About Peter Roth
New York Spiritual Teacher & Intuitive Healer
Thank you for looking at this page. I’m grateful for the opportunity to help so many people with my intuitive and healing skills. Please check out the testimonial page to see what some have said. It’s hard to label my work but I start off by saying I’m an intuitive healer/counselor. You can reach me for private consultations at (212)222-7748 or email me at peter@heartriver.org.
I’ve lived in New York City for the last 53 years after being raised in Westchester County, NY and schooled at Tulane, Penn State and NYU. I live and work on the Upper West Side of Manhattan with my wife Deborah who has her own practice as a Life Design Strategist and Interfaith Minister who focuses on Spirited Career/Life Coaching for Women, Relationship Support for Singles and Couples, Unique Wedding Ceremonies & Life Passage Celebrations (see spiritedliving.com). We share one of those great, old and comfortable West Side apartments.
My life has been a journey with many turns. For much of it, I didn’t notice the one constant that seemed to entwine other interests; a desire to know how to help people reduce their confusions, inadequacy and pain.
This was always a factor in my roles as a young photographer (with a studio in the photo district for 12 years), an author (of the book “Running USA”), a film producer (of the movie “On the Edge” starring Bruce Dern), a marathon founder and director (NYC Marathon) and also Chief Coach of the West Side Soccer League (with 3000 kids). I also created and ran a manufacturing company (Kidselebration, Inc.) which I sold after 12 successive profitable years.
Although quite successful in these fields, I was more drawn to help clients and associates with their lifes’ limitations than the business at hand. Finally, the healing and counseling tide was too great to continue pursuing other interests.
Historically, my path began as I was consumed, as a teenager, to understand multi-dimensionality as a result of my father’s death. Where did he go and how would I ever see him again? I feel a lot better about those mysteries now and do expect to see him again. On a more physical plane, at the beginning of the running boom in the mid-seventies, I became a founding officer and director of the New York Road Runners and the New York City Marathon (until 1999) and am now an honorary board member. I’m featured in a full length documentary about the history of running in NYC called “Run For Your Life”. A great pride in my life was to help launch the Achilles Track Club for disabled athletes which now has chapters in more than 62 countries.
Having been a life-long runner, I then began coaching and training runners. At the same time, Gary Null, the host of the Natural Living Radio Show, asked me to be a regular guest and occasional host of his show. Together, we founded the Natural Living Club and helped thousands of people pursue healthier, happier lives over the next 30 years. During this time, I studied with many teachers who revealed mastery of the many mysteries of mind, body and soul.
Among them I count, Avery Ferentz, Annemarie Colbin, Ben Benjamin, Peter Urban, Dorothy Espiau, Del Pe, Choa Kok Sui, Martin Feldman, Kalu Rimpoche, Khempo Kathar Rimpoche and Ra Uru Hu. I’ve recently had the pleasure of studying Family Constellations with Roberta Maria Atti and Total Biology with a number of teachers from this incredible French program. There is never an end to enhance our learning.
My practice covers many different aspects of people’s needs. I work intuitively to analyze the many energies that emanate, not only from bodies, but from the deeper part of the soul. This is where I find the master computer that reveals the inner patterns of imbalance one is challenged by. I also use many techniques to fine tune bodies for health and athletic performance and work with some of the top runners in the world. Most of my clients are not athletes.
My job is to help make people feel whole. This includes the dramas in one’s life (i.e. relationships, work situations, finance, health, etc.) and to see where the dysfunctional patterns began and to find the solutions to them. I love to bring people out of pain and I’m excited about the many tools I have to do it. This is why I teach. It’s great to have an arsenal and I want everyone to have one. Of course the strongest tool we have is our heart. To strengthen this strengthens all. I want my clients to have the tools to be powerful and maintain their health and happiness.
Sessions with me can focus on the many different life issues you may be concerned about. Many clients also ask me about others in their lives and I’m able to intuitively know about anyone you are interested in. This includes family and business associates. I’ve done a lot of work with executives about many aspects of their business life and often provide insight into prospective job applicants.
