The LightHeart Institute is Rochester’s leading resource for executive and leadership coaching, hope, health, healing and vitality. For over 32 years, the Institute has been credited with effectively guiding client journeys toward leadership excellence, emotional health, physical vitality and spiritual growth.

Founded in 1987 by entrepreneur Lisa Hill DiFusco at the encouragement and inspiration of surgeon and best-selling author Bernie Siegel MD (retired), The Institute’s programs and services are designed to inspire and equip individuals, corporate executives, community leaders, and the greater community with the ability to lead more productive, prosperous and joy-filled lives. Through the Centers of Intentional Leadership, Holistic Psychotherapy, Functional Medicine, and Spiritual Growth, empowered clients discover their natural ability to succeed and thrive.

The LightHeart Institute is conveniently located at 21 Prince Street between East and University Avenues – in the heart of Rochester’s Neighborhood of the Arts. It is housed in a 5000 square foot meticulously restored historic mansion constructed in the early 1900s, at the same time the George Eastman Museum (home) was built. It was the first administration building for the University of Rochester.
