About Dr. Troy Byer​

​

​“Although I am not anti-pharmaceutical, I am living proof that we don’t always have to swallow a pill to heal. There are organic remedies available, and my life’s work is to ensure you know you have other options. That’s why I created Y.O.R.T. — Your Organic Regulation Tools.”

 

Dr. Troy Byer (PsyD) is a trailblazing mental wealth innovator, award-winning writer-director, and respected emotion regulation expert who has devoted her life to transforming emotional pain into power—without a single pill.

​

Raised within the foster care system and declared a ward of the state by the age of 12, Dr. Troy experienced severe psychological abuse during her formative years. Diagnosed with an anxiety disorder in 2012, she was prescribed powerful psychiatric medication. But she never filled a single prescription.

​

Instead, Dr. Troy embarked on a personal odyssey to heal herself organically. She immersed herself in the study of trauma, neurobiology, and emotion regulation. It was through this journey that she embraced and adapted Deep Pressure Stimulation (DPS)—a therapeutic technique originally used in clinical settings—and incorporated it into her daily life using weighted blankets and her psychiatric service dog, LOVE.

​

Today, Dr. Troy is known not only as a fierce advocate for organic healing remedies but also as the founder of the Mindology Empowerment Academy—a groundbreaking curriculum that helps people navigate the seas of life using self-generated emotional recalibration techniques. Her approach is rooted in science, embodied practice, and lived experience.

​

She speaks publicly and professionally with unflinching honesty about trauma, resilience, and the systemic gaps in mental healthcare—while offering real, replicable solutions for kids, adults and seniors.
