I help accomplished professionals navigating health crises move from medical dead-ends and scattered approaches to soul-body integration and a clear next chapter.
Clear discernment • Nervous system steadiness • Soul-rooted meaning and direction
The people who find me are rarely looking for “more information.”
They have already been through many processes. They have tried the right practitioners, the right protocols, and the right disciplines. They have learned the language of symptoms and supplements, trauma and nervous systems, mindset and meaning. And they are still living inside a question that no lab and no checklist can answer.
In many cases, the worst part of a health crisis is not only physical suffering. It is what happens to your identity when you get derailed from a life built on competence, service, and high-performance.
This is where The Tikkun Path™ begins.
Tikkun means rectification or repair. In Kabbalah, it means revealing your highest purpose and fulfillment by moving through difficult challenges.
Everything has a divine source and purpose. When you face a crisis, you’re also meeting the seed of growth toward what you are becoming.
I serve my clients through Torah-based spiritual guidance and coaching that is informed by decades of training and clinical experience in integrative and functional medicine.
My approach prioritizes integration.
That means we work across the full human system, including the body, the heart, the mind, and the inner soul. Coherence in your whole being supports optimal health and alignment with your highest purpose.
Torah and Kabbalah map the unity of these dimensions with uncommon precision. You have access to an inner light which is an aspect of the Source of Life. This is not about an intellectual sense of faith or positive thinking. The sages gave us techniques that help you access a felt-sense of your inner light. And to mobilize that potency to accelerate healing of mind, heart, and body. When you meet your inner challenges with that inner illumination, you access a higher identity. You become more deeply connected to your purpose, and the energy and resources you need to fulfill your purpose.
This is not “spirituality layered on top of health-care” It is a guided process for transformation of your well-being, by accessing your highest truth and your inner healing resources.
Clients can expect:
Careful listening and high-resolution pattern recognition, integrating your symptoms, diagnoses, biology, life history, stress physiology, and the deeper body-mind-soul operating system behind them.
Next-level meditation practices that connect you to Source, so you can access a felt sense of inner light and love, and let it be a practical guide through the terrain you are travelling.
Practical nervous system tools, parts-work, and body-centered practices These are core parts of performance coaching and transformation. But we take these practices to “next-level” by bringing your soul-light into your body and emotions, and elevating them to Source. So you shift unconscious patterns in real time, not just in theory.
Torah and Kabbalah as a coherent map for meaning, identity, and direction. The ancient wisdom framework illuminates your experience so your crisis becomes clarified into purpose, and you find your clear next steps: what to stop, what to simplify, what to focus on.
Important boundary (and it matters): This work is spiritual guidance and coaching. I do not diagnose, treat, or manage medical conditions through The Tikkun Path™. My medical training informs how I listen and how I think, but you should continue working with your physician and appropriate licensed clinicians for medical care.
Some clients elect to engage in integrative medicine consultation to address and advise on the diagnostic, structural, nutritional, and metabolic aspects of their health situations. They want to combine the inner transformational work with my specialized training in rehabilitation, pain management, internal medicine, and functional medicine. If desired, we can pursue those processes in parallel to the inner work of the Tikkun Path™.
WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER
Healing Pathway Exploration: Initial consultation and intervention designed for the person who needs clear understanding about how they can heal: what is happening, what is driving it, and what a coherent path forward looks like
Tikkun Path Partnership: best for those who are committed to making substantial inside-out change. This is ongoing, structured support to build real integration and soul-level healing over time, not another short-lived burst of insight
Functional Rehab Medicine Consultation and Planning: If you want guidance about optimizing the physical, structural, medical, and lifestyle aspects of your recovery and healing.
(If you are unsure what fits, the best place to start for most people is generally the Healing Pathway Exploration.)
START HERE (THE FIRST STEP)
The best place to begin is a Healing Pathway Exploration.
During this session, you will leave with a clearer map of what is actually happening in your system, begin to work on what is keeping you stuck, and get clarity about what a grounded next step looks like.
To Book your Healing Pathway Exploration please send a message to my office
A Healing Pathway Exploration helps you get clarity and direction when your health crisis has left you feeling lost.
It includes:
A structured pre-session intake (so we do not waste time circling the obvious)
A 90-minute Zoom session
A clear recommendation on what to do next (and what not to do next)
A written summary delivered afterward
Here’s how it works:
Step 1: Submit your information
You complete the intake so I can see the shape of the situation before we meet. The session costs $497 and can be paid by credit card or Zelle.
