Recover
from Pain
HEALING IS POSSIBLE
Liberating people
to suffer less is my calling
For almost 30 years, I suffered from chronic pain, including leg and knee pain, severe back and neck issues, migraines, and more. For years, I often couldn’t walk for more than 10 minutes a day. I ran from doctor to doctor without answers, relief, or feeling understood. I hit rock bottom. You know what’s great about hitting rock bottom, there’s only one way left to go, and that’s up. My non-negotiable commitment to putting joy first, dance training, and modern pain science saved me. I am proof that it is possible to live a meaningful, joy-filled life despite trauma, decades of chronic pain, and profound life challenges. Today, at 57 years old, joy is still my most important medicine. My life is not perfect. However, I am very active. I laugh a lot, work a lot, curse, and exercise for 7 to 10 hours every week. I dance, bike, do fitness workouts and Pilates, meditate, practice yoga, and jump with great joy.
Whatever you have experienced, there is always hope. There is always a new open door. A chance to free yourself from feeling trapped in an invisible cage and discover incredible strength and joy on a deep nervous system level. Together, we will find your way to heal. Here’s who I support:
Compassionate Support for Chronic Pain, Young Adults, and Life Transitions

Hello, I am Jeanine,
and I’m so glad you are here.
I am a Leader in Integral Education and the Director of the Modern School of Life. As a Mental Health Practitioner, my certifications and specialties include:
Dedicated to holistic mental health and education, I'll share more about my journey and expertise below.
It hurts.
your pain is terrible.
If you’re here, you might be feeling exhausted, in pain, or stuck. You’ve likely browsed through many webpages and sought various medical or alternative treatments. Feeling confused, depressed, and frustrated by past results is understandable. Skepticism about new therapies is natural. I hear you. I see you. I believe you. And I’m here to help you step into your power to Self-heal.
You Are Not Alone – I Have Been There
Take a deep breath and exhale slowly. You’re in good hands. I truly understand how you feel right now, reading this. Alongside chronic pain & heavy migraines, I’ve experienced undermining, decades of stored childhood trauma, and the challenge of staying true to myself as a woman in patriarchal systems with constant overwork. And now I’m here, living proof that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. You too can break the cycle of physical and emotional pain.
Allow me to introduce you to a whole new way of healing and growing, starting with Mind-Body Medicine
and Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT).
Emerging neuroscience tells us that our brains actually create what we experience in our bodies.
Mind Body Medicine for the 21st Century
Many chronic conditions result from the nervous system signaling, rather than physical damage. Evidence-based treatments can finally regain your good health.
Promising News: New Scientific Advancements for Chronic Pain and Medically Unexplained Symptoms
Progress in neuroplasticity and mind-body medicine offer help in treating chronic pain and many other medically unexplained symptoms, including Long COVID, chronic fatigue, pelvic pain, migraines, anxiety, and depression. For a complete list of conditions, see the menu. If you’ve consulted multiple clinicians without finding relief, this approach might be for you. These issues are widespread; an estimated 40% of all primary care visits involve medically unexplained symptoms.
Understanding Neuroplastic Pain
Recent studies reveal that chronic back pain, neck pain, fibromyalgia, repetitive strain injury, headaches, and other forms of pain often stem from brain-body processes, not structural causes. This is known as neuroplastic pain, and the symptoms are very real. Fortunately, these psychophysiological processes can be reversed, offering new hope for sufferers. For detailed information and empirical evidence, please visit The Science section in the menu.
Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT)
A key method in Mind-Body Medicine is Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT). You can find more details on its use under METHOD 1 in the menu.

"Transformative Journey
with Jeanine's Pain Reprocessing Therapy Sessions.
Jeanine has been my light for several months now. In that time, she has led me through an extraordinary metamorphosis. With unwavering clarity, boundless wisdom, and a heart overflowing with compassion, Jeanine has masterfully navigated each session, leaving me in awe of her unparalleled expertise. Her nurturing presence creates a sanctuary where I feel deeply cherished and understood with every encounter. I wholeheartedly endorse Jeanine and am indebted to her for the profound transformation she has facilitated in my life. A glowing testament to her brilliance and the invaluable impact of her work!"
Introducing Fundamental Methods
I've had the darkest of days, feeling judged, alone and isolated. It can spiral, fast. And it can be easy to put a face on it. To seem 'fine’. To mask it.
I learned methods and approaches that help. You can find them under METHODS in the menu. They are powerful for chronic pain sufferers, young adults, and women in life transitions.
BEYOND TALK THERAPY
Modern Approaches in Therapy and Coaching
Modern therapy and coaching provide a safe environment where you can explore practical self-regulation techniques, trauma-informed somatic practices, mind-body interventions, Self-leadership skills, and genuine empowerment for transformation. Unlike traditional methods, modern approaches are holistic, integrating various modalities. Your past is not your life sentence. No matter what's happened, you can find joy and meaning now and in the future. Let's create your new pathway together.
Welcome to Your Transformational Journey
As a Mental Health Practitioner, I blend advanced therapy and coaching methods with a spiritual perspective, helping you see and navigate your life's bigger picture. By integrating somatic practices, I emphasize the body’s essential role in your overall well-being. With a calm presence and intuitive insights, I create a warm and welcoming space for exploration, healing, and personal growth. Recognizing your potential and inner strength, I offer creative and practical solutions, filled with humor and laughter. Healing doesn’t always have to be so serious.
What I bring to the Table
- 30 Years of Experience: Bringing an extensive background in the field.
- Ongoing Learning: Committed to continuous growth.
- I See You: An ability to see the client for what she is capable of living, despite her pain, stories, and beliefs.
Sometimes, the first step to healing starts with sharing your story.
Let’s connect and get your journey started!

