Join Dr. Sonia and Aelisa Dieckmann as they discuss PANS, mold, and mycotoxins. As a mother of three (Gavin, 11, Madelyn, 10, Gabrielle, 7), Aelisa had the strength to trust her intuition and investigate why her family felt like their systems were on fire. Her story is an encouragement to those experiencing similar symptoms. You will learn how to advocate for your loved ones and navigate the modern healthcare system, which often fails to recognize and address important warning signs.

What Families Are Often Surprised to Learn

One of the biggest surprises parents share with us?

That behavior often improves when we address:

• gut health
• sleep quality
• nutrient status
• inflammation

When the body feels safer and more supported, regulation often follows. Sometimes the missing piece wasn’t discipline or therapy—it was biology.

How We Decide What to Test (and What Not To)

More testing isn’t always better.

We choose labs based on:

• your child’s symptoms
• patterns in eating, sleeping, and digestion
• medical history
• environmental exposures

Every test should answer a question—and move us closer to a solution. That’s how we avoid unnecessary testing and focus on what matters.

ASD Insight™ makes it easier to take that important first step toward informed planning and care. ASD Insight ™ is an early risk assessment test that can predict the risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Our test is designed to offer an assessment of early autism risk detection by analyzing an intrinsic biological marker for ASD. The test involves a small skin sample.

The Eat–Sleep–Poop Triangle Is Real

When one is off, the others usually are too.

A child who isn’t sleeping well often has:
• blood sugar instability
• iron issues
• inflammation
• or gut discomfort

A child who isn’t pooping regularly often has:
• irritability
• poor appetite
• disrupted sleep
• increased reactivity

A child who eats poorly often struggles with:
• energy
• mood regulation
• focus
• and sleep quality

These systems are not separate. They are constantly communicating. This is why we always ask about all three. Yes, we are being thorough—and we know biology is connected.

Lending Hope - One Family at a Time

Dr. Sonia McGowin, DC is a Chiropractor and DAN! doctor, practicing in Jefferson City, Missouri. The focus of her practice is children with disabilities ranging from learning disabilities to autism. She uses a biomedical and nutritional approach to treating their specific issues. Dr. McGowin is a graduate of Cleveland Chiropractic College in Kansas City and lives in Jefferson City with her husband, two children, and their English Bulldog, Lola. Before becoming a Chiropractor, she was the Deputy Director of Outreach Services for the Judevine Center for Autism (now called Easter Seals Midwest), working with families with autism across 92 counties of Missouri for 14 years. It was after attending a DAN! conference in 2001 when she realized that autism is medical, and decided to become a DAN! doctor. Dr. Sonia has spent her career working with children and adults with autism, but she's also a parent of a child with unique needs. As a toddler, her son displayed many troubling issues, such as a severe speech delay, self-injurious and aggressive behaviors; traditional medicine offered no hope or help for her family. After undertaking biomedical intervention, he is now highly verbal and very talented, yet still dealing with food allergies and learning disabilities. After the experience with her son, she vowed that no family should feel alone in their quest to recover their child. These experiences, along with her training as a DAN! doctor, give Dr McGowin a unique skillset to offer interventions working toward the treatment of children with disabilities on any range of the spectrum. She uses a variety of approaches including lab testing, chiropractic, supplements, food allergy and sensitivity testing, essential oils, as well as the IonCleanse by AMD. She is sought after among many groups on social media, and has worked with patients from more than half a dozen states, other countries and from all parts of her home state of Missouri. Dr. Sonia McGowin offers her professional opinion in overview format to multiple audiences. She is a contributing writer for the Missouri Autism Report magazine. She was a presenter at the AutismOne 2016 Conference sharing "Detoxifying Across Barriers: Harnessing the Power of Ions". She relishes opportunities to share her expertise in the use of nutrition, essential oils, detoxification and other remedies addressing interventions for individuals with Autism and other neurodevelopmental challenges. In May 2017, Dr. McGowin started her own practice dedicated to her dream of supporting children with disabilities and their families. Her office is located in Jefferson City, Missouri, yet she consults with patients all over the world via phone and Zoom video conference. She welcomes patients who are close enough to come and visit her in her office. In addition, she has held one day regional clinics in Denver, Colorado; Springfield, Missouri; Cape Girardeau, MIssouri; and hope to expand to some other areas in the coming year. You will not find a practitioner who is more committed, engaged and educated as Dr. Sonia McGowin. You will find her compassion is relentless in the pursuit of helping children everywhere recover from vaccine injuries. Her down to earth and practical approach to supporting kids and their families is a welcome change from the typical medical professionals we deal with each day. She is approachable and easy to talk to and unassuming in her patient manner. If you are interested in meeting with Dr. Sonia please contact her Covenant Integrative Wellness offices at the contact information listed on this page and begin the next phase of your journey started.
