I treat the whole person . . . WHOLISTICALLY! I'm an internationally recognized Complementary and Alternative (CAM) practitioner who has had great success helping people FEEL GREAT with diet change and supplement suggestion. I also do state-of-the-art allergy and toxicity testing that has turned around alot of lives plagued by IBS, Fibromyalgia, migraines, mood disorders, cancer and addiction. My revolutionary body, mind and spirit approach to repairing the ravages of all types of addiction, from substance to food abuse, succeeds where therapy and 12-step work often fail!
To fit the person to the problem, I use my extensive behavior modification, guided imagery and clinical skills. I assess your clinical and psychological issues and create treatment unique to your needs and goals. You can also easily order your personalized supplement plan online at www.supplementsavvyrd.meta-ehealth.com.
I've been blessed with many awards and accolades. I've had worldwide invitations to speak about my unique approaches to cancer and addiction, been elected to several editorial panels and have clinical writing featured in several textbooks, including an entire chapter on CAM for "Nutritional Issues in Cancer Care".
