Pain Management & Opiate Use Harm Reduction

My approach to non-pharmacological pain management can change your relationship to pain and pain drugs. Mindfulness training and practice has been shown to reduce pain and suffering, and improve quality of life.

I provide a customized multi-disciplinary approach to pain management.

Adults across the lifespan welcome; special interest in supporting seniors.

Human Development, Positive Psychology, Neuroscience, and Mindfulness-Based Meditation

Individualized lifestyle change plans effectively combine science and spirit; research shows that spiritual principles and practices provide greater outcomes for recovery from grief, addiction, and pain and suffering of all types.

Substance use and Pain (physical, mental/emotional, and spiritual) changes the way the brain functions, but so does meditation!

"When the roots are deep,

there is no reason to fear the wind."