As a Human Design analyst, I’m available to interpret your Human Design chart. Please see the Human Design webpage about this. Also, I first started learning about the importance of our birth cards (from the 52 card deck) when, 45 years ago, my mother told me I was a 4 of Clubs. It took years to decipher that and I’ve seriously studied the cards in recent years. Fortunately, one of my Human Design students, Alexander Dunlop, became a card expert and we’ve done about a dozen radio shows about them. My work now includes helping people learn about the hand of cards they’ve been dealt at birth. I’m also a New York based Life Coach & Relationship Counselor.
I am available for counseling and healing by telephone or in person most weekdays and sometimes on weekends. You can reach me at the school by calling (212)222-7748. My rates are a sliding scale of from $150 to $300 per hour and can be prorated for time segments.
I have known Peter for nearly 15 years and I can honestly say he saved my life with his psychic gifts. What I love most about Peter is his straight forward approach that gets right to the heart of the matter during sessions. He was born with a wonderful gift to hear and channel the messages of the higher realm of spirit with integrity and compassion. He is truly a healer who is committed to empowering others and assisting anyone who crosses his path. He is a grounded teacher and family man which is the perfect blend of common sense and higher wisdom. What a treasure to have known him all these years.
Kimberly Salshutz – accupuncturist
Peter, your work with me and your numerous classes have completely transformed my life. Previously I had no idea about intuition and metaphysical ideas, and now I not only run my life from this perspective but I teach this to others as well. You are a master teacher and great friend, and I am so grateful for having the good fortune to have found you.
Steve Gottlieb – intuitive healer
From many years of working with Peter Roth, I can say he’s an excellent, highly-skilled and perceptive intuitive whose ability to penetrate into situations has been consistently accurate. Peter is a very caring and compassionate person who provides his clients with what they need and I highly recommend him.
Mark Germain – intuitive life coach
Peter Roth is an incredible healer. Over the years, he has helped me with a great many physical ailments, imbalances, personal challenges, and even nutrition. It wasn’t until a severe fall over two months ago that resulted in a diagnosis of “post concussion syndrome,” that I realized his unlimited abilities in healing both mind and body. Whether it’s calling from the ER where doctors were unable to help me to calling in times of high anxiety and pain, Peter has not disappointed in relieving my symptoms, thereby hastening my recovery without heavy pharmaceuticals. Remarkable! Amazing!
Donna Piken – retired teacher
Peter Roth is an expert at keeping the body fine tuned as well as bringing awareness to the connections our bodies have with our environment, personal relationships and mind.

I was given my first session with Peter Roth as a gift from a friend who was healed by him when she began to have physical problems. Through his intuition and with the chakra template of the Human Design System, Peter explained my strengths and weaknesses with freakish accuracy. I continue to use his talents not only for my personal use but to strengthen and clarify relationships with my family. Peter Roth is truly gifted.

Magnolia Manomayi Sarshar – entrepreneur
I love Peter Roth! I have been going to him ever since the late 1990s when I read a feature article about him in MIrabella magazine. Over the years I have sought his help with energy healing, help with clarifying relationship issues, human design work and developing my intuition skills. I have continued to consult him for many years for one reason. His insights are very helpful. And he is a kind, caring soul with many interesting thoughts to share! He is a find!
Betsy Sawyer Gaylin – real estate developer
Peter Roth has been a trusted advisor and intuitive healer of mine for the past 13 years. His ability to get to the heart of what is blocking me and holding me back is truly amazing. Energy blocks, emotional blocks or feeling disconnected are repaired immediately which have always brought back balance and feeling whole again. He has helped me greatly with suggesting supplements where antibiotics have failed or where he sees a deficiency in my system. Peter is a treasure and gem in my life because he keeps me healthy in body, mind and spirit!! Thank you Peter!!!
