Episode 12: Building Better Brains
This week on the podcast, I will be interviewing Lorraine Driscoll about ways to support our children's brains by addressing the brain-body connection.
Lorraine is a Registered Holistic Nutritionist and specializes in pediatric nutrition, gut-brain healing and educational therapies that help to retrain the brain.
Her unique approach is both holistic and scientific. She focuses on healing the brain-gut connection through bio-individual nutrition therapy (SCD, GAPS, Body Ecology etc.) and then utilizes internationally recognized neuroplastic learning therapies—Integrated Listening Systems, Cellfield and LS Works. These interventions stimulate the brain to re-organize and repattern so that it can function in a more interconnected and efficient way.
Previously, Lorraine Driscoll taught in the public school system for fifteen years.
After her daughter’s recovery from PANS/PANDAS, Lorraine was inspired to seek training in neuroplastic learning therapies to address many of the learning challenges that she witnessed in the education system, but was unable to implement in the day-to-day classroom environment.
