Permit me to tell you about my singularly therapeutic experience, not even as a formal client of hers, but from just a few casual conversations with Dr. Palmer, founder of The Renew Center in Boca Raton, Florida.

​

First of all, I can say with absolute certainty that she was more helpful to me than a roomful of psychotherapists and a cupboard full of pills!

​

I was suffering from a constellation of problems stemming from two emotionally disturbed parents who terrorized me in childhood. Strangely, I thought there was nothing really wrong with me. After all, I had studied some psychology back in college. I fancied myself an expert!

​

Little did I know what monsters were awaiting their emergence from the abyss of my subconscious! Dr. Palmer immediately and mysteriously sensed the kind of help I needed. Something I had long suspected but had self-denied.

​

Out of our remarkable conversations, I experienced an exhilarating and intimate exchange of words, dreams, feelings, longings, ambitions, and fantasies. Days after my first conversation with her, I found that my mind experienced ongoing reorganization and revelation. At first, I thought it was as if she had somehow set a little homunculus in motion that was wandering around my psyche, tearing things down and building them back up again, or just making an adjustment here and there.

​

But in reality, it was I who was actually investigating, analyzing, experiencing, and reintegrating myself.

​

Throughout my life I had maintained a hatred of my parents that would periodically (and unexpectedly) well up out of nowhere for a minute or so, then pass.

​

But now, surprisingly, it's all gone. And it’s all because of my conversations with Dr. Palmer.