Real people.
Real stories.
Tanja, Founder & Managing Director and Lewis Hermanns, School Student, Germany
"Working with Jeanine
has completely changed Lewis' and my life! My son suffered two terrible strokes of fate in his early years.
First, his grandfather, to whom he was very attached, passed away. Just six months later, his stepfather hanged himself in our house. At the age of 9, this was too much for him to handle. His fear of loss became so pronounced in the years that followed that he eventually could not go to school, stay home alone, or go out on his own. Falling asleep alone also became impossible for him. This was compounded by panic attacks, and after the onset of COVID-19, he could no longer attend school at all. After many therapy sessions, which had little to no effect, Jeanine and I crossed paths. There are no coincidences! It was the best thing that could have happened to us.
Lewis very quickly came to trust Jeanine and her approach. With her warm, loving, yet competent and professional manner, Jeanine creates a space where you can open up and talk about all your feelings! Her profound knowledge of depth psychology is amazing, and with her incredible intuition, she reads you like an open book - it's magical. Lewis didn't need to explain himself; with a few right questions, she knew exactly what to do. This helped Lewis gain a different perspective very quickly, and I saw incredible results almost immediately. Jeanine and Lewis stayed connected; even between appointments, Lewis never felt lost.
After just 10 hours of intensive work, Lewis was a changed person. As a mother who was completely desperate, powerless, and exhausted, it was magical to see how quickly Jeanine managed to heal Lewis from the inside out, slowly but steadily!
Jeanine's approach is holistic; she doesn't just focus on the identified problem but looks at you as a whole person with an individual story that has shaped you. This has made Lewis the person he is today. Today, after less than a year, Lewis, now 16, is a completely different person. He goes to school regularly - Jeanine has played an incredibly big part in this too - he meets up with friends, stays home alone, and no longer has any fears at all! A completely "normal" adolescent! We are currently taking a break, but we know that Jeanine is always there when we need her! We have never experienced this level of support in all these years!
We are incredibly grateful to Jeanine and can only recommend her from the bottom of our hearts ♥️.“

"Working with Jeanine
has completely transformed my life! I was stuck and unsure of how to move forward, but destiny brought us together and started this incredible journey. Her profound knowledge of deep psychology is extraordinary, and combined with her incredible intuition, it allows her to read you like an open book - it’s magical. You don’t need to explain yourself; with just a few insightful questions, she knows exactly how to help. This approach helped me see results very quickly.
Instead of telling you what to do, Jeanine gently guides you to find solutions yourself, leading to much deeper satisfaction and understanding. You heal and grow from the inside out. Jeanine and I are always connected, and even between appointments, I never felt lost. Every conversation with her makes me feel incredibly comfortable and safe.
Jeanine’s approach is holistic; she doesn’t just focus on the identified problem but sees you as a whole person with a unique story. This perspective helps you understand and grow into the person you are meant to be. I highly recommend coaching with Jeanine for any challenges life may bring. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, dear Jeanine!.“
Claudia Romero Ibarra – Talent Pool Developer – Siemens Energy
"Almost two years ago,
I found myself at a crossroads, both personally and professionally. Despite having a successful career, there was a lingering feeling of dissatisfaction and a sense that I had lost a bit of my essence.
This disconnection from my authentic self led me to seek change, luckily, I met Jeanine who impacted me with her energy, philosophy, approach and genuine passion to help women to bring the best of themselves in a very organic and kind way.
I began a transformational journey with Jeanine, who helped me to recover elements of my roots, beliefs, science-based healing practices and integrate them little by little in a conscious way into my daily life.
The process was so organic and gentle that the evolution has been truly sustainable, the level of personal awareness I reached through the program has been a game changer.
Jeanine, through her experience and knowledge, provides you with tools that you can use and transform throughout your life.
Being in her program, without a doubt, has been one of the most beautiful opportunities I have had and without a doubt one of the greatest displays of self-love I have learned to give myself.
Two years later, I can say, that I feel confident, courageous and strong in my own skin, pursuing my personal and professional goals without any fear of losing myself in the process. “
Thank You
