Galina Barshay, AAPC

My family immigrated from the former USSR 26 years ago, and the journey to create a new life for ourselves in the United States taught me firsthand the importance of living life with clarity of purpose and awareness of both my feelings and those of the people around me. I have had two different careers, one in exercise / wellness (over 10 years as an aerobics instructor) and the other in healthcare (over 20 years of experience working in hospitals both as a practitioner and administrator) and I have long wanted to use these skills to help and support others on their journeys and see my role as a life coach as a blessing.

I specialize in relationships, women’s issues, and teens. I will help you clarify your feelings as well as improve your ability to effectively express them. Furthermore, I will assist you in developing the skills needed to replace negative thoughts with positive ones to better achieve your goals.

Please contact me for more information and schedule a first meeting! I coach in-person, over the phone, or over skype.

Chaim Meir Perl, AAPC

I founded LifEase Coaching with the goal to help adults who struggle with chronic physical pain, like back/shoulder pain and more, which have their roots in emotional suffering. Many of my clients struggle in their stressful business life, trying to juggle between their productivity and their suppressed emotions, thus resulting in chronic physical pain. Dr. J. Sarno has long identified many of these physical symptoms, as manifestations of stress and repressed emotional pain. I was trained in many modalities, like NLP, IFS (Internal Family Systems) and Coherence Therapy, that could help these clients find their way out of these situations by healing the underlying fears and emotions. I have found that these approaches gave me powerful tools to coach my clients to a happy and calm peaceful life. By reconnecting to themselves, they find themselves again living life with ease. That’s LifEase Coaching. 
Location: Monsey, NY. Im also available by phone and skype.
Fee: Initial 2 hour consultation, $300, follow up sessions, $125 an hour, or $180 for an hour and a half. I also accept credit cards.
