The Consilience Partnership

Unity Through Wisdom

The Consilience Partnership is dedicated to creating meaningful behavioral change. Our core group Monique Class ANPC, Susan Buell, Courteney Suiter MS, Michael Stone MD and Joseph Lamb MD) are actively engaging in the creation of programs and educational materials to promote sustainable lifestyle change programs. check out our upcoming events page to attend one of the Functional Medicine Wellness Retreats.

Too often, individuals make lifestyle changes without adequate preparation and get disappointing results. BJ Fogg, PhD at the Stanford Behavior Design Lab has demonstrated that lasting change is frequently a matter of simplifying the desired behavior. Current thinking suggests that it is difficult to motivate individuals to make change. However, our research and clinical work, incorporating components of Jim Gordon, MD’s work at the Center for Mind-Body Medicine, values the importance of exploring an individual’s meaning and purpose in life as a basis for meaningful change and community.

Our work is dedicated to the themes of growth and service. Let’s Connect.
