In a very short amount of time, this work has changed my life. I felt beyond desperate, and searching, before a friend showed me a video by Pat Jackman on You Tube, in the summer of 2016. Within a month, I had enrolled in a 5 day workshop. During my first table session, I cried so hard I thought I, quite literally, had broken something in my eyeball (hover over my photo for proof - and my very first, of many, 'ERT face' selfies). But almost immediately afterwards, I felt a levity and returning like I'd never experienced before. Within 5 days, my chronic low back pain was gone. I was hooked and I felt like a different person – the same, but better. Others noticed too – had I lost weight? Cut my hair? They couldn't place it, but they noticed it – right away. I joined Pat's school, initially not as a means to learn the work, but to continue to receive it. Over time, my needs shifted and as I was freed from my desperation. It became important to me to offer freedom to others as well. I believe that if you have the means, you have the responsibility. It is an absolute privilege to (quickly) help other people also experience the liberation that I have found through this work.    ​
