Eva M Clark founded MINDbaseHealing to become a hub to provide leadership in the development and application of mind-based practices to effectively address the psychosocial factors that contribute to each individual’s chronic disease.

Personal History

Eva M Clark has been passionate about people’s perceptions and responses to life and to their ailments since she was a small child. In preschool, she was always drawn to those with physical disabilities and their crutches, wheelchairs, and braces.  Her mom kept telling her to “leave those people alone; they’ve got enough on their plate!” but she was just fascinated by their coping skills and the challenges they faced and was always asking them questions about their lives.

While growing up, Eva’s mother was a medical librarian, and her father was a recurrent patient of their local hospital (having had a major heart attack when he was 42 years old).  Thus, she was at home in hospital wards keeping Dad company and reading medical journals from her mother’s library.   After high school, she began to study bio-medical engineering but felt so dispassionate about many of her classes (electrical engineering was dreadful) that she changed careers after her first year and dove into architecture for the next 18 years. Fully realizing her creativity but not her need to serve those challenged by life. Since 2007 she has slowly returned to her passion for the human capacity to heal and adapt.

“My whole career has been focused on understanding and working with the connection between the mind and the body.”
