You're tired of being tired and ready for a change.

your relationship with yourself is suffering.
- Your health is not where you'd like it to be
- You can never find time for yourself
- Your energy levels are inconsistent through the day
- Your relationship with your partner is on and off
- You get snappy with the kids sometimes
- You’re afraid you might need to change careers

Sales Manager
I am a trauma informed Certified Master Life Coach and Bodyworker
and have spent the last 18 years supporting busy, professional women find deep levels of connection to their power and self worth through Body Mind Integration Coaching and Somatic practices.
I have been there and seen it all. The struggle, the frustration, the fear, the abandonment and the regret.
I have worked the frustrating, high stress job, overachieving, dealing with self doubt and no time for myself and my health. I have fallen into the people pleaser and perfectionist role, giving and giving until I find myself over worked, overtired and stressed out.
I can hold you in a safe space to feel, explore and let go of all the stories and limits that are keeping you small so that you can truly feel seen and supported in a way you never knew before.
I believe that when women are embodied, we become empowered and in turn, unshakable.
That is my wish for you.
My mission is to empower women to be less triggered, more grounded in their body and vibrant as ever in their life and career, where ALL parts of us are welcome.

Listen to what my past clients have to say about working with me...
In my coaching sessions...
my commitment is to support you in a safe, and lovingly held space to express and release your thoughts and feelings emotionally and through the body without judgment. I will shine a light on your high points and hold you in your low points and help you feel empowered with a strong sense of direction, confidence, self love and self belief.
I use a synergy of traditional Wellness Coaching, Somatics and Psychology based modalities to bring forward movement, breath, expression and deep inquiry both virtually and in person. It is a powerful combination that facilitates deep transformation.
I am called to do this work because I see and hear too many career women struggling to value themselves enough to be their own biggest advocate and make themselves a priority. Health and relationships in work and life are suffering. They are frustrated, overwhelmed, doubting themselves and looking for a change.
Katrina L.
“I came to Teresa at an extremely stressful time to help ease the anxiety and tension I've been feeling. I am so happy that she offers sessions virtually to be able to receive her healing work in my own home. I immediately felt
Teresa’s empathy and warmth as she gently guided me to calm my thoughts and release my body into relaxation. I immediately felt relief and deep gratitude for her energy and care. I cannot recommend Teresa enough.”
Marketing Operations Manager
T. Heath
“Teresa has a calm confidence that is easy to relate with.
She gently guided me to ask myself critical questions that allowed me the insight I needed to move through, or past various challenges I had been facing.
Her nonjudgmental approach, positive nature, and active listening was exactly the kind of influence I responded to.”

Frequently Asked Questions
As a Trauma-Informed Coach, I do not treat trauma – I am simply aware of all of the nuances of working with clients who have experienced trauma and able to hold space with a greater level of awareness. Coaches do not treat and do not diagnose.
My approach to trauma-Informed Coaching can help alleviate symptoms in trauma survivors by helping to create new positive experiences and along with Gestalt approaches and Somatics, my clients are able to create a connection to their emotional state and how it is experienced in the body in a safe way so that it may be processed.
I assist with emotional and conversational intelligence, giving language to feelings when possible, supporting when there is no language for these, learning to manage their window of tolerance and supporting my clients to start to create a picture of a better future that they want for themselves, building this capacity little by little over time.
Many people ask me, “What’s the difference between Coaching and Therapy?”.
Therapy helps you review the past and find out where certain behavior patterns came from then typically labels them “clinically” with a diagnosis. You may potentially be given medication if needed. Coaches do not clinically diagnose or treat at all in the same way as therapy.
Therapy is a vital piece of the self discovery and personal growth path and I highly recommend that all potential clients for coaching take some time to undergo clinical therapy first. Therapy and Coaching can also go very well together hand in hand after some initial time in exploration.
If you’ve done therapy, read the self help books, tried different workshops etc and you are STILL feeling stuck and in a cycle you are ready to stop repeating, then Coaching is your perfect next step.
Coaching helps you understand what shifts need to take place to break those patterns for the future and hold you accountable each week for the goals and results you are aiming to achieve.
You can trust that as your coach I will:
-Create and hold a safe space of non-judgement at all times
- Leave my own “agenda” aside and out of the coaching sessions
- Work with the specific outcome that you are hoping to achieve
-Meet you where you are at – in the present moment, in this day, week, month, year – remaining flexible to your present “state”
-Believe in your resourcefulness– even during the times when the you don't believe in yourself
-Support you to find and learn ways to practice tools and skill sets that will help you to continually move towards a life that you want to create for yourself
Breakthru Wellness is a company born of a beautiful hybrid of the past 18 years experience and training in deep functional anatomy, physiology, energy healing and formal wellness coaching with somatics and gestalt built in. I am deeply trained and certified in traditional Health and Wellness Coaching and have supported hundreds of people from all socio-economic backgrounds to successfully lose weight, eat intuitively, find healthy options and supplements for their needs, build resilience and decrease stressors in their lives throughout the years.
I am not formally trained as an exercise/personal trainer, nor am I a nutritionist or do I specialize in treating specific dietary issues.
I believe that wellness is an inside job and that in order for the outer determinants of success to flourish (i.e. your commitment to your life and wellness goals and finding your inner agency and self direction), the internal blocks and limiting patterns need to be revealed and safely released through the body. I believe that behavior change is something that must come from intrinsic motivation and that it is an art to bring this to light in a manner that is sustainable with longevity.
Become grounded in the face of life’s challenges without giving up everything you’ve worked so hard to achieve
