Among many things, Debra is a mother, a teacher, a healer and an Astrologer. Trained as a Bodytalk healer and certified in 2009 by the International Bodytalk Association, Deb began her study of the body as an undergraduate and graduate nursing student at the University of Pennsylvania and went on to teach Nursing, Growth and Development and Physical Assessment at Rush University in Chicago and Pediatric Nursing at Seton Hall University in NJ.   While at Penn, she participated in 2 sports and earned 8 Varsity letters as well as was inducted to the University of Pennsylvania Hall of Fame for Athletics in 2012 and to her high school Athletic Hall of Fame in 2025.

Debra has completed every advanced training in the Bodytalk system and a decade ago she traveled with a small group of healers and shamans high into the Andes Mountains of Peru to provide health services to the Q'ero people.  The trip was mystical and magical and all benefited from the power of Ayni, a reciprocal energy share.  Everything and everyone is connected.  When one gives, one receives. In addition to the advanced course work within the Bodytalk system, Deb is also a certified Reiki practitioner and has studied many adjacent modalities including Source Point, BioGeometry, Cranial Sacral Therapy, Chinese Wisdom Tradition and Epi-Genetics.  

Knowing that each of us is unique, taking a dive into the ancient science of Astrology, which has been around since the Babylonian age, we can learn from the snap shot of the heavens at the time of your birth, the influence of the macrocosmic energies on your being. Astrology is more popular than ever and it is one way to learn more about who you are and are meant to be. Debra has been a Certified Astrologer since 2020, manages and certifies new DSA Astrologers and is a mentor in the Debra Silverman School of Astrology since 2019.
