Welcome to RelaxYourLife.com !

On this home page, we'll introduce our practice and highlight important areas on our site.

This site is also dedicated to providing information  to help people learn how to achieve and/or maintain good or improved health, both mental and physical,  to optimize stress levels, to relax their lives, effectively manage chronic medical conditions as a complement to  their regular care by their  physicians and other healthcare providers, and how to pay attention to the complex interactions between mind, body, and spirit that lead to good health or disease. 

Good health begins with developing an awareness of current health, and current factors affecting health, such as personal stress levels. Balance here is important. Too much stress will cause exhaustion and disorder over time, emotional and/or physical disorder, a loss of balance and harmony in the mind-body-spirit system, a loss of good health.. Too little will cause boredom and disorder caused by not enough challenge in your life. It can also lead to emotional disorder such as depression. 

But health is more than managing stress, relaxing, and avoiding disease. To be truly healthy involves much  more than taking care of oneself. Research in this area suggests that persons who exhibit the best health, the best quality of life, and the most longevity have purposeful, positive, altruistic lives. We will explore what this means. To start on this exploration, click on the Patient Resources tab on the top left of this page.

We are expressing ideas and making specific recommendations that are not often totally original,  and we will make every effort to acknowledge the source of these ideas and recommendations, or their inspiration, and to give you direction to more detail and original sources.

Everyone has a stake in creating balance in their lives in terms of stress levels. Finding a balance that works for you emotionally and physically is a challenge.

We label the challenge as learning how to relax your life, since often the hardest part of that challenge is toning down our overreaction to the world- to events, to our thoughts about those events, to our body's reaction to those evenets and the thoughts, and even to our behavioral reaction to all of these. It gets pretty complex sifting out all these elements of our reaction to our outer and inner worlds.

My clinical experience is in helping people who are dealing with, adjusting to, rehabilitating from chronic pain conditions and headaches, brain injury, stroke, neurologic disorder, orthopedic injury, and losses of various types in their lives.

That experience and what I have learned from it will be shared in these pages so that a wider audience can learn from it than I can address on a daily basis in my practice.   The information and recommendations made on this site should in no way be interpreted as a replacement for medical treatment, nor as treatment. If you have a medical condition you should seek competent medical advice and treatment, and should consult with your physician or health care provider before applying any of the techniques or suggestions recommended on this site.

 

Choosing a healthcare provider in Clinical Neuropsychology is an important decision. You want someone who is caring, knowledgeable, and accessible. Someone willing to take the time to go over the results of any evaluations performed, the implications of test results, and treatment plan options. You want someone who will treat you as a person, not just a patient.

In my practice, we pride ourselves on our patient service. We offer a knowledgeable staff, safe and proven procedures, and the latest in neuropsychological evaluation testing techniques and treatment methods.

We've created this web site for both new and current patients. It includes specific information on my practice, directions to the office,  forms you can fill out and bring with you to your evaluation and information about my background along and general wellness information.
