Here we go guys! Round two with the incredible Dr Nicole LePara. I first had a chat with her back in early 2019 and WOW what a massive few years she's had! From creating a healing circle, to writing a book and moving across the country, we had heaps to catch up on and she did not disappoint! Funnily enough, we spoke a lot about pizza! (You'll have to listen to find out!). Dr. Nicole LePera was trained in clinical psychology at Cornell University and the New School for Social Research. She also studied at the Philadelphia School of Psychoanalysis. As a clinical psychologist in private practice, Dr. Nicole LePera often found herself frustrated by the limitations of traditional psychotherapy. Wanting more for her patients—and for herself—she began a journey to develop a united philosophy of mental, physical, and spiritual health that equips people with the tools necessary to heal themselves.  Nothing short of a paradigm shift, Dr. Nicole LePera’s teachings empower the individual to break free from trauma cycles and create who they want to become. Enjoy guys!  #yourholisticpsychologist #selfhealers #healyourtrauma