Step 2: Meet for the Healing Pathway Exploration
We map your system and challenges, identify and name what is driving the disconnection in your healing approach, and clarify the real decision points. We may unpack one or more prominent obstacles in our discussion. My goal is to help you find your own clarity and felt sense of next steps.
Step 3: Receive your summary and next-step recommendation
You get a written synthesis so you are not left holding a “great conversation” with no structure.
If ongoing work is indicated and we both sense it is the right fit, I will explain what the Tikkun Partnership would look like. But this initial session is not a “sales call.” It is a significant deep work we will be doing together designed to deliver immediate value to you on its own
If you’re not ready to jump into the consultation, we can do a brief “right fit call” on zoom or phone at no cost. The purpose is to meet each other and see if we want to work together. You would do the intake first. You can set that up at the link.
Common Questions:
Q: Is this medical care?
A: No. The Tikkun Path™ is coaching and Torah-based spiritual guidance that can have powerful influence on your mental, emotional, and physical processes. I do not diagnose or treat medical conditions in this work. You should maintain appropriate medical care with your physician and licensed clinicians, or we can arrange for integrative medicine consultation/management in parallel to The Tikkun Path™.
Q: Do I need to be Jewish or Torah-observant?
A: No you don’t. The work is explicitly Torah-rooted, because that is the methodology. Many people are drawn to it precisely because it is a coherent, ancient wisdom tradition that integrates soul and body, and it’s not a borrowed or trend-based spiritual framework. Rooted in the tradition, we find language that works for you, to help you understand and master the challenges you face. Torah is a wisdom tradition for all the nations, and part of our mission to reveal divinity in the world. What matters most is that you have respect for Torah as wisdom and you want a path that is spiritual serious and practically grounded.
Q: What do you mean by Kabbalah?
A: I mean classical Jewish wisdom as it has been carried through the Torah tradition, Kabbalah is the inner wisdom of Torah, revealed by enlightened sages over thousands of years. It’s not not pop-spirituality and not a vague mysticism. In our work, Kabbalah provides a map of the soul-body relationship, and skills for navigating your inner world. It helps you understand identity, suffering, and repair, and provides guidance and practices that enhance soul-body coherence and and elevate your purpose and fulfillment.
Q: I’m skeptical of “coaching” and I’m also skeptical of spiritual language. Is that a problem?
A: Healthy skepticism is welcome. It is often a sign of discernment, especially if you have been disappointed by overconfident promises. For decades I’ve sat with people in the darkest places of chronic pain, illness and despair. Pure gold doesn’t fear the fire. We work with elevated principles, where the rubber meets the road. I put myself fully on your team, and bring the best of my abilities to support your actual needs. The work is structured, concrete, and meets you in the details of your own body-mind-spirit reality. This is not about slogans or shallow affirmations. We work with time-tested mechanisms of healing, customized to your experience.
Q: How do I know if the Tikkun Partnership is right for me?
A: We determine that through the Healing Pathway Exploration. Some people need a clear map and a simpler next step. Others need ongoing guidance because the pattern is entrenched and the cost of staying stuck is rising. We decide based on your actual situation, not on pressure.
Q: Where are you located, and do you work with people outside Israel?
A: I live near Jerusalem and work with clients internationally via Zoom. Logistics are straightforward. The work itself is the deeper question.
ABOUT ME
I’m Andrew David Shiller, MD, a Harvard-trained medical doctor with nearly three decades of clinical experience, and board certification in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation and Integrative and Holistic Medicine. I’ve had extensive training in natural and integrative approaches including osteopathy (structural, cranial, biodynamic), functional medicine, mindfulness, movement arts, and energy medicine. I also continue to see patients through my integrative medicine practice (separate from my coaching work). (To learn more about my medical practice, click here.)
All that training in the physical, structural and mind-body aspects is just one pillar of my formation.
The other pillar is Torah and Kabbalistic wisdom as a lived path. I live near Jerusalem, where Torah is not an “interest” but a daily discipline. Over decades, what became unmistakable to me is that many health crises cannot be resolved by a purely medical frame, even a sophisticated integrative one. Not because the body is irrelevant, but because the human being is more than a body.
The Tikkun Path™ is the framework that emerged from holding both worlds at once: clinical reality and soul reality, modern systems biology and nervous system science and ancient Torah wisdom, the precision of medicine and the meaning-making that medicine cannot provide.
On the personal side: I love hiking, swimming, and being a father. Jerusalem has a way of stripping life down to what matters, if you let it.
AN INVITATION
If you are ready to get clear about what your situation is asking of you, I would be glad to help.
Start with a Healing Pathway Exploration.
Thank you.
Andrew David Shiller, MD
