Dr. Tina Koopersmith

Dr Koopersmith grew up in New York, went to Duke University in North Carolina for both her undergraduate degree and her Medical School education. In 1989, she moved across the country to do her training at USC-LAC County Medical Center. It was at County that she did her internship and residency in OBGYN and then her fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Fertility. She studied under the esteemed physicians: Dr Dan Mishell,( expert in contraception), Dr Rogerio Lobo ( expert in menopause), Dr Mark Sauer ( pioneer in egg donation) and Dr Rick Paulson who later became the Division chief in fertility at USC.

In 1995, to ensure she was in close physical proximity to her young children (she raised 3 boys here in the Valley), she started her gyn and fertility practice in the San Fernando Valley. Always the student, Dr Koopersmith recently finished a 2 year fellowship in Integrative Medicine and is now board certified in OBGYN, REI AND Integrative Medicine. She is in the midst of finishing her credentials in functional medicine as well.

Raised by a surgeon (her dad) and a teacher (her mom), Dr. Koopersmith is following in her parents’ footsteps. She is fueled by a strong desire to help others heal, and also by a passion for teaching and explaining complicated information in a way that is both accessible and easily understandable.

Krista Rauschenberg

Breathworks Instructor

My work as a healer has emerged from hundreds of hours of certified training, spiritual initiations, direct experience, and deep personal work. I have been employed in the healing arts as a Postpartum Doula, an Certified Advanced Akashic Reader, a Certified Akashic Breathwork Practitioner and a Certified Sound Therapy Practitioner; facilitating and educating people throughout their personal, spiritual and healing journeys.

Working with individuals and couples in their Akashic Records and with Akashic Breathwork is a privilege. Through this work I have witnessed genuine transformation in people’s lives as it provides release, reform, answers, information, support and direction that they wouldn’t otherwise have access to. The scope of which extends to life and spiritual guidance for those who seek deeper awareness, gentle transformation, personal and professional growth and wisdom.

About LEAH
Nutritionist

I am a nutritionist, foodie, mom, and former corporate accountant who understands the challenges working moms face trying to juggle it all while also supporting their health and the health of their families.

I help women make the right food choices, remove confusion and establish simple habits so they can regain energy and get through hectic days without the added digestive discomfort, brain fog, mood swings and other signs of struggling hormonal and digestive health. This includes education, coaching, and accountability support equipping my clients with simple, sustainable action steps so they can make positive changes and feel their best.

Combining my passion for food, nutrition, and fitness, a personal struggle with digestive and hormonal issues as well as the skills of leadership, problem-solving, educating, and mentorship gained throughout my career in corporate accounting, I pursued an education in nutrition so I can now help those who have lost sight of their own health due to competing work/life demands and are at a loss as to where to begin.

I also offer Workplace Wellness Workshops- in person or virtual! What better way to energize, inspire and motivate your teams to make positive changes in their health. Don’t wait!
Invest in the well-being of your employees, co-workers and partners with these 30-minute workshops that could include:
