Heal Your Total Self: Find Balance, No Matter Where You Are in Your Journey

An integrative, whole-person approach to life coaching that helps you align your mind, body, heart, and spirit so you can achieve optimal health and live the life you desire.

When you work with an Integrative Wellness & Life Coach, your eyes will open up to multiple possibilities. It is the opportunity to discover your core issues and uncover a level of self in order to create lasting change in your life. As you begin to see the path towards your goals, healing, and wholeness, know that we will be by your side working with you to get you there.

The Solution & Modalities

The Four Modalities of Total Transformation

Dawn specializes in treating the whole person. True healing and balance happen when we address all four pillars of your well-being:

Mind: Break free from limiting beliefs and the crippling thoughts that hold you back.

Body: Restore harmony and support your physical wellness through life's transitions.

Heart: Process complex emotions, navigate relationships, and find inner peace.

Spirit: Reconnect with your purpose, passion, and the resilient force within you.

Clarity Backed by Expertise

    • Mind (Mental): Examining your belief systems, mindset, and inner narrative. We work on rewriting limiting beliefs, building mental resilience, and creating strategic clarity.

    • Body (Physical): Somatic awareness, somatic tracking, and regulation. We listen to how stress or trauma presents physically and introduce practices to help your nervous system feel safe.

    • Heart (Emotional): Navigating your emotional landscape. We practice emotional literacy, processing heavy feelings, healing relationship patterns, and cultivating deep self-compassion.

    • Spirit (Existential/Purpose): Connecting to your core values, intuition, and a sense of higher purpose. This is non-religious and focuses entirely on what gives your unique life meaning.

  • Traditional coaching often focuses strictly on goals, action steps, and the Mind. Therapy frequently focuses on diagnosing and healing past trauma. Integrative coaching sits beautifully in the middle: we acknowledge how your past impacts your Body and Heart today, while actively co-creating actionable steps to move your whole being forward.

    • Rigorous Training: I hold certifications in Integrative Life Coaching and Art Expression Coaching, ensuring my methods are grounded in proven methodologies.

    • Strict Confidentiality: Everything shared within our sessions is completely private and secure.

    • Ethical Boundaries: I know the scope of coaching. If a challenge requires clinical therapy or medical attention, I will gently and transparently refer you to the right specialist.

    • Walking the Talk: I actively practice the integration of Mind, Body, Heart, and Spirit in my own life. I lead from lived experience and ongoing supervision, not just theory.

  • Every session is dynamic. We usually start with an assessment to help me better understand you. We then discuss what is present for you, exploring the mental blocks (Mind), emotional undercurrents (Heart), and how it aligns with your deeper truth (Spirit). We close with integrated integration steps for your week ahead.

    While deep transformation takes time, most clients report shifts in their perspective and physical stress levels within the first 3 to 4 sessions. To truly rewire habits and integrate all four modalities, a baseline commitment of 3 months is highly recommended.

From Surviving a Whirlwind to Guiding Your Healing Journey

Hi, I’m Dawn. As a certified Integrative Life Transformation Coach (IWA), my approach to wellness is fueled by my own deep journey through healing, nature, and resilience.

My background roots me deeply in science and the natural world. I spent years as a conservation biologist—trapping, rescuing, and researching wildlife. I felt grounded, fulfilled, and fluid.

But then, life happened.

In 2014, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. In 2017, I faced a recurrence. I know firsthand the slow-motion panic of a chaotic medical diagnosis. I know the paralyzing fear, the situational depression, and the heavy toll it takes on a wife and a mother.

But I also know the immense courage it takes to ask for help—and the beautiful healing that waits on the other side.

For the past 8 years, I have turned my battles into a source of wisdom, comfort, and support for men and women touched by cancer and major life upheavals. I became a coach to help you find your purpose, reclaim your balance, and create the lasting change you seek.

  • “Dawn is an amazing human being.   Her life coaching and mentorship has helped me not only get through every day life feeling confident and peaceful, but also offered a guiding hand through a very difficult time in my life. She offers resources that positively influenced me and drew from her personal experiences; her insight, compassion and guidance helped me to feel at ease through a very scary and confusing process.  She projects such a comforting presence that you find opening up to her easy.  

    I would strongly recommend Dawn to anyone seeking a helping hand through life's journeys.”

  • “When I was diagnosed with breast cancer in January of 2019, I was a wreck. I was given the news by a radiologist without much of a bedside manner, and I panicked. I called my doctor, my husband, and then Dawn. Dawn is smart, does her research, and has been there. She was the person who gave me the tools to pull myself together. Dawn never sugar coated it. She knew first hand how hard the journey could be, but she shared advice and support, and by the end of the call I felt stronger and ready to face the next steps, and ready to face my children. 

    Dawn checked in with me regularly over the next year. She was there through tests, surgeries and recoveries. She gave me great advice which helped support me as I healed. Having someone in my corner who cared, and had the knowledge and experience to understand what I was experiencing physically and emotionally made me stronger at every step. 

    Thank you Dawn!”

  • “Being diagnosed with breast cancer was definitely one of the scariest moments of my life. At a time when I felt lost, frightened, angry and in search of so many questions, it was nice to have someone with whom I could share my thoughts, concerns and gain some insight as to the difficult and challenging road ahead. Dawn was there to answer my many questions and to share her real-life experiences with me and for that, I am truly grateful. After my diagnosis, I was needing sound advice and honesty. I needed to hear the good, the bad, and the ugly that lay ahead and at times I just needed to be heard. Being able to speak with Dawn felt much like having a lifesaver. I felt an instant connection as she understood exactly what I was feeling and going through. Although we had only known each other through a mutual friend, she readily agreed to speak with me and has ever since been a strong supporter of mine. To this day, we continue to stay in touch. Everyone needs someone to lean on during this difficult time in one's life. Dawn was that person for me and I am truly grateful for all of her encouragement and support. I would hope every person diagnosed with cancer has a person like Dawn to lean on.”
