Michelle Morand, MA, RCC Precision Cancer Medicine Educator & Advocate |
|
| Michelle Morand, MA, RCC has a successful 35+ year career in mental health education and program development. She has been praised by leading minds such as Gabor Maté and John Gray as being a valuable thought-leader in the field of mental health.
Deeply passionate about helping others, Michelle is an international expert care partner to thousands of patients with cancer. She specializes in Cancer Advocacy and Navigation, using a high-touch approach based on whole person support, and works tirelessly with cancer patients and their loved ones to help them access more timely and beneficial treatments beyond what is offered by standard care.
She is also the co-founder and CEO of Cancer Treatment Options and Management (CTOAM) and Liquid Biopsy Labs, where she has helped hundreds of cancer patients in over 26 countries, with over 53 types of cancer at all stages, to far outlive their doctors’ predictions. Even stage 4 cancer patients have completely recovered by using CTOAM’s unique Personalized Oncogenomics Program.
Michelle is the creator and founder of Cancer: Just the Facts, a first-of-its-kind online Education and Advocacy program that teaches patients and loved ones the foundations of Precision Cancer Medicine and, specifically, how to access the very best diagnostics and treatments available through medical science today. |
|
| Leading minds like Gabor Maté have long recognized Michelle's expertise in helping others, including her influence on mental health and addictions: "In this unique and profound book on attaining a healthy relationship with food, Michelle Morand explores not what or how much we are eating, but rather why we eat as we do. Instead of the diet mentality, she teaches simple steps to self-compassion and to releasing the stress patterns imprinted in childhood. Rather than focusing on the surface symptoms of eating and body weight Morand promotes transformation at the core. Food Is Not The Problem has the potential of changing many lives.”
– Gabor Maté, M.D., physician, columnist, and author of five books including, When the Body Says No: The Cost of Hidden Stress |
