She imagines that our life's purpose is connected to healing our young wounds and creating justice and radiance in the world.

For Leba, somatic work is both sacred and ordinary. Risky and important. Creative and wild. She isexcited to bring cultural complexity and ancestral work into her practice.

Mike Howell is a Certified Core Energetics Practitioner, working with individuals, couples, and groups. He sees clients in person in NYC as well as on zoom. Mike started his journey in the world of acting, receiving a BFA from Syracuse University Drama. Feeling deeply unfulfilled in that world, it was actually his acting coach/mentor who turned him on to Core. From there his life stated to change is drastic ways and the calling was clear. He completed his professional training at the New York Institute of Core Energetics followed by his post graduate at the Netherlands Institute of Core Energetics.

While Core is certainly the foundation of his work, he pulls from many different facets of his own life, from mindfulness, meditation, and shamanism to fitness, wellness, and, of course, acting all coming together to create his unique perspective and impactful therapeutic approach. Mike believes the body is a road map, it shows you where you’ve been and it’s the very thing that is going to take you where you want to go. Mike believes in the transformative power of this work, not only because he’s seen it in his clients, but because he’s seen it in his own life time and time again.
