Welcome to Praxis Health Coaching. "Praxis" means putting theory into action. I work with women 18+ who live with any type of diabetes. As a Type 1.5 woman, I understand the complexities, joys, and determination required to live with this condition on a daily basis. In addition to health coaching, I am an advocate for the American Diabetes Association in Illinois, and host a meetup forDiabetesSisters.org- a 501(c)3 dedicated to providing virtual support to women with all types of diabetes.My coaching includes helping clients set hoilistic, realistic goals for managing their condition. These include stress management, mindful strategies, sleep, and joyful movement. As a certified CHEF Culinary coach, I can also help you explore ways to expand your healthful food choices and even learn some new cooking techniques. As a DPP-certified Lifestyle Coach, I can refer you to information from the CDC to empower you through knowledge and learning. As a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach and a Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach, I offer a range of evidence-based information to help you learn to live a balanced, joyful life while managing a condition that can sometimes be overwhelming. I invite you to contact me so we can chat about working together. I look forward to helping you craft your vision for reaching your goals.
