Hi, I’m Esteban!

I am a music therapist, sound meditation practitioner, and meditation teacher with a deep passion for helping people unlock their innate capacity for healing and growth. My work combines time-tested Tibetan Buddhist practices with modern therapeutic techniques, creating immersive experiences that reduce stress, build resilience, and foster a deeper appreciation for life.

I hold a Bachelor of Music in Music Therapy from Berklee College of Music, along with additional training in Neurologic Music Therapy and Applied Vibroacoustic Therapy. My professional journey has taken me from leading drumming workshops in humanitarian aid settings, guiding therapeutic singing groups in nursing homes, using sound and music to bring comfort and dignity to individuals in hospice care, to creating unique meditation events at corporations like Spotify, Meta, and NBC. 

Through these experiences, I’ve learned that contemplative and compassionate practices can help us embrace the full spectrum of life. It’s through deep listening that we learn to slow down so we can lean into the edges of our capacity and discover that it’s possible to navigate life with confidence and ease, even when it seems impossible.

I invite you to join me in exploring the power of sound, meditation and your mind. 

Based in New York City, available virtually.

“We felt immediately warmed and at ease with Esteban who was our sound healing facilitator. He was fantastic with our son and connected with all of us effortlessly. Because of his calm and accepting energy, we experienced a loving, fruitful and restful sound healing. He was playful and grounded with our son, which allowed him to feel comfortable and wanted. I highly recommend Esteban and the sound healing experience.” - Sheila P
