Don Shetterly

In 1991, Don Shetterly suffered from a mysterious condition called conversion disorder, also known as a somatoform disorder. He experienced paralysis, pseudo seizures, anxiety, depression, and suicide attempts as a result of being tortured, abused, and molested as a child.

Many of the concepts that Don uses to help others unlock their full potential are a result of overcoming the experiences he has lived through in his own life. Through his continued journey of healing, his life has continued to unfold in ways he would have never imagined many years ago.

Don graduated in 2003 from Educating Hands School Of Massage and is currently a licensed massage therapist. He trained under Dr. Paul Canali, a pioneer in trauma healing, beginning in 2004.

Don is the author of Hope and Possibility Through Trauma, published in 2010, and Overcoming A Mysterious Condition, published in 2019.

He is a prolific writer and blogger. He has also released several relaxing piano music CD’s since 2002.

In 2010, Don was part of the 200 Male Survivors episode on Oprah and in 2012, he was a guest on the Dr. Drew Show.

Don enjoys conducting workshops on the topics of relaxation and the mind body connection.

Residing in Central Florida, Don enjoys being outside in nature, especially the ocean, and taking photographs. He is extremely creative and loves to travel in his spare time.
