AS YOUR COACH....
My desire is to connect with you, and spark recognition of your power to create health with foundational lifestyle choices. I am motivated by belief in health and healing as the natural state of being. My personal wellness journey is testament to this ideal.
I will share that I have overcome significant health challenges, and seek not to promote a specific path to wellness, but to relate that I understand the journey. And to inspire that, no matter your current and desired states of wellbeing, exuberant health is within your grasp!
I do not take this for granted, and I endeavor to embody what I hope to inspire - a healthy lifestyle that brings joy, confidence and zest for life. As a mom, a nurse and a patient I recognize the commitment needed. I have gained a wealth of knowledge and practical skills on my own journey, and I have seen and experienced the benefits of investing in oneself.
Exploring the outdoors, creating in the kitchen, spending time with family, friends and community, and expanding my health knowledge, are where I thrive personally. Connecting with clients and supporting creation of health and wellbeing in their lives fuels me professionally.

coaching approach
Proven & Effective Methods
My approach to coaching is balanced and individualized. While the foundations of health are universal, you and your life circumstances are unique. Authentic Wellness exists where these realities are aligned.
Together we will bring to life your vision of wellness. With a positive, curious and creative mindset, we will explore what motivates, supports and energizes your wellbeing. With structure and accountability, we will implement new health habits of your choosing, allowing ample opportunity for experimentation, evaluation, personal insight and growth.
My education in exercise physiology and nutrition, nursing career experience in functional-integrative medicine, and coaching credentials allow me to serve as a trusted resource, meeting today's overwhelm of information and misinformation with accurate scientific interpretation. Armed with answers to your questions and strategies to meet your challenges, you will create wellbeing that optimizes your vital resources and promotes confidence in lifelong health.
Health and Wellness coaching is a growth-promoting partnership in which you, the client, take the lead. Your health and wellness are defined, motivated and created by you. I am a guide, supporter and facilitator of your journey, helping you to build meaningful, sustainable change.
I bring training and tools rooted in the sciences of Positive Psychology, Behavior Change, Coaching Psychology and others.
You bring a desire to envision and create an optimal state of health and wellness. One that brings joy and vibrancy to every aspect of your life. One in which you understand the impact of your choices. One in wch your actions bring you confidence and peace of mind, free of fears about disease and disability.
