Yes, studies show that working with a health coach increases the success rate of meeting the health goals. Because I live with endo myself, I understand the challenges you face with the symptoms and the energy it takes to make changes in your life. I will walk hand and hand with you on your journey to reduce your symptoms and make endo your superpower!

With my background of living with endometriosis since 1995, I already have a good understanding of the importance of nutrition, stress management, and lifestyle factors in promoting overall well-being, including menstrual health. Integrating my education from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, I can offer a comprehensive approach to addressing various health issues that impact women’s lives such as endometriosis and adenomyosis.

Based on our consultation calls we will decide together whether a 30, 60, or 90 day program is best for you.

The initial consultation is meant to determine if we will be a good fit in working together to meet your goals. Just as any doctor, clinician or other practitioner, we offer services that are non-refundable, unlike products- items purchased in exchange for money.

A few things to take into consideration before purchasing:

• Desire to change lifestyle

• Willingness to invest in your health and wellness long term; coming into this with the mindset that there are no quick fixes to chronic symptoms

• Your outcomes are contingent on what you put into it

Yes, of course! As with any lifestyle changes, always consult your doctors/practitioner.

I am a trained and certified health and wellness coach. My practice and programs do not take the place of your other medically licensed doctors. I am here to help enhance and encourage what they have prescribed.

I believe this question can only be answered by you: your body, your choice. However, here are some questions to work through.

• Does the surgeon specialize in this type of surgery? How many have they done before you? Are you comfortable with these answers?

• How is the success rate measured? And is that good enough for you?

• What is your goal from the surgery? Will that be accomplished, is it even possible?

• What are the long term effects/trauma to the body from the surgery? Does that outweigh the possible success?

• What care will be necessary afterward? Follow up procedures? Lifestyle changes? Ability to enjoy physical intimacy? Ability to have children naturally? Prescriptions?

• What is the cost? How much will insurance cover? What does insurance cover post-op? What portion of this do you have to pay for?

• What is the recovery time? Who will help you during that period? Are you able to financially take that time? If not, what can you do to get there? What resources are available to you?

I take a holistic approach to coaching and in my programs. We will focus on what your motivation is, or your end-goal, as a point of reference to measure your success. Our systems are all connected and impacted by the way we think, feel and treat ourselves.

I work with women whose lives have been negatively impacted by endometriosis and adenomyosis. They have missed work, are in fear of losing their job and all of the relationships have been impacted by this disease. They are tired, yet ready and willing to do whatever it takes to get their life back!

My program is structured around specific topics or areas of emphasis. Within each area, we explore concepts that resonate and are feasible to incorporate into each woman's lifestyle. Furthermore, it's important to recognize that there's no one-size-fits-all solution. We each have unique symptoms and experiences. Over the years, I've accumulated a variety of tools that I can customize to fit your specific needs and experiences.

The sessions are driven by the client, providing them with the space to express themselves and navigate the changes they're undergoing. These coaching sessions are not akin to a classroom where I simply dispense information.

Integrative Health and Wellness Coaching with me is all about you—your whole self. We work together to look at all the areas that influence your health: physical, mental, social, spiritual, and environmental. It’s a partnership where we uncover your unique vision for your best health and take practical steps to help you make lasting changes, based on what you want.

Unlike a sports coach or instructor who tells you what to do, my approach is different. If simply following advice from a magazine or self-help book could fix everything, you’d already have the answers! Instead, we start exactly where you are, and together, we build your own personalized playbook for health and wellness.

I’m here to explore options with you, set meaningful goals, and cheer you on every step of the way as you build confidence and take charge of your health. This is your journey, but you don’t have to navigate it alone—I’ve got your back!
