About Katherine Singer

Katherine Singer is an acknowledged expert in a broad range of healing arts. Her private practice, based in New York City, now focuses primarily on spiritual counseling/healing and life coaching but she also continues to practice holistic nutrition and the Alexander Technique. Because Katherine has a diverse background both professionally and in terms of life experience, she provides a well-rounded and balanced perspective when advising her clients. Katherine develops relationships with her clients based on trust and mutual respect, always honoring the uniqueness of each client’s spiritual path.

Katherine has spent most of her life learning about alternative medicine and studying a variety healing techniques. She has also studied many different traditions, philosophies and techniques that would fall under the category of spirituality, including Native American and Huna healing traditions, Rising Star Healing Work, Chakra balancing techniques, and cord cutting rituals. Although not a “psychic” in the traditional sense Katherine does at times channel certain messages for her clients. Katherine calls it practical spirituality because it is spiritual in that it accesses the unseen and practical because it works.

As a child growing up in Connecticut, Katherine was a soloist in the Weston Ballet Repertory Company. Dance and dance injuries sparked her interest in the body and her obsession with its wellbeing. At age 15, she had already started researching vitamins and their actions. Although she never danced professionally, Katherine was very active in the dance program at Barnard and performed with dance students at Juilliard.

Following college, Katherine’s career initially took a corporate direction, beginning in the marketing department at Time Life Books in London and including a stint at MTV Networks in NYC. She soon realized, however, that her interest in the mind and body could be ignored no longer, and she took a job in the Neuropsychology Department at the University of Virginia, followed by a position at The Journal of Neurosurgery.

Katherine’s interest in combining her knowledge of the mind and body with a hands-on healing technique led her to spend the three dedicated years it takes to become a certified teacher of The Alexander Technique. Also, she significantly enhanced her knowledge of nutrition by attending the Institute for Integrative Nutrition where she subsequently joined as a staff member of the school for two years while maintaining her private practice.

Katherine’s spiritual counseling/healing and life coaching practice evolved when she recognized how much healing and true life-change was needed, and indeed required, in her nutritional sessions with clients. As a result, she set about educating herself with formal training and teaching herself about healing techniques. Katherine strongly believes that obtaining peak health on all levels is not just about diet or exercise, and that people need support to make serious changes that are lasting.

Katherine has a B.A. in Anthropology from Barnard College/Columbia University. She is also a graduate of both the American Center for the Alexander Technique and the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.

Katherine lives in New York City with her husband and son.
