Dr. Izzo, a mental health professional, has been in practice for more than forty years. For her doctoral dissertation, she created and developed the Rapid Advance Process in 1990, originally conceived to quickly offer relief to adult survivors of childhood trauma. The process has been globally effective because it trains the client to move out of negative brain circuitry and to build new neural pathways to the higher brain. This neural shift results in a better thinking and feeling outcome, contributing to optimum health.
