A most inspirational professor, Dr. Leslie Korn provides students with the rare quality of excellence we all seek out in a professor and few professors can provide the passionate and eclectic education Dr. Korn is known for. In all my years in a doctoral level program, I have rarely encountered a professor with such a broad knowledge and working understanding of nutritional therapy, trauma and psychological issues who is also able to teach her students hands-on effective healing tools. If you have a passion for healing you will leave Dr. Korn’s classes with new ideas, perspectives and practical tools to help your patients and clients.
