Jackalyn Rainosek Evolution of a Career Helping
Others

• Jackalyn Rainosek began her career as a therapist
  working with cancer patients using the Simonton
  Method. The Simonton Method of counseling for
  cancer patients was developed in 1973 by
  oncologist Dr. Carl Simonton and his wife,
  Stephanie Matthews-Simonton. The method
  approached cancer treatment in a holistic way,
  drawing on the concept that treatment of both the
  mind and body was the best approach in improving
  both quality of life and survival rates for those
  with cancer.

• Dr. Simonton developed the counseling program
  based on the belief that mind-body health
  practices such as meditation, relaxation
  exercises, guided imagery and yoga could be used
  to help alleviate pain, anxiety and stress. The
  Simonton Method also draws on the belief that
  attitudes, lifestyle and emotions have an effect
  on physical illness. This type of alternative
  approach also promotes the idea that a change in
  one area of the body can effect positive change
  throughout the body.
• In 1978, Simonton published the book, Getting
  Well Again, which outlined his mind-body approach
  to healing for cancer patients. In 1984, the
  Simonton Cancer Counseling Center was founded in
  Pacific Palisades, CA and it still operates today
  despite Simontons death in 2009. The Simonton
  Method of counseling continues to be used
  worldwide, with thousands of counselors trained
  in the techniques.
