Coaching Support
Our DNRS™ Coaches know what you’re experiencing – through the Dynamic Neural Retraining System™ they’ve all recovered from illnesses associated with limbic system dysfunction and have now devoted their time to helping you! While every coach has had their own personal experience of recovery, all coaches are highly trained to work with all forms of limbic system dysfunction. All coaches work with all clients regardless of geographical location.
Dynamic Neural Retraining System™ Coaching services are available to Members Only who have completed the DVD series or the DNRS “In Person” program.
You can book with the coach of your preference pending availability. To get the most from your coaching sessions, we recommend that you stay with the same coach throughout your recovery journey. Please note that if you wish to switch coaches at any time, you will need to book a 50 minute session with your new coach to allow them time to review your file.
With a DNRS™ Coach you can customize your practice to your individual needs and ensure that you are practicing in the quickest and most effective way possible. A personal coach is an excellent support system as you move through your recovery.
Please note that Coaching is not a counselling service nor a crisis intervention line. Coaching is a collaborative effort that often requires the client to take concrete action steps. During your call, your Certified DNRS Coach may offer practical suggestions based on your current situation that will assist you in moving forward.
We understand that coaching may not be suitable for everyone, therefore DNRS reserves the right to discontinue coaching or refer to other services if deemed appropriate. These services are intended for adults only.
Your initial session will include documenting your health history to date in order to identify various challenges that have contributed to limbic system impairment, along with creating a personalized strategy for moving forward. For best results, we would encourage you to book a series of regular coaching sessions to keep you on track. Please note: If you are a first-time client, you must book an initial 70 minute session (or 70 minute package) in order to qualify for follow-up 50 minute and 30 minute sessions. Due to high demand, our coaches availability can be limited. Please book your coaching sessions in advance to ensure you are getting the support you need. Also, please check our coaches on-line calendars on a regular basis, as short notice openings do open up from time to time.
We look forward to assisting you in your recovery journey as you learn how to Retrain Your Brain, Transform Your Health and Reclaim Your Life!
Please note that clients outside of North America must have a SKYPE account to conduct SKYPE AUDIO sessions with their coach, otherwise long distance charges will apply.

With a Bachelor of Science in Health Studies, and Masters Degree in Communication, Doris worked in the private and public health care system for two decades.
Over the years, Doris has continued to pursue her passion for health and healing completing a yoga instructor’s certificate, an Integrative Health Coach training program and extensive studies in positive psychology.

Kelly Showalter – Program Instructor and Certified Coach – (fluent in English and Spanish)
Before discovering DNRS, Kelly had been diagnosed with several autoimmune disorders as well as MCS, food allergies and sensitivities, and mold illness. Due to constant fatigue, she had to quit teaching high school Spanish and was mostly home bound due to smells triggering symptoms. At one point, she was only able to eat about 15 foods and weighed less than 100 pounds. She discovered DNRS in 2014 and made a full recovery by early 2015. Autoimmune markers no longer show up in her blood and she is now able to enjoy foods again. Smells no longer bother her and she is therefore, able to go anywhere she wants. She once again enjoys doing the things she loves such as traveling, hiking, exercising, cooking, and attending theater and museums. Kelly’s story of recovery can be found on her website limbicrecovery.com
Kelly has a M.A. in Spanish and is bilingual in Spanish and English. Although she no longer teaches, she works with students with disabilities as well as coaches for DNRS.

Emily Lofaro – Certified Coach
Emily Lofaro joined the DNRS team after fully recovering from food sensitivities, chemical sensitivities, and other limbic system related illnesses.

Previously able to eat only a few foods, she is overjoyed to be able to eat anything and live a healthy, normal life.
With a BFA degree in Studio Art, she pursues photography which can require her to travel by plane to photograph different subjects. She is thrilled to regain the ability to travel since recovering.
Emily is passionate about neuro-rehabilitation and the power of DNRS to rewire the brain. Through her experience of full recovery, she is honored to assist others in reclaiming their lives as a DNRS Coach and Community Forum Moderator.

Alita Hetland – Certified Coach
Alita Hetland is a successful graduate of the Dynamic Neural Retraining System and no longer suffers from a limbic system disorder – an issue that plagued her for over 20 years.
For Alita, this impairment manifested as symptoms of fatigue, nausea, shakiness, reactivity to chemicals, heightened sense of smell and lack of mental clarity associated with Multiple Chemical Sensitivities and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Alita had been to see countless of well-meaning specialists throughout the years, however they were not able to assist her in a full recovery.
Thrilled to have finally found the answer, Alita is excited to be able to assist others on their path to wellness and honored to be a DNRS Coach. She also works as a career counselor assisting clients in overcoming their barriers and developing their individual path to achieving their goals.

