Imagine just for a moment sticking your inside a lawn mower revved to a high speed. That was my life before I came to see Ron Stubbs at his office on Camano Island WA.

At the time I was extremely suicidal because of a constant hornets' nest going off in my head that there was no escape from for the previous 3 years. Combine that with about the worst case of hyperacusis you could possibly imagine. I couldn't leave my house without winter style ear muffs on.

During the initial 5 day consult appointment I experienced emotions I didn't know I had that had been locked away inside me. Ron explained that his view was that tinnitus wasn't a cause; it was a symptom of a much larger picture. It became clear that my past experiences had led me to this condition. During my appointments in which my "T" both raised and lowered I discovered how stress can effect tinnitus. Ron patiently taught me many skills that I could use at home to combat stress and help control my "sound".  I returned to the New York area to my husband and home. Ron explained that it would take some time to further quiet the sound but by following his suggestions I was able to regain some control back over life.

Because of my profession (opera singer and vocal instructor) I had been unable to work due of the hyperacusis and tinnitus combination. After three months I did a followup session with Ron. Literally within days of the followup I began to experience quiet for the first time in years...it took some time but with Ron's help I was able to listen to the world again. Enjoy the sounds around me without pain in my head. I finally tossed away my earmuffs and went to the middle of Time Square and shouted! I began singing for the first time in three long years!

I highly recommend Ron as a highly skilled therapist who understands the very nature of tinnitus and knows how to help those with the condition. He helped me regain control of my life and I know he can help you in the same way.~Ann from New York

I first learned of Ron Stubbs as a tinnitus therapist from a family member that he had helped. As my sister told me of the gentle way he worked and how successful her treatment had been, I felt I had found the person that could finally help me reduce the roaring in my ears.

After many emails and speaking with Ron on a phone call where he answered all my many questions in a professional but caring manner and alleviated my fears about hypnosis, I arranged to fly from Jerusalem, Israel to his office on Camano Island WA. I must say that this was a trip of pure faith for me. I wasn't sure if I was doing the right thing.

Ron explained his philosophy regarding tinnitus; that the roaring actually didn't come from my ears as I had been told but that it was a phantom sound created in my brain that was actually created by ME; that is wasn't my enemy, it was doing exactly what it was supposed to be doing; getting my attention. Ron told me that the sound I heard wasn't the cause of my issues, it was just a symptom of a much larger issue. I had to examine that and came to a conclusion that he was right; my life was indeed a mess. My relationship with my wife and children, my career, my parents and family, friends, virtually every part of my life was in shambles.

On my third day of working with Ron it was like one of those cartoon light bulbs went off in my head. I began to see things, issues, past and present in a whole different manner. Everything he was teaching me came together in an instance. I understood why the tinnitus was there; I also understood that if I did indeed create it, I could UN- create it just as quickly. 

In the next few days Ron helped and coached me thru the process he has developed. Every hour we worked seemed like it was full of life lessons which I readily absorbed. I learned so much about myself, my life, relationships, family and career and the best part of it all was Ron NEVER gave me advice. He said his advice sucked just like everyone else's. He allowed ME to find my way with his coaching.

When I left Camano Island after 5 days of working with Ron the roaring in my ears had subsided to a whisper. After visiting my family in the US I returned to Israel, backto my wife and children. I couldn't tell you exactly why, but things were different. Peaceful, calm, loving. That when I realized there was no noise; it was gone; I didn't need it anymore.

All I can say is Ron helped save my life and to that I say to him;

Chocolate or Vanilla~Choose....

Don't worry; he'll understand........Israel Steve ~ Jerusalem Israel
