"Hi, I’m Laura. I’m a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, a lifelong learner, and someone deeply committed to helping others uncover their potential and create lives that feel authentic and connected. My journey into health and wellness coaching began when I decided to pursue a Master’s in Integrative Health Studies. It was there that I discovered the power of combining science, creativity, and human connection to foster true transformation. Over the past year, I’ve had the privilege of sharing this passion as an instructor in an integrative health coaching program and a certified personal trainer program for military veterans, stepping into the role of program lead for the past six months. What lights me up the most about coaching is watching others grow—seeing that spark when someone reconnects with their inner wisdom, takes a bold step forward, or realizes they are capable of more than they thought possible. My approach is rooted in authenticity and interconnectedness, weaving evidence-based frameworks with intuition, creativity, and humor. I specialize in guiding clients through stress, transitions, mindfulness, and self-discovery, tailoring every session to the unique qualities and goals of the person in front of me. Outside of coaching, I’m a bit of an explorer. Whether it’s diving into a new creative project, pondering life’s quirks, or soaking up the beauty of nature, I’m driven by curiosity and wonder. Humor keeps me grounded, because as I like to say—none of us are getting out of here alive, so we might as well have some fun along the way. One-on-one coaching is an opportunity to explore your truest self (that’s you) with the aid of a trail guide (that’s me). Each person’s journey is unique, and sometimes having someone who has “been there” and guided others through similar spaces makes all the difference. Together, we’ll create a map of where you want to go, work through how you’ll get there, and eventually return to the place where it all started: yourself. Only this time, you’ll arrive with a deeper understanding and love for who that is."
