THE MOST VALUABLE PROFESSIONAL TRAINING IN MY CAREER

Dr. Rashiah Elam MD .

“I can honestly say, Break has been the most valuable professional training in my career as a Physician and Board Certified Addiction Specialist.

Before Break my professional frustrations had reached a pinnacle. I questioned my life’s work, and was beyond burnout yet hesitant to just walk away, having invested decades of study and practice to achieve what was a deep rooted lifelong dream and calling. I felt overwhelmed and ineffective in my efforts to help patients heal even with “evidence based best practices”, and had almost lost faith in the fields of medicine and human service.

On the other side, since integrating Break into my practice I am able to find meaning, solutions and progress in every patient encounter, and offer tangible tools to patients and clients. I am able to see with crystal clarity into complex patterns that once seemed impossible to navigate from an academic behavioral science lens and support their interruption. I am truly grateful to Bizzie and the Break Method, and in awe of all the lives this work has and will touch.”

    BREAK METHOD IS THE ANSWER WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR

    Rachel Barber, MSN, RN

    "As a formerly burnt out Family Nurse Practitioner with 15 years in the Emergency Department I have witnessed the growing mental health crisis first hand. I have also witnessed the the increasing shortage and burnout among the Mental Health Professionals within my small community.

    I believe that Break Method is the answer we’ve been waiting for to transform our mental health crisis for the better. When I completed Break Method I was encouraged by how many fellow graduates are medical and mental health providers not only benefiting from the course but also bringing it into their own practices with amazing results.

    Break Method is groundbreaking in it’s sustainable and systematic approach. The Break tools you will teach to your patients will carry them through the rest of their lives so they don’t have to stay looping through the system.”
