As a physician* (licensed in Sweden, graduate of the Karolinska
Institute of Medicine and Surgery, Stockholm) and Certified Rubenfeld
Synergist®*, I am trained in seeing the person as a whole, and
I have a deep respect for the innate resiliency and wisdom within each
individual.
While working as a physician in general practice and occupational
medicine in Sweden for 20 years, I clearly saw the influence that stress
and emotional pain has on health and disease. I developed a strong
interest in the connection between the mind and the body. The insights
into this connection changed my approach to medicine, as well as to life
itself, and I decided to learn how to consciously integrate this awareness
for healing purposes in daily life. I chose to put my career as a M.D. in
Sweden on hold to study mind-body medicine and mind-body therapy (The
Rubenfeld Synergy Method®) in the United States.
Now based in the Seattle area, I
write and lecture on preventive and natural medicine and the mind-body
connection. In my private practice as a Synergist I enjoy seeing clients
connect with their inner resources, release outgrown habitual patterns and
make concrete improvements in their daily lives and relationships.
