable symptoms have considerable strengths and tenacity, and they are able to use their gifts and perseverance to succeed at whatever they put their mind to… except their own healing.
In fact, it’s often the change agents – gifted artists, thought leaders, compassionate helping professionals – whose symptoms are the most complex to unravel.Â
You may even already believe in the body’s innate ability to heal, have a holistic mindset, and have made many of the lifestyle adjustments that promote healing.
But like me, you may be doing many of the right things in the wrong way.
The irony is brutal.Â
You have immense gifts to offer the world and a passion to use them to make a positive impact. You value deep engagement in all aspects of your life. You are capable of so much.
But you are stymied by this one issue that is so thoroughly part of you, and yet seems entirely out of your control. You just need to resolve your health problems so you can get on with making your mark and living fully.
That’s why I created Chronic To Cured – to set free people just like you, so you can turn your attention back to making the world a better place. I want to help you avoid all the missteps and detours I took because I just didn’t know. Â
Up until now, no one has taught you how to leverage your gifts and passion
for your own healing. Â
Â
This is what I am here to
teach you.
All you need to do is find some hope – one final time – that this is the treatment that will work. In fact, it’s the only one that ever would, because it’s you doing it. It’s not a magic wand, a quick fix. You’ll need to use the same dedication you’ve used to get where you are in life. It’ll be work. (That’s how you can trust that this is the real answer, and not another gimmick or temporary fix.)
 But it’s good work – work on your own behalf. And at the end of it, you’ll have your body back, but way more than that besides. You’ll have a life you love more than you could have imagined, free to follow the dreams you had started to give up on.
The sooner you start, the sooner you’ll get there…

At heart, I'm a teacher.
First it was tennis & volleyball, then ESL & trauma awareness, then relational & emotional regulation skills to solo clients, couples, and groups.
And now... how to UNLEARNÂ pain.
It's the perfect alchemy of my early fascination with the mind-body connection, my training and experience working with complex cases as a psychotherapist, and the deep personal learning acquired during my own healing journey.Â
