FROM MY Integrative health coaching CLIENTS
“Heather is truly amazing. She provides me with hope when I feel down, with direction when I feel lost, and at all times with constant, non-judgmental support. Heather is the dream coach, she is fully invested in helping me create positive change in my life. Her knowledge is endless and she always knows just the right thing to say. Through our work together I have learned so much about myself, I’m happier and healthier, and I’m becoming the person I want to be.”
“Coaching with Heather has been an exceptionally positive experience. Heather possesses notable credentials in health and wellness and a broad range of professional and life experience. I feel that this depth of knowledge adds another dimension to our health-oriented partnership.
In coaching, Heather approaches each session as a two way exchange and listens with an open and inquiring “beginner’s mind.” And she asks the same of me. This candid give-and-take leads to insights about what “being healthy” really means. Heather helps me tremendously with effective, step-by-step planning and meaningful and fun ways of keeping my plans on track.
Most importantly, Heather has that intangible gift of connecting with my center, my essence with the utmost caring and respect. Her warmth, kindness and humor create a very supportive environment to assess health concerns and move forward towards my personal picture of total well-being.
I wholeheartedly recommend Heather as a highly skilled coach who cares deeply about people. I am very fortunate that our paths crossed.”
“Working with Heather has been a great gift in my life. I chose her as my integrative health coach because she is such an example of physical health and strength. Yet, I have continued working with Heather because her insightful questions, listening presence and unconditional acceptance and support have led me to make shifts in my life that go far beyond the physical. She is also super organized and provides excellent written summaries of our sessions and my goals. Anyone who gets to partner with Heather on the coaching journey is blessed!”
from my massage clients
“Heather combines intuitiveness and skill with a tremendous knowledge base. She exhibits a desire to understand the underlying nature of an issue and addresses that issue as a problem to be solved. In addition to the actual massage therapy, she provides information on various exercises to aid in the recovery from a problem and to lessen the chance for re-occurrence. And, did I say she makes me laugh?”
“ I have gone to Heather for many years with an old calf tear injury and more recently upper back/neck pain, for which she has done wonders. Having been to many other massage therapists, I can wholeheartedly say that she is in a league of her own. Not only does her specific training give her the knowledge and skill needed, but more importantly she has a passion for helping and truly caring about each individual she meets. She is continuously on a journey to expand her knowledge and seemingly has techniques and tips for every ailment. I highly recommend her!”
“Several years ago I sought medical help to determine the cause of persistent lower back pain and received a diagnosis of degenerative disk disease in that area. A friend suggested trying massage therapy and referred me to Heather. From that first visit and the subsequent almost monthly sessions, Heather has used her techniques and knowledge (which she is always seeking to increase) to relieve my lower back pain and other symptoms that present themselves after my dog sport and other activities. “Oh what a relief it is!”
“I’m very impressed with Heather’s skill, knowledge, and her dedication to improving the health of her clients. I suffered with Achilles tendon pain for over a year, and through her treatment plan, I am now out of pain. Her dedication to her profession is remarkable. She took time to email me pertinent information, demonstrate new stretching techniques, and educate me in the treatment rationale. I am also impressed with her commitment to continuing education for herself by taking courses which add to her repertoire of treatment options for her clients. I highly recommend Heather to anyone looking for a massage therapist.”
