About Aimie Apigian
Dr. Aimie Apigian is a physician board-certified in Preventive Medicine and Addiction Medicine. She holds master's degrees in Biochemistry and Public Health, and has trained in Functional Medicine. She founded the Mind-Body-Biology Institute, where she trains practitioners in her Biology of Trauma approach. The approach centers on the fear, pain and overwhelm that the body can store. In The Biology of Trauma, she examines the science of the body's response to trauma, its tendency to keep hold of it, and what supports healing. Dr. Gabor Maté wrote the foreword. Her experience as a foster and adoptive mother also shaped her work.
