Sue
Shipman (Founder / President) - a wondrous woman of amazing vision
and
clarity. After 30 years in corporate America and five years as an entrepreneur,
Sue was led to find her passion through a journey that started
with the late
night phone call that no parent wants to get in May, 2005.
Here's
her story in her own words-
"For
us as a family, May 2005 was the beginning of the worst of times and
the best of times, as they say. My then 18 year old son Sean had finally hit
bottom after a four year battle with crystal meth. He was ready - ready to
get help and he wanted to go to a detox facility. His biggest fear, at that
moment, was that I would want to meet him there and help - he was ashamed
and didn't want us to see him in his condition.

To
this day we are eternally grateful to another adult who was in his life, Dana,
whom he trusted, and who was
willing to act as liaison and support for him
in this time of difficulty.
As hard as it was for us, we agreed not to go to the detox facility and check him in, what we did do was wait by the phone for more calls from Dana. It was a long, long night for us.
That summer was a roller coaster for us. Sean had taken the first step, admitted he was an addict and was reaching out for help-every parent's prayer. Help came in the form of Brain State Conditioning (biofeedback) from Brain State Technologies. Words cannot properly express how grateful I am that since his first session in October 2005, my son continues to be drug, alcohol and smoke free. He has his life back, he is a happy, healthy 19 year old looking forward to the future and all the possibilities it holds for him."
On October 28, 2007 Sean celebrated two years of being drug, alcohol and smoke free!
All of this led Sue to become a licensee of Brain State Technologies and open her office in the Town of Gilbert, Arizona in July 2006.
