About Grace

Meet Grace, a dedicated Health Coach with over a decade of healthcare experience and a passion for helping clients take ownership of their well-being. With a Master’s in Occupational Therapy and certification as a Neuro Specialist, Grace brings a clinically informed, holistic perspective to health coaching. Her background in psychology and rehabilitation has shaped her belief that movement is medicine—and that sustainable health begins by addressing the why behind symptoms, not just treating them. After witnessing the limitations of traditional healthcare, where symptoms are often dismissed and root causes overlooked, Grace transitioned to a more integrative, client-centered, and data-driven approach. She’s known for meeting clients where they are, offering objective insights, and helping them weave practical wellness strategies into their everyday lives. Grace believes that true vitality includes physical and emotional well-being, and is committed to helping clients reclaim confidence, energy, and connection in all areas of life. Though no longer practicing as an OT, Grace remains active in the spinal cord injury community and continues to be involved in community re-integration and adaptive sports—continuing her mission to make wellness accessible to all. Whether you're starting your health journey or looking to optimize your current routine, Grace empowers you with the tools, knowledge, and support to build habits that create long-term, meaningful change.
