TESTIMONIALS:
“Lorelei has done the deep work during her personal healing journey and because of that, she is able to share her wisdom and insights to help others. She clearly explains the neuroscience behind why and how people go into fight, flight and freeze response, and offers helpful information and techniques that are easy to process and implement. She further explains the science behind why her suggestions work. I’m always impressed by how intuitive she is. She is able to tune into my needs and offer specific tips and strategies based on what I’ve shared. Each time I meet with Lorelei I feel seen, heard, validated and cared for. ” M. O.
“ I cannot say enough about how much Lorelei and PRT (pain reprocessing therapy) has helped me in my recovery from a chronic pain problem. I spent over a year unable to be active, and my everyday life was centered around my pain. My world was shrinking as I became more and more entrenched in the pain. Lorelei has guided me, using PRT and brain retraining, to regain control over my life and given me the toolkit to help me move forward. I encourage anyone suffering from chronic pain to try PRT/brain retraining with Lorelei. It has made such a huge difference in my life.” S.N.
