Hi, I’m Greg
Over the last 20 years I’ve helped thousands of clients just like you get to the root of their chronic pain, anxiety and depression and wave goodbye to chronic illness.
I’m a faculty member with The Shift Network and I’ve spoken at The Institute of Noetic Sciences, The California Institute of Integral Studies, the California Academy of Sciences and Hive Global Leaders.
I’m a contributor with Mass Appeal Magazine and have written for Elephant Journal. I was featured in Gay In America and San Francisco Bay Times and I’ve appeared in Mantra Wellness Magazine and 24Life.
I’ve presented for The Breathe Network and I’ve been interviewed by Montana Public Radio and dozens of podcasts.
As a queer, cisgender male, I am committed to restorative and transformational justice, equity, diversity and inclusion and evolving anti-racist practices.
I stand by BBIPOC, AAPI, LATINX, LGBTQIA+, refugees, immigrants and survivors of sexual assault and abuse.
From Pain To Power
For the first 20 years of my life I was in debilitating and insufferable chronic pain, anxiety and depression.
As a young child I wore corrective metal braces on my legs. I also suffered from the pain associated with scoliosis and kyphosis (severe curves in my spine) that were compounded by developmental and early childhood trauma.
I know what it feels like to be trapped in mental, emotional and physical pain. It screams at you, it beats you down, it steals your joy, it haunts your thoughts, and all you want more than anything in the world is a way out.
I felt out of control. The exhaustion, uncertainty, lack of energy and focus left me feeling helpless and hopeless which only amplified the pain.
And let me tell you, I tried everything…
My parents took me to chiropractors but my body could never hold an adjustment. Zero benefit.
I’d get tons of massage that were excruciatingly painful and only offered some symptomatic relief. Ineffective.
I tried talk therapy but eventually learned that talking about our pain activates the nervous system and makes pain more chronic. Really not helpful.
And my body didn’t respond to physical therapy or acupuncture. They offered symptomatic relief at best but never got to the root of my anxiety, depression or pain.
I remember the moment I looked in the mirror and felt like a complete failure. Like many of my clients today, I had tried everything possible and nothing worked. I was at a dead end. I thought that something must be so horribly wrong with me that no one had any answers or solutions.
I felt broken. Nothing in my life was working. And I felt ashamed and defeated.
But it sent me on a journey to find answers…
I decided that a life of anxiety, depression and pain was unacceptable and that I had to do whatever it took to heal. I traveled from coast to coast, then to India and Asia and eventually down to South America to study with the some of world’s greatest teachers and healers. See my education here.
And I came to understand what was really creating, amplifying, and maintaining my anxiety, depression and pain.
And, through a lot of trial and error, I eventually figured out a better way to get to the root of it all…
Today I can happily say I live pain free! I unraveled the severe curve in my spine and stand 3 inches taller today than I did all those years ago. Plus I no longer suffer from anxiety or depression all without medication, surgery or invasive procedures.
If you’re ready to get better schedule a call and lets discuss the healing that is possible for you too.
