Emergence Health

Emergence Health We are on a mission to provide every person with high-quality, holistic primary care and functional medicine.

Our treatments combine Eastern and Western medicine modalities to give you the very best tools and support to heal. Hi, my name is Leah Geoghegan and I am a board-certified Primary Care and Functional Medicine Nurse Practitioner with a mission to increase access to high-quality holistic health care. My practice of medicine draws on over 6 years of experience working in both acute and primary care settings throughout New York--from the NYU Langone Emergency Department to a private Manhattan Functional Medicine practice. From Emergency to Emergence Health, I have evolved my vision to start my own telehealth holistic practice. My company, Emergence Health, focuses on providing affordable holistic health care that works with the body’s innate ability to heal. The company ethos is the epicenter of my approach and includes listening to the body, celebrating every person’s individuality, collaborative patient-provider relationships rooted in trust, and engagement within a supportive community. I am looking to work with motivated individuals who are seeking a new way to receive health care that is less invasive, natural, and provides them with more control. I am also looking to collaborate with like-minded individuals working in the health and wellness space who share this vision of holistic health care for all.

Allergies in the winter?! ❄️🤧

Yes, people in the Northeast US can experience winter allergies too!

Indoor allergens like dust mites 🐜, pet dander 🐶🐱, and mold 🍄 often become more concentrated during the colder months. Some outdoor allergens also persist, with cedar 🌲 and juniper 🌳 releasing pollen, and mold thriving in damp winter conditions like melting snow.❄️💦

What if we didn't take ourselves so seriously? 🎈

Sometimes life asks us to loosen up. To laugh in the middle of something absurd. To step into a room full of giant balloons and remember that we were made for play ✨

It’s easy to get stuck in the grind: the to-do lists, the black-and-white decisions, the routines that make days blur together. But when we break out of the ordinary, even for a moment, new ideas and fresh energy start to flow 🌈

Children already know this secret. They turn the simplest moment into wonder. By watching them, we’re reminded that joy doesn’t have to be scheduled - it just needs space to bubble up 👶

And maybe that’s the real medicine: letting ourselves be free, pause all the adulting, to rediscover the joy hiding in plain sight 🥳

When we act like kids, even just for a little while, we reconnect with the sweetest, most authentic part of ourselves. Have fun everyone - you deserve it 💗

Iron deficiency is the most common nutritional deficiency worldwide 🩸👀, and it often goes unnoticed - especially in women 🙋🏻‍♀️ ⁠

Your body is constantly giving you clues 🕵️‍♀️ when your iron levels are low, but they can be subtle and easy to ignore.⁠

Extreme tiredness, poor sleep, cold hands and feet, dizziness, brittle nails, or shortness of breath can all be signs that your body needs more iron 🌿⁠

Iron is essential for carrying oxygen in your blood, keeping your energy stable, and supporting healthy hair, skin, and nails. When levels drop, every cell in your body feels it.⁠

If you notice these symptoms, don't guess - get your iron levels checked. Simple lab testing and the right nutrition plan can make a world of difference 🍎✨⁠

Feeling more like yourself might be just a few mindful changes away 💛⁠

🎯 Want to know what I talk about with EVERY single patient, no matter the age, gender, race, living location, and family status?! 👇

It turns out - it's all about the basics, baby! 🐣😜 "Functional medicine" can often feel complex… and yet there are foundational principles that will leap frog your health forward if you follow them consistently 🐸

💧 Hydration
It’s amazing how often this is missed. Aim for 8–10 glasses of clean water every day (coffee, tea, and juice don’t count!). A hydrated body is a functional, healthy body.

🏃‍♀️ Exercise
Movement is non-negotiable for longevity and day-to-day vitality. Be realistic with your fitness level, and in general aim for 3–4 workouts/active movement per week. Variety is key versus doing the same thing over and over.

😴 Quality Sleep
Seven to eight hours of deep, consistent sleep is foundational. Good sleep hygiene (dark, cool room, consistent schedule) is what allows the body to truly repair and restore.

🥦 Clean Diet
Processed foods are hard to avoid entirely, but the cleaner you eat, the cleaner you'll run. Think whole, seasonal foods grown close by. Basically: what your great-grandmother would have eaten growing up.

The fundamentals of functional medicine 🌿 are rooted in lifestyle optimization. The good news is these are ALL within reach for everyone, without needing to see a specialist provider. Once these are in place, we can fine-tune for the more specific challenges you may face.

What you think, feel, and focus on directly affects your well-being 🧠💛🌿⁠

During the holiday season, it’s easy to get caught up in comparing yourself to others 👀, feeling like you're not doing enough 💔, or carrying the weight of everyone’s expectations 🎄. These negative thoughts and stress don't just affect your mind - they impact your body too, contributing to tension, fatigue, digestive issues, and overall burnout 😵‍💫⁠

Make your mental health a priority 💕 Pause, breathe, and treat yourself with the same kindness you offer others 🙏 Shifting your mindset can help you move through the season with more ease, presence, and peace. ✨💛⁠

You may be surprised to learn that 🦠 mold exposure 🦠 is something we treat very often at Emergence Health 🏠🙏

It’s a common issue, and many patients don't even realize it’s behind symptoms like fatigue, headaches, or respiratory issues.

Using a functional medicine approach, we help support your immune system, reduce inflammation, and address the root cause so you can feel better and protect your health long-term 🌿💛

This sweet potato pie 🥧🍠🥧 is a healthy twist on the classic pumpkin pie 🎃 and brings all the comfort of the holidays! Creamy, perfectly spiced, and made with nourishing ingredients like Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and a whole wheat crust.⁠

Here’s how to make it:⁠

✅ Crust:⁠
Whisk 1 cup blended oats (oat flour) with ½ tsp sea salt. Cut in 3 tbsp chilled coconut oil until crumbly. Mix in 2 tsp almond milk, 1 tsp honey or maple syrup, ¾ tsp vanilla, and enough cold water (1–2 tbsp) to form dough. Chill 30 min. Roll out, press into 9” pie plate, line with foil and weights. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 25 min.⁠

✅ Filling:⁠
Blend 1¾ cups mashed roasted sweet potato, ¼ cup Greek or coconut yogurt, 3–4 tbsp honey or maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, allspice, and pinch salt. Add ½ cup almond milk, 2 tsp vanilla, and 3 egg whites (or 2 whole eggs). Pour into crust above. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25–30 min, cool fully, chill 8 hrs before serving.⁠

The wholesome variation on a Thanksgiving classic is bound to be a family crowd pleaser! 🍁💛🦃⁠