Tiina Mäenpää – Certified Coach (Finnish)
Tiina recovered from electrical hypersensitivity in 2012 with DNRS. It was a very profound and empowering experience. Since then, she has spread information about this remarkable and effective tool for recovery. In 2013 Tiina participated in a conference held by The American Academy of Environmental Medicine where Annie Hopper gave a talk on DNRS. Tiina has also followed in-person courses in DNRS held in Canada, England and Switzerland. She feels privileged and grateful that as a DNRS coach she can help people suffering from a limbic system impairment to find a solution in their problematic situation.
Tiina has worked as a university teacher (MA) for 30 years and a part of her job is to help students with challenges in learning. Tiina finds similarities between her learning philosophy and the principles of DNRS – everyone holds the keys for good learning and, similarly, everyone has the capability to rewire the brain and to recover by determined DNRS training!

_________
Tiina Mäenpää tervehtyi sähköherkkyydestä DNRS:n avulla vuonna 2012. Kokemus oli hyvin syvällinen ja voimaannuttava ja hän on siitä lähtien pyrkinyt levittämään tietoa tästä merkittävästä ja tehokkaasta paranemisen työkalusta.Vuonna 2013 Tiina osallistui Amerikan ympäristölääketieteen akatemian konferenssiin, jonne Annie Hopper oli kutsuttu esitelmöimään DNRS:stä. Hän on myös ollut seuraamassa DNRS-kursseja Kanadassa, Englanti, ja Sveitsissä ja kääntänyt DNRS-materiaalin suomeksi. Hän kokee olevansa etuoikeutettu ja onnekas saadessaan auttaa DNRS-ohjaajana erilaisista limbisen järjestelmän häiriön aiheuttamista oireista ja sairauksista kärsiviä löytämään ratkaisun tilanteeseensa.
Tiina on työskennellyt 30 vuotta yliopisto-opettajana (FM) ja hänen tehtäviinsä kuuluu mm. ohjata opiskelijoita, joilla on erilaisia oppimiseen liittyviä haasteita. Tiina näkee yhtäläisyyksiä oman oppimisfilosofiansa ja DNRS:n periaatteiden välillä; jokaisella on avaimet hyvään oppimiseen ja samoin valmius myös aivotoiminnan häiriöiden korjaamiseen ja toipumiseen määrätietoisen DNRS-harjoittelun avulla!

Michelle Bubnis – Certified Program Instructor and Coach
Michelle joined the DNRS team after recovering from severe electric hypersensitivity syndrome, multiple chemical sensitivities, food sensitivities and Lyme disease. After seeing countless medical specialists and trying multiple treatments without much improvement, she felt like she had no other option but to live a life of extreme avoidance and isolation. Michelle spent several years homebound, in complete avoidance of electro magnetic fields and was so disabled she was unable to take care of herself. After years of continually searching for an answer a friend told her about DNRS, and she began the program.
No longer imprisoned by her environment, Michelle is free to travel the world. She can do anything she wants at any time that she wants! Michelle is happy to resume her role as an educator, world traveller and athlete who swims, runs and works out!
Michelle has 21 years of experience as a teacher, counsellor and school administrator. With a BSc in life science and a masters degree in education with an emphasis in counselling, Michelle is happy to help others who are willing to embrace the DNRS program as their neural rehabilitation program for recovery!

Johanna Galea – Certified Coach
Before discovering DNRS, Johanna was sure she would always need to live a life of avoidance and isolation. There didn’t seem to be any cure for the conditions she had been diagnosed with: multiple chemical sensitivity, extreme food sensitivities and chronic fatigue syndrome.
At her weakest she was housebound, able to eat only 8 foods – all of which were fruits and vegetables – and barely able to function. Through DNRS she recovered fully, making it possible for her to return to work full-time, travel again, eat anything she wants, participate in running races again and most recently become a mother.
Johanna has an MSc in Exercise & Nutrition Science and has always been passionate about helping others. She is excited to return to the DNRS team after a year out in which she adopted her son Gigi from India. She knows that starting a family would definitely not have been a possibility without DNRS and feels extremely grateful to be able to live a completely normal life again and is really excited for the opportunity to coach others as they recover through DNRS.
Johanna’s full story can be found on her website “Road to Zest”
Please note: Johanna’s schedule works very well with European & Australian Clients, as she is based in Malta.

Connie Boczarski – Certified Coach
Prior to discovering DNRS, Connie suffered from chronic inflammatory response syndrome or mold illness, chronic fatigue syndrome, chemical sensitivities and food sensitivities. Due to a long list of disabling symptoms, she was unable to take care of herself, and was forced to close her business, sell her home and move in with family. Even though she was practicing extreme mold avoidance that had been recommended by doctors, she continued to spiral downward and add more conditions to her growing list of ailments.
Now fully recovered, Connie is enjoying a full life once again and doing all the things that bring meaning and joy to her life. She is thrilled to be working, volunteering, exercising and traveling with friends and family. She is passionate about helping others reclaim their lives with neuroplasticity and DNRS.
During her 15 year chiropractic career, Connie strived to educate patients and devise care plans tailored to their individual goals and needs. She is excited to bring this skill set to her role as a DNRS coach.
