Dr. Elena Michaels is a Doctor of Natural Health, a licensed marriage and family therapist (MFT # 33041), and a clinical hypnotherapist. Dr. Elena is a "life-long learner" who attends ongoing research and educational training in physical health, mental health, and personal development.

After a serious surgical procedure at the age of 22, Dr. Elena was told she would never have children. She embarked on her life-long path of health and wellness when her doctor informed her a year later that she needed surgery again. She chose other healing methods instead.

Learning from a Japanese herbalist and utilizing methods that seemed to come to her intuitively to create wellness on the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual levels, she was healed. One year after that she became pregnant with the first of her two wonderful sons.

Dr. Elena again faced a challenge when diagnosed with advanced stage cancer in 1997, after living a healthy lifestyle for over 25 years. She had been working with cancer patients in her practice, and after being diagnosed herself, became an active participant of her own medical team, treating herself with alternative methods.

She is now cancer free and an advocate for enhancing immunity and bringing balance, when dealing with any life-challenging or long-term chronic illness. Click here for Dr. Elena's professional affiliations.
