Meet Kathy
Polyvagal-Informed Health Coach
As a Polyvagal Informed Health Coach, my mission is to help high functioning individuals find more joy and avoid burnout. I believe in a holistic approach to health that looks beyond merely treating symptoms. ​ When your body is under stress, it is not optimally digesting, detoxing, fighting disease, resting and more. When you stay in a stress state for too long, it is easy to feel burned out.
Polyvagal Theory emphasizes the role the autonomic nervous system plays in regulating our health and behaviour. At any point in time, a person can feel safe and social (parasympathetic), mobilized, immobilized or a blend of those states. It's much easier to make changes when you anchored in the parasympathetic state.
My approach combines training and coaching for behavioral change. This two-fold strategy ensures that you not only develop new habits but also gain the knowledge and awareness needed to sustain and deepen your journey toward optimal health.​ Embark on this transformative experience with me, where coaching and training come together to pave the way for lasting well-being.

“Kathy is an amazing coach! She is knowledgable, supportive, and observant. Her teachings on Polyvagal Theory helped to increase my awareness of my stress levels while her coaching allowed me to work through better ways to manage my stress, I now feel more in control over my emotions and worry less when stress is on the rise”
