Alchemy by the Sea

THE SCIENCE OF CALM. THE ART OF LONGEVITY.

Hello!
I'm Dr. Di Toro

I bring over 25 years of clinical, research, and integrative experience to this work. As a clinical psychologist trained in trauma, depth psychology, and human development and behavior, a functional nutrition therapist grounded in metabolism and behavior, and a gerontologist focused on wellbeing across the lifespan, my approach meets people where they actually live in the complexity of real life.

THE HEART OF HEALING

and LifelongWellbeing

At Alchemy by the Sea, we believe that a rich, meaningful life is not measured just by years lived, but by how well and joyfully you live them. This perspective honors both scientific evidence and lived experience whether you’re navigating daily stressors, life transitions, aging with purpose, or lasting behavior change.

Here we integrate advanced clinical psychology with neurobiological, nutritional, and developmental-lifespan perspectives to support mental health and overall well-being across all stages of life.
