What is Integrative Wellness Coaching?

“Integrative Wellness Coaching is a client-centered, relational approach to working with individuals collaboratively to address the health and wellbeing of the whole person.

It acknowledges the interdependent roles of mind, body and spirit, and the innate healing capacity within each person, with an emphasis on self-care.

An integrative wellness coach forms a partnership with individuals or groups to empower and support them in achieving their personal goals related to optimal health and wellness.”

– Andrew Weil Center For Integrative Medicine

Want to feel calm and be well?

Let’s work on it.

I founded Working On Calm to explore simple, science-based strategies for a calmer, healthier life. Originally started as a blog to document my personal journey with anxiety, it naturally expanded to include helping others.

At my breaking point, I was overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, and illness. I desperately needed realistic solutions that would work with my hectic life. Taking baby steps to rebuild my wellness, I emerged from the process a calmer, healthier, happier mom.

Now, I help others make similar changes. My clients learn to prioritize health and wellness with an emphasis on self-care that reduces stress and builds resilience. As a certified integrative wellness coach, I leverage my professional experience as a consultant, trainer, and educator with my personal experience as a recovering burned-out mom.

It is my mission to help people prioritize wellness without feeling stressed out and overwhelmed.

You can feel calm and be well. I’m happy to help.
