I received my Functional Medicine Coaching certification from the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, currently the only training program designed and delivered in collaboration with The Institute for Functional Medicine.
I have studied homeopathy, active listening techniques, diet, and alternative medicine for the last ten years. As someone who suffers from severe fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue, I understand the frustration of feeling that things are never going to get better. As wonderful as our Western healthcare system can be, (and I have been privileged to work with some truly caring doctors) I have often felt that there is a gap between the help they are able to offer me, and the point at which my condition actually improves. In other words, I find myself needing more support than my biannual doctor visits provide. Sometimes I just need someone to help me get motivated to keep following a healthy diet, or to exercise when I am exhausted or in pain.
After studying with the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, I have come to believe that Functional Medicine Health Coaches can help to bridge this gap. My goal is to bring hope, perspective, and direction to clients who feel lost or helpless in their search for health.
At Soul Odyssey Holistic Healing, the session belongs to you. Nothing you say or feel is unimportant. I believe that there is tremendous power simply in having someone hold a space for you to speak. Soul Odyssey was created with the idea of your own unique journey in mind. You are your own compass; you are your own essential guiding force. My role is to help you unlock that force and channel it towards creating positive changes in your life. I add my energy to yours, giving you the support you need to dive deep. I create a space for you to reconnect with yourself, perhaps on a more intimate level than you have ever experienced. I listen to you without judgment or agenda. When was the last time you were truly heard? When was the last time your feelings and ideas – even the ones you are ashamed of – were validated? This is the essence and the magic of coaching. This is what I do.
