Featured Speakers:
Laya Seghi, LCSW
Combining over 40 years of experience as a clinical social worker with extensive training in Western science and Eastern healing systems, Laya’s integrative approach is heart-based, relying on intuition and the innate wisdom of each client. Her area of expertise is resolution of mental and emotional suffering from trauma, anxiety, and depression. With her mind-body-spirit focus, physical ailments often are fully resolved. Laya has found traditional therapy alone to be slower and, at times, to reinforce problems rather than help achieve desired solutions. Accordingly, she explored and became certified in multiple healing modalities, including Hypnotherapy, EMDR, BodyTalk, Psych-K, NeuroEmotional Technique, and she became a BodyIntuitive Master Practitioner in 2021.
