Why Satchi Chrysalis
Satchi (besides being my last name) means truth in Sanskrit. Therapy is all about discovering your truth, and then learning to live it!
A Chrysalis is a caterpillar that spins a golden-colored protective casing around it before it becomes a butterfly. Therapy helps us through these transitional spaces, so clients can become the beautiful creatures they were designed to be and take flight.
Chrysalis comes from the Greek word khrysos, which means gold. I love that the chrysalis casing is gold, as I’ve seen that there is beauty and value not only in the outcome, but in these transitional places.
Fun Fact
I was named Class Psychiatrist and Love Doctor in the 8th grade. I was born to do this!
Personal Note
I was born in NYC, and have lived in NY, LA, DC, Boston, CT, and Alicante, Spain. I love writing, dancing, the beach, and seeing people heal.
In my own life, I live the whole physical-spiritual-mind approach to wellness, which includes a daily meditation, prayer, and yoga practice.
