"From the very first session, I could feel how well this role fit Celia. She has a calm about her that immediately puts me at ease. The care and time she puts into preparing for and assisting me through the coaching process is evident. I have been transitioning in my nursing career as the needs of my family change, and the timing with Celia’s coaching could not have been better. Celia's thoughtful assessment of all the factors at play during this pivotal time in my life have allowed me to feel more confident and less afraid of the changes I have to make.
I feel more balanced and less frenetic. Celia always takes time at the beginning and end of the coaching session for intentional breathing and centering of the mind and body, and I have begun to implement this strategy in other areas of my life in order to find clarity and reduce stress.
I am excited for all of the people out there who will benefit from Celia’s work as a Coach. She has so much wisdom and insight to bring to her client’s lives, whether it be in regards to their work in healthcare or other aspects of their lives. Celia’s light shines brightly through this work and will illuminate all of those lucky enough to encounter her through this work.”

"Prior to beginning my sessions with Celia I was struggling to prioritize my general health amidst a family crisis, toxic work environment, and too many obligations. I sought out guidance from Celia concerning smoking cessation, weight loss / nutrition, and overall personal well-being.
Celia helped me tackle personal health issues in small, achievable steps. Although this strategy was not new to me, Celia’s very concise approach to coaching has given me new insights and perspective on strategies that have not always worked for me in the past.
Celia has reframed my personal health journey as one that is ongoing as opposed to offering a “cure.” Celia is very down to earth and laid the groundwork for trust and mutual respect. I personally have found Celia to be a very easy person to talk to. She is a generous listener, which has made me feel both seen and heard."

"I started working with Celia soon after I was diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer 6 months after I turned 40. The diagnosis was a wake up call for me about some major ways I wanted to shift my life and take better care of myself. I am so grateful that I had Celia's support, skills, and insight to help me during such a pivotal, transformational period in my life. In every session, Celia offered me the perfect combination of practical tools and emotional support that helped me make positive behavioral and attitude shifts each week. I highly recommend working with Celia if you're feeling stuck in any way and like you're wanting a kind of support that's more action oriented than therapy, that also comes from someone who is trauma informed"

“I had so much fun working with Celia, even when tackling how to overcome some challenging and long held patterns that were holding me back! Our sessions were grounding, motivating, and a welcome reprieve from the stress and overwhelm of everyday life.
I worked with Celia with the intention of rebuilding a creative practice and forming healthier daily habits that felt nourishing rather than draining. By the end of our time together I felt like I had achieved these goals and more--including starting a journey towards healing chronic pain, envisioning ways to make my career more fulfilling, and finding ways to connect to my community and strengthen my support systems.
She created a safe space around shared values and goals for our sessions, which allowed me to be vulnerable and get to the root of the issues I wanted to address whether emotional, medical, social, or creative. She is an active and compassionate listener who was able to distill our conversations into actionable steps that felt doable and sustainable.
I found her post-session followups including summaries of our discussions and resources for further exploration invaluable in my journey to making the changes I wanted to see in my life.”

“Working with Celia was just what I needed! I was at a point where I was really ready to get some momentum towards long term goals, get unstuck, and feel progress.
Celia's kind, thoughtful inquiries and insights helped me identify simple achievable tasks that could open up paths towards my goals. Having the accountability of weekly check-ins was really valuable to me. Also important was Celia's lack of judgement if I wasn't able to meet a weekly goal for some reason.
I also really appreciated that Celia made it very clear that the client is the driver, which allowed me to tell her when something wasn't going to be helpful for me. She was readily able to pivot to a different exercise that was totally accessible and deeply meaningful to me.
I can wholeheartedly recommend working with Celia to anyone looking to bring more of what they want into their life.”
