Leila-Scott holds a Masters degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine, a degree in Human Organizational Development with a focus on the psychology of leadership from Vanderbilt University, and certification in Trust-Based Relational Interventions (TBRI). TBRI is an attachment-based, relationship-oriented, trauma-informed approach to human growth and development, which allows Leila-Scott to meet her patient’s emotional needs as they arise during acupuncture sessions, groups, and retreats.

Leila-Scott is also trained as a gender equity & reconciliation facilitator with Gender Equity & Reconciliation International. Many years ago, her journey led her down a path toward deep understanding of masculinity and femininity - both as they pertain to the genders (socially, spiritually, sexually, in partnership dynamics, etc.) as well as how they appear irrespective of gender (aspects of masculine/feminine energies which do not discriminate based upon gender and even have no relationship whatsoever to gender). This adventure had already begun with the foundational “Yin (typically understood as feminine) & Yang (typically understood as masculine)” approach to understanding nature within the Chinese medical model as well as the Tao, but took her to texts diving into pre-antiquity historical & archaeological findings, quantum physics, mysticism & spirituality, embryology, zoology, sociology, and much more. Attempting a full understanding of these aspects has become a full-time spiritual practice for Leila-Scott, who calls herself a devoted student of Life and the nature of Nature. She is currently developing a curriculum in an attempt to share her findings and help others find understanding themselves.

Additionally, she has completed multiple long-form yoga trainings which deeply explore the anatomy of mind, body, spirit relationship and also holds an International Culinary & Hospitality diploma from Le Cordon Bleu, Paris & London. Her yoga experience allows her to invite her patients to move in a way that meets them where they are mentally and physically and her culinary degree informs her ability to demystify holistic nutrition & food prep for her patients. Leila-Scott feels strongly that medicine, movement & meals are three things that should further our wellbeing, not make us feel worse.

She leads women’s support groups and retreats, and spear-heads the food therapy & movement components of the practice ~ as well as our product development and strategic brand collaborations. Leila-Scott M. Price has been featured in PaperCity Magazine, going into depth about her services and what they have taught her in the process, and was honored to be visited a second time by PaperCity featuring a video recorded interview. She has also been featured in the Houston Chronicle to discuss auricular acupuncture and ear seeds, ShoutOut Houston for her spiritual approach to mothering and being a business owner, and The Pillars Magazine of Episcopal High School featuring the former Center for Healing Arts & Sciences.

Leila-Scott facilitates women’s gatherings and group depth work at Namma. She is currently guiding a monthly book club, inviting women on a journey through the myths and stories of Women Who Run with the Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estés.

You can also join her every other Tuesday morning at 11:00am for an Alchemical Sound Healing experience.
