" The nervous system holds the key to the body’s incredible potential to heal itself "

A Letter from Katie
I began my journey into health coaching because of personal necessity. My hair was falling out!
Diagnosed with autoimmune alopecia in 2008, I soon realized that the “system” didn’t have good answers for me. Their advice: take steroids and wear wigs. Unsatisfied, I kept looking, convinced there was more to understand about my illness.
I began researching, reading and learning. In 2011 I became a certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner. As I worked with clients to help them heal their guts, replenish their nutrients, detoxify and heal naturally, I realized how much prior stress and trauma contributed to my clients and my own chronic health issues.
Five years later, through a happenstance meeting, I discovered neurofeedback at a natural health conference I was attending. My intuition told me to pay attention to this technology and I felt compelled to jump in and start learning all I could about how to train the brain to heal itself. I soon realized how this powerful tool could accelerate healing for both myself and my clients. And it did it relatively quickly with myself and my clients feeling significant changes within weeks of training!
Even after using neurofeedback for over 9 years I still get excited when I observe the transformations and clients share their successes with me.
It’s a pleasure for me to facilitate this empowering process of self-discovery, improved self-regulation and self-healing. If you are ready to commit to yourself and your innate ability to heal, I would love to work with you.
Sincerely,
Katie Packwood

For decades I had a life in the corporate world, working for a Fortune 100 company that drilled the “work-life balance” mantra, but never allowed to be put into practice with workloads that could never be delt with in a 9-to-5 working environment. In 2014 at the age of 44, I experience a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA aka stroke) due to stress. Like most American’s I just sucked it up and continued to trudge along working 5 more years for a company that could care less if I lived or died. Finally, while staring at the ceiling of a hotel room in some town I was sent to work, in the midst of a panic attack trying to figure out if I should try to get 6 hours of sleep that night or get all of my “tasks” completed before the deadline, I decided I’d had enough and submitted my resignation. I knew my health and potentially my life were at stake.
I simplified my life, I was much happier, and my friends and family noticed the difference almost immediately, but there was something missing. I still had a hard time sleeping and waking up in the middle of the night. I still reacted or overreacted to minor situations and not know why, I’ve never been that kind of person, but there it was, and I couldn’t deny it. I equate it to years and years of fight or flight response which created a hyper vigilant reaction.
I had a friend in college back in the early 90’s that had a couple of tragic events happen to him within weeks of each other and I watched him spiral. He was diagnosed bi-polar, was prescribed a “cocktail” of medications which were constantly being modified, and it went all down hill from there. I watch his life crumble, starting with a section 8 discharge from the military, then a psychiatric ward, homelessness and eventually prison. I told myself there was no way I would allow myself to travel down the road of prescription medications. Not a single pill regardless of how innocuous it seemed.
At the suggestion of my partner, I discovered neurofeedback. What a life-changing experience it was and continues to be! Neurofeedback has been my answer along with a healthy diet and regular exercise. I sleep, I’m relaxed, I can read without my mind wandering and I have a feeling of wellness that is hard to describe.
I had been looking for a new career that gave me purpose and fulfilled the need I had to help others in an impactful way. When an opportunity to become a brain trainer
presented itself, I jumped on it! I really do believe that neurofeedback can help anyone who is willing to dedicate themselves to the process. I am super excited to share this amazing modality with everyone!
