The Story: Healing on the levels of mind, body, emotions, and spirit.
Dr. Paulette Sherman is a psychologist, coach, author and breast cancer survivor. In 2012 she was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent surgery, chemotherapy and radiation for a year. She learned a lot from this experience about healing on the levels of mind, body, emotions and spirit and wanted to share this wisdom with other women going through this journey.
As a result, she wrote a 4 book series called The Cancer Path to help breast cancer survivors at different points along their path. She also does counseling, cancer coaching and tele-classes for people who want support.
Dr. Sherman is donating her cancer books to at least 25 cancer libraries and has offered a free workshop to cancer survivors based upon her upcoming workbook, ‘Create Your Own Cancer Path.’
She practices out of Manhattan but is available internationally for phone coaching, media interviews or speaking engagements about viewing illness as a spiritual path.
