Dr. Pamela Coburn-Litvak has published research articles on the effects of exercise and stress on the brain in the journals Neuroscience and Neurobiology of Learning and Behavior.
After receiving a Ph.D. in Neurobiology and Behavior from the State University of New York at Stony Brook, she served as both Assistant Professor of Physiology & Pharmacology and Special Assistant to the Vice President for Research Affairs at Loma Linda University in Loma Linda, California. She then joined the Biology department at Andrews University and developed courses in human physiology as well as the neurobiology of mental illness.
Eventually she left academia in order to work full-time at her own company: Rock @ Science LLC. She now writes and speaks to general audiences about stress-related illnesses and health. She has been conducting stress seminars for the general public for the last ten years. She also collaborates with other speakers and writers in the health field: she co-developed the neuroscience segments of the Stress: Beyond Coping seminar with its creator, Dr. William “Skip” MacCarty, D.Min.
In 2018, Dr. Coburn-Litvak started the website Leaving the Shadowland of Stress, Anxiety, and Depression (www.leavingtheshadowland.com/).

The careful and informative manner in which Dr. Litvak handles the topic of mental health is refreshing and very needed today. Love the way she is able to weave the science data with Biblical principles and then uses stories to tie it all together--great stuff! Cannot wait to have her come and spend more time with out church.
