LAURIE FRIEDMAN is such a blessing. Her calm practical advice, coupled with her compassionate approach to healing helped me to address my migraines in a way that helped unlike any previous approach. Plus I gained more self awareness as an added bonus. Sarah W-Maryland

After years of fibromyalgia, migraines and other weird aches and pains, I had read many books, listened to podcasts and done curable. I had gotten some relief but just couldn’t get over the hump to get rid of these issues. Working with Laurie one on one over Zoom, we practiced somatic tracking and other ways to settle my nervous system so that these issues resolved AND, I now know how to care for myself when they do flare up!

For 25 years I have had persistent neck pain, originally caused by a bad shoulder and inappropriate body mechanics.     Even after the shoulder was replaced, the neck pain continued.    With patience and compassion, Laurie taught me the techniques of Pain Repocessing Therapy (PRT). PRT can be done by yourself, basically anywhere, anytime.   It has made my neck pain much more manageable, and given me a feeling of empowerment to address it. Mac T, Cabin John, Maryland

Last fall I learned about Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT).In search of a practitioner, I came across Laurie Friedman - what a wonderful discovery. Laurie is a compassionate therapist and very knowledgeable about PRT. Not only did she meet with me, but she also provided additional resources for meto dip into to support our efforts. Her gentle approach drew from me, not only my current instances of pain, but also the origin for a great deal of the pain in my lower back. During our talks she was able to identify key pieces and tools for me to use when pain begins and how to manage it. I enjoy my sessions with her and feel more empowered after each session.

I had chronic pain for over 20 years and had already read a few books about mind-body as well as completing the Curable programme, but when I came to Laurie, I was still doubtful about whether I could really heal. Hearing about her own experiences of having pain and coming out the other end showed me that there was light at the end of the tunnel and that healing really would be possible, even for me. I had felt so lonely in my pain experience, and being able to connect with someone so warm and empathetic was tremendously helpful for me. Laurie compassionately taught me to retrain my own brain using techniques like somatic tracking and it was amazing - over time I started to notice the pain changing and easing! I now no longer have chronic back and neck pain and have even been inspired to retrain in this work myself. I can't thank Laurie enough! Jayne B. Barbados

Working with Laurie has been a life-changing experience. I can confidently say she was the missing piece I needed to become 100% pain-free. When I first connected with her, I had already done much of the groundwork—I had read all the books, followed the guidance, and reached about 90% recovery on my own. But something was still missing, especially in my mindset.

Through just a few sessions, Laurie helped me rebuild the confidence I had lost. She reminded me that I was safe, healthy, and capable of healing. With her guidance, I was able to fully overcome the lingering symptoms I had been struggling with.

While I still experience occasional relapses—especially when I fall out of practice—Laurie is always there to support me. Every time I speak with her, I feel more grounded, secure, and ready to return to living my life fully.

I wholeheartedly endorse Laurie and her compassionate, effective approach. Her methods truly work, and I highly recommend her to anyone navigating the path to healing from TMS. John R. San Jose, Costa Rica
