About Me

My practice is primarily composed of individuals dealing with the impact and trauma of chronic disease on quality of life issues. I specialize in the psychological ramifications of Cancer, Diabetes, Heart Disease, Parkinson's Disease and other chronic or life-threatening illnesses.

The patients who touch my life daily with their struggle, their raw honesty, and sheer spirit, inspire me. It is for them that I continue the work of self transformation and consistent professional excellence. For myself as a cancer survivor, I am honored to be in such esteemed company and to offer assistance in any way I can.

My experience spans 25 years of bringing humor and wisdom to my patients. Licensed in both California and Colorado, I'm comfortable in either the clinic or private practice setting. I provide telephone consultation nationally. I work closely with Boulder Community Health and Rocky Mountain Cancer Center. I maintain a private practice in Boulder, Colorado.

As a public speaker, my lectures have been well received in a variety of settings including the Pritikin Longevity Center in Los Angeles, Colorado Cardiovascular Center, Boulder and Cal State University, Northridge.

To schedule an initial consultation or for more information on available lecture topics, call 303-449-1123 or email jbmaidofclay@gmail.com.
