I’m a nationally board certified health and wellness coach and postpartum doula. I’m a tenacious advocate for people who are feeling exhausted or overwhelmed. I also believe, even when facing difficult circumstances, we have the ability to heal and flourish.

Whether we’re experiencing the changes that come alongside birth, menopause, loss, grief, trauma, illness, injury, and other significant life events, it’s essential that we continue to take care of ourselves well. Every day we face challenges which can lead to an increase of stress.

There are moments when it can feel like life’s pressures or new challenges are derailing us and taking a toll on our health and well-being. Yet, even when we feel depleted, we can take small steps forward by improving sleep and managing stress in a healthy way.

Some of us may tend to withdraw or feel isolated when faced with change, while others rush ahead, feeling disconnected from what truly matters. Coaching creates space to be at ease with the vulnerability of change. I’ll invite you to slow down, increase mindfulness, reconnect with your values, design actionable steps, and move ahead. The way forward is unique to each person.

In my role as your coach, whether you’re a whole health coaching client or a menopause or postpartum doula client, I’ll stand beside you as you nurture self-acceptance and navigate the transformative stages of change. I’ll be a champion for you as you rebuild from where you are now as you embrace a new normal.  If you feel moved to work together, you’ll have my unwavering support and accountability while reaching your goals and meeting your needs with self-compassion and kindness. Today is a good day to begin again. I hope to meet you soon!

Working with Cella has been so freeing. Her health coaching series is well planned and helped me to become aware of deeper negative feelings, release them, and move into a more positive outlook. Cella is so warm, accepting and supportive; I felt very comfortable working with her. It is rare to find someone who has the training, experience, and natural gifts of healing all levels of our being: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Her insights have opened doors for me, and I’m deeply grateful for her. I highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking to live a fuller, more satisfying life.

I read recently that taking time to “notice the sources of intuition that help you in your decision making” is vital for journeying through or keeping inventory of my “different selves”. Spirit, body and mind. Flourish became that for me, a source and a listening to me. It helped me notice how I hold my vision of myself. Cella was available for my heart (Bless her). I set goals and developed tools to learn to live this new way of life for me. Flourish nourished areas of my life that weren’t even on my vision list, acknowledged my “this is where I’m at!”, left me responsible for my intentions and provided me space to slow down, speed up, stand still, make mistakes and forgive myself. Highly recommended.
