Founder and Owner, The Curious Heart

Mary Kate Santulli

Hi! I am Mary Kate, the owner of TCH Spiritual Healing Center (Fanwood) and TCH Apothecary & Spiritual Boutique (Cranford).  For the past 12 years I have been on a spiritual journey to discovery the true meaning of why we are here.  I have learned that we are here to truly know ourselves (not who someone told us we should be) and to be of service to one another.  When we do these things, we learn to live from our heart center rather than our ego center.  It is then that we have space to be of service to our family, friends and community, helping to raise the vibration of this planet (which we can all agree, it needs to happen).

My two businesses are here to be of service to you as you journey to learn who you really are and discovery your soul's purpose. We offer a wide variety of services, experiences and tools to help you connect and go within to become the very best version of yourself. 

Please feel free to reach out me if you have questions or would like to learn more about the work we are doing here to help raise the vibration of our local community.

    Integrative Wellness Advisors

    Kate Rich

    Kate Rich, FDN-P
    Functional Health Practitioner & Board-Certified Functional Medicine Coach
    Founder, Integrative Wellness Advisors

    Kate Rich is a Functional Health Practitioner, board-certified Functional Medicine Coach, and founder of Integrative Wellness Advisors. For more than 16 years, she has helped individuals move beyond surface-level answers to better understand what may be driving their symptoms and preventing them from feeling like themselves.

    Known as Health Detective Kate, she believes symptoms aren’t random—they’re messages from the body. Her approach looks at the whole picture, including health history, symptom patterns, lifestyle, nutrition, hormones, gut health, environmental exposures, genetics, and other potential sources of physiological stress.

    Through comprehensive health assessments, functional lab testing, and personalized guidance, Kate helps her clients identify hidden stressors and healing opportunities for overcoming health challenges, rather than simply chasing individual symptoms. Her goal is to give people a clearer understanding of what their body is communicating and a practical, personalized path forward.

    Kate works with high-achieving women navigating perimenopause, menopause, digestive issues, stubborn weight changes, fatigue, brain fog, skin concerns, and other symptoms that can emerge when the body is under stress or out of balance. She also works with men, young adults, and families seeking a more proactive, individualized approach to their health.

    Her mission is simple: help people stop guessing, start investigating, and feel empowered to take an active role in their health.

    Restful Rose Acupuncture

    Rosemarie Flom-Cisneros, L.Ac

    Hi!  My name is Rosemarie and I am a Licensed Acupuncturist & Herbalist in the state of New Jersey. I have been a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine for the past 10 years, specializing in fertility & pregnancy, hormonal changes, depression & anxiety, and pain management.

    Acupuncture is actually my 2nd career. My patients are always surprised to find out that I started out my adult years as a corporate accountant! I found my way to acupuncture as a patient first.  As many do, I tried acupuncture on a whim, hoping for any relief of my chronic pain & discomfort – and when I left my first session, I felt it. Less pain, more calm, and a lifting of the fog I had been stuck in for months. With that, the love affair began!

    Over the course of several years, I experienced the many ways that Chinese acupuncture & herbs could help with almost any challenge I faced – physically, mentally & emotionally.  I became so fascinated & passionate that I finally took the leap to start a Masters program at Pacific College of Health & Science in New York City. After many years of school and passing 4 licensing examinations – and having 2 kids along the way - I was finally able to call myself an acupuncturist! I have loved working with my patients over the past 11 years, and I’m very excited to continue developing my practice here in Fanwood.  I can’t wait to share the wonders of acupuncture and Chinese medicine with you!

    Awaken The Light LLC

    Cara Pernas

    Cara has felt the call to healing - both within herself and for others - since adolescence. Six years ago, she began connecting with the energy that would become Awaken the Light, beginning with her studies in Reiki. What started as a personal healing journey soon unfolded into ancestral wisdom, embodied magick, and a deep desire to learn from mentors and explore various healing modalities. Today, she weaves all of this into her offerings of education, embodiment, Reiki, and compassionate doula care.

     

    Before stepping fully into this path, Cara spent a decade as a high school music teacher, a role that honed her ability to listen deeply, hold safe space, and guide with patience and compassion. She now is an adjunct professor of voice at Caldwell University. These skills now serve her as a Vocal Embodiment Coach, Reiki Master, Doula and Teacher, where she supports others through thresholds of transformation, healing, and remembrance.

     

    Cara is also in the process of completing her Birth and Death Doula certifications, expanding her ability to serve those at life’s sacred edges. Her work is rooted in lived practice.

     

    As Cara shares: "I go deeply inward and confront hard imprints, experiences, and wounds within myself to gain understanding and insight on how to continue to empower myself and others. I engage with the energy of Awaken the Light daily, refining the message of my work so my offerings can reflect exactly what I can offer the collective - to aid in their empowerment and their inner healer."

     

    Through Awaken the Light, Cara invites you to honor your story, reconnect with your body’s wisdom, and remember the light that has always been within you.
