Testimonials
Welcome! It is a joy to meet you!
I’m Karen
I have struggled with fear and anxiety for many years and as a result, have been paralyzed from moving forward. Taking the time to “peel back” the layers of my life and discover the root cause of my fear was key. Once I began to focus on truth and cast off the false beliefs I held for so long, it has brought Freedom to my life! To partner with others who have been “stuck” in fear, false beliefs and life-controlling issues and together explore healthy behavior change is a tremendous gift.
Partnering Steps
4 Steps to Success
Step 01:
Getting to Know You Call
There is something about hearing a voice that understands the struggles you have faced. In this time of connection we can consider what is important to you, your timeframe and how I can best support you. Our time together will clarify whether nutrition counseling, nutrition/health coaching or a hybrid of these options will help you get “unstuck” and move forward. Always a joy to partner with you!
Step 02:
Personalized Counseling or Coaching to get you “Unstuck”
Personalized sessions exploring what it looks like to be “stuck”, out of control and envision steps to help you get off the negative cycle. Taking the time to discover what has brought you to this point, “unpacking” tools for lasting behavior change and moving forward in these sessions toward the health goals important to you.
Step 03:
Ongoing Support between Sessions
Collaboration + Exploration + Education + Contemplation = Accomplishment!
Confidential sessions partnering together to unravel false belief systems, create healthy coping skills and to learn to embrace food as nourishment.
Step 04:
Future Steps toward Lasting Change
Taking time to identify false beliefs, clarifying individual behavior changes, mapping out steps toward health goals and perhaps creating custom meal plans, provide forward movement and freedom from the negative cycle. These skills are key toward lasting behavior change and freedom!