Audrey Gober – marketing executive
Peter Roth is a phenomenon. Over the five years that I have known Peter, I have been continually impressed and hugely benefited by his intuitive insights and guidance. His clairaudient access to information across an astonishing range of topics ranging from mental or emotional causes of disease and dysfunction, and their spiritual and physical healing; personal relationships, preferences and motivations; career paths and business insights; science and technology; history; and a plethora of other subjects, has been extremely useful, and repeatedly demonstrated to be highly accurate in instance after instance. His insights on human design have proven greatly valuable to my family and many others I have known, enabling a greater degree of understanding of ourselves and our interrelationships. His integrity, friendship and compassion have been treasured by my entire family, and a host of close friends and acquaintances that I have enthusiastically referred to him. I highly recommend Peter as a major asset to all who seek higher insight and understanding.
Marc Newkirk – scientist and innovator
Peter, we are so blessed and fortunate to know you! You provided much needed deep insights and solutions during a very complex and difficult time in our relationship, especially since we were just starting out only a few months. Your intuition and sensitivity coupled with your real world experience guided us during turbulent times and helped us to see past cultural and gender barriers. Moreover, your knowledge and application of Human Design principles not only helped us understand better who we each are, but also how to be a better version of ourselves and how to interact in this new age. You have always seen us as the people we can be. Thank you for all you have done for us!
Esther – executive and Michael – teacher
Peter is a wonderful healer, and I am always amazed by his work. I had a hard fall and injured my arm and shoulder badly. They were in pain and I only had one third the normal mobility as a result of the accident. After one appointment, the pain was gone and my mobility significantly improved. After three appointments with Peter, I gained full mobility back.
Jennifer F. – yoga instructor
Peter’s gifts go beyond his ability to feel energy and receive information. Not only has he helped thousands of people by identifying pieces of their life’s story, he has guided them using innovative and highly effective techniques to healing in their journey, He is an out of the box intuitive which allows for unlimited possibilities for understanding and transformation. The healing school he runs reflects Peter’ personality in its openness, generosity and inspiration. Not only has he helped guide individuals, but as a team player he has made profound contributions to documentary films and scientific innovations. I have the highest regard for his intuitive and healing abilities as well as his metaphysical understandings.
Lisa Denton – intuitive counselor – clairvoyant
Peter Roth is the true definition of a healer. His ability to understand and address physical, spiritual, emotional and metaphysical issues and ailments has transformed my life. Peter helps me to see myself, the world and those around me through a new lens which I didn’t have access to before. He helps me to clarify and strengthen my approach to life, people, and health and is an invaluable resource in dealing with complex injuries and illnesses for my patients.
Jonathan Pierce – Sports Therapist, Former Professional Runner
I have known Peter for 22 years, He’s been my #1 health practitioner. When something is bothering me, be it lower back pain (the emotional cause), low energy, too much calcium in the blood and of course helping me choose the right supplementation …He is my guy.,, I highly recommend him.
Nina Owens – former health store owner and manager
Peter Roth brings an endless set of practical methods to his individual and teaching work. We are amazed with the speed and accuracy to which Peter applies his tools in clearing the most difficult conditions. As continual students of his, we turn to Peter to “unlock” complex issues for our clients and ourselves. We’re grateful for the gift of the Roth Healing System.

For years, I’ve benefited from Peter Roth’s talents as a healer and a teacher. He is a great source of practical information or principles, and of teachings related to the fields of health, the prevention and relief of injuries, and the search for fitness and pain relief for both athletes and concerned ordinary people. Peter loves to teach people how to survive and athletes how to reach a state of normalcy from which they can strive to excel.

After years of searching for someone who could put all of the pieces of the human body together for me, I finally found him – Peter Roth! The many years of running 100 mile training weeks had finally taken its toll and my body was in dire need of some structural realignment. Peter’s knowledge of running biomechanics alongside his incredible healing methods has returned my body to optimum level of performance. I have recommended Peter’s work to many of my running teammates- all with great success! Peter’s work is a gift to all runners. He can help you run faster, run farther and do it all with less effort than ever before.
