My Approach

my approach 

I take a Mind-Body-Spirit  approach to treating my clients.  The mind, body and spirit are inter-connected; that which affects one, always affects the others.  They are inseparable.  Thoughts affect feelings and feelings influence our thoughts… which ultimately affect our behaviors and physical health.  For this reason, I focus on helping people to identify and make changes to the thoughts, beliefs or perspectives that are causing problems.

Thoughts, Beliefs and Perspectives are the “root cause” of many physical and emotional problems, and until they are addressed, the “dis-ease” will continue.  The physical or emotional symptoms are your sub-conscious mind’s way of trying to get your attention.  It wants your attention because there’s something it wants you to change, learn, deal with, and to grow from.  If you ignore those messages, they will get stronger and more intense, and your symptoms may become “chronic.”

Some medications can reduce or mask the symptoms, but they can NOT address the root cause.  This is because the root cause is NOT a physical thing.  When you alter your thoughts, beliefs and/or perspectives (the non-physical root cause), the physical problems will go away… and stay away.

All of our life experiences and beliefs are stored as memories in the sub-conscious mind.  When something reminds us of one of our experiences or beliefs (good or bad), we get both the thoughts AND the feelings/emotions that go with it.  A strong emotion can affect the body in a positive way, or a negative way.  The ONLY way to change how we feel about something, is to alter the sub-conscious programs that go with it.  

my approach 

My approach is like updating the program in a computer.  Your brain and sub-conscious mind ARE your body’s computer.  When we update their programming, they simply work better.  The updating process is fast and painless… and often even fun!  It literally creates new neurological “circuits” in your brain that override the old, troublesome circuits.  You still remember the old ones, but they just don’t bother you (or control you) anymore!  Learn more about mind-body-spirit medicine here.

To help my clients update their sub-conscious programming, along with using NLP & Hypnosis, I teach them simple, yet highly effective techniques that they can use on their own.  This is vitally important because it gives them a measure of power and control over their problems – be they in the past or in the present.
