A Holistic Approach to healing.

I’m so grateful to have found a holistic alternative to traditional medicine.

Have you ever had something come into your life at just the right time?

My son was really struggling with his mental health during high school. He started having anxiety, depression, and panic attacks. He was combative and angry. He was also experiencing stomach aches, nausea and weight loss. He had no appetite, was barely eating and getting super skinny. Just getting through the school day was a struggle.

High school was unbearable, he wanted nothing to do with friends or family, he became very depressed.

Maybe you have a child that’s struggling and can understand how helpless that feels.

We went to doctors and therapist. We had tests run with no answers. I was being told that they couldn’t find anything physically wrong with him, his bloodwork and tests were “normal”

We were given stomach medications and offered SSRI’s but that was just addressing the symptom, not the cause.

He was insistent that many of his friends who were on SSRI’s and other medications for anxiety, depression or ADHD were miserable on them. Ultimately, he refused to take the medications.

This was the pivotal moment.

I had to turn away from what the doctors were telling me, “It was all emotional”

I had to tune out friends and family that said, “it’s bad behavior”

Surly there were elements of these things going on but it didn’t explain Why?

I made it my mission to figure out what the cause was.

I had to become the parent he needed most.

We took a deep dive into his nutrition and gut health. To his credit, he fully participated in making diet changes. He really wanted to feel better. We worked hard to clean up his diet focused on healing his gut, which was full of bad bacteria and yeast.

Slowly he began to get his appetite back, the nausea stopped and what was even more amazing was that his mental health started to improve. He started engaging in life again.

His emotional health still had to be addressed, and I began to realize that I had to make some changes as a parent as well.

Our relationship had suffered with all the ups and downs through the years of figuring this out.

I knew that there was a real possibility of not having a relationship with him at all when he became an adult and that was just not acceptable to me.

I found what worked and I got my child back.

I know I can help you too.

Working with a health and life coach can change your life.

Update - Years later, my son has moved out of the house and taken a job that includes sales. Our relationship is better than ever; he comes by often.

He has grown into a young man who is living his life and making plans for his future.
