“I invite you to visit your Past, enjoy your Present, and Plan for the Future”


I am Dr. Rosa Lavergne (also known as Nelly), and I bring you conversations about Mental-Emotional and Lifestyle wellness from the cultural experience of individuals with roots in the African Indigenous, and Afro-Latin American Diaspora.

These conversations are coming from the perspective of an Afro-Dominican, immigrant, and experienced Holistic Mental and Emotional Wellness Clinician. As a Healing practitioner, I want to share with you my personal and professional journey of 35+ years and over thousandths of intimate conversations assisting individuals in their healing process. Yes! You heard it, thousandths!

After all these years of clinical experience, and deep conversations, the biggest lesson I have learned is that: Our Mental-Emotional Health and Relationships Are The Thread Of Life. It ties all of the parts of our being, Mind-Body-Spirit-Environment and affects who we are and…

  • how we live all the parts of our lives

  • How we experience the world around us

  • Our relationships

  • Our way of thinking

The outcomes of your active participation in these Soul Talks programs is that you will
learn practical, effective skills, strategies, and tools to use your mind, body, spirit, and
environment connection to:

  • Transform your limiting thinking and beliefs and create a life of abundance and self-worth.

  • Heal and relieve emotional pain (Stress, Anxiety, and Depression)

  • Identify and get out of all toxic-negative relationships (including family members) and develop healthy safe connections in your life.

  • Make lifestyle changes with a focus on mental-emotional, spiritual, environmental wellness.
