We have a premier multidisciplinary behavioral health care group in Columbus, Ohio consisting of MD, NP, PhD, LISW, LPCC and RN clinicians - 17 in total. My specific interest in Psychiatry has been in the interface of emotional and physical symptoms. I utilized and refined the original teachings of TMS over the last 10 years into a program that I use to treat TMS patients. I heard about Dr. Sarno over 10 years ago when I had an episode of back pain. His teachings stopped my pain and literally changed my life - both personally and professionally. I have devoted the last 10 years learning more about pain, emotions and TMS. I have personally spent time with Dr. Sarno in New York learning his methods. He has been kind enough to continue an ongoing conversation with me. I am humbled and deeply honored by Dr. Sarno referring TMS patients to me who may be in the Midwest region that might find it a difficulty in making it to New York to see him for an evaluation. I have been blessed to collaborate with Dr. Howard Schubiner as well. He is a dear soul, a mentor, an esteemed colleague and an inspiration to me. I am dedicated to treating individuals with TMS. I am passionate in educating physicians, medical students, residents, therapists and patients on the fundamental principle of TMS. Feel free to ask me any questions about TMS. No question is too basic. If you are struggling with TMS, please realize this: YOU ARE SO VERY POWERFUL. You can and will get better. There are many of us out here to help you. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SAY HELLO!
