About Me

I straddle many worlds.

I started my professional life as a writer, editor, and translator and interpreter of Mandarin and Spanish. For decades I've used my training in language and linguistics to break down organizational and personal barriers to communication and collaboration in international manufacturing, legal settings, global financial services IT, operational risk management, the non-profit sector, publishing, and other arenas.

Since 2011, I've been immersed in the study of various healing arts, which inform and enrich my consulting services and my work with individual healing clients.

I live in New York City but can meet you virtually anywhere.

My Healing Education

I began my nondual healing studies at A Society of Souls in 2011 and have since continued to deepen my understanding through advanced studies in Nondual Kabbalistic Healing® (NKH), Nondual Shamanism, the Work of Return, NKH teacher training, and as an apprentice teacher for the four-year course in NKH and Impersonal Movement®. I am an authorized teacher of Nondual Kabbalistic Healing®, Impersonal Movement®, and the Work of Return.

I’m also a Level 3 Reiki practitioner in the Usui lineage.

I work with individual clients both domestically and internationally.

TESTIMONIALS

  • Nondual Reiki

    “Shelah is an incredible healer! My experience with her has been life changing. She has an amazing ability to hear, understand, and empathize with your situation. I felt an immediate physical, emotional and mental lightening of my burdens during her healing. I started our session depressed and crying, but the session ended with laughter, lightness and joy. I felt all of that heaviness lift immediately. It was an incredible feeling and one that I have shared and encouraged all of my loved ones to pursue. I have tried traditional forms of therapy multiple times before, but now that I have experienced healing with Shelah, I’ve realized how effective and efficient overcoming trauma and stress can be through the power of healing. I am so grateful to have found such a compassionate, wise and wonderful healer.” — H.M.

    “Shelah brings a unique and tender touch to supporting her clients’ self-awareness and personal growth. As someone who has lived with anxiety for most of my life, I have struggled in the past managing my emotions and coping in times of discomfort. Working with Shelah has helped me expand my resiliency, lean into ambiguity with more curiosity, and explore parts of myself that I was neglecting. I most appreciate Shelah's presence during our sessions in which she tunes deeply into my vulnerabilities and helps me see a broader picture through our exploration of my challenges. While healing can be a difficult path to walk, Shelah makes it easier because I know I'm growing through each session.” —A.P.
