About Me

Hi! My name is Patti, and I'm a registered nurse with 17 years of bedside experience in Neuro/Trauma ICU, CCU, and Endoscopy. I wear many hats and keep many plates spinning and wouldn’t change it for anything.  I am a fun mom of two teenagers (yikes, that happened fast!) and wife (married to my high school sweetheart), daughter, sister, aunt, friend, and health and fitness enthusiast (I run 5ks now!). I love singing while I cook, and seem to know just about every lyric (it’s a gift I gave my daughter). I am quick-witted and am usually doing or saying something silly, I believe wholeheartedly (and see firsthand) that life is too short. I am a believer that laughter is the best medicine and I bring a lot of  “medicine” to the table.

I have always embraced who I am as a person, never let anything hold me back or get in my way, and encourage others always to be themselves (everyone else is already taken). I am a total nerd at heart, I  love numbers (especially even ones) and have a knack for finding patterns in them, I am an avid learner, not a fan of TV, and I would rather spend my time learning about topics like the vagus nerve or lymphatic drainage (my two latest health obsessions (told you I’m nerdy)).  I love listening to audiobooks/podcasts that discuss human biology, functional medicine, social contagions, psychology, politics, or any health and wellness topics, with some politics and true crime sprinkled in.

My Mission

As a Health & Wellness Nurse Coach, I am dedicated to transforming health and wellness, one person at a time. After witnessing the shortcomings of the traditional sick care system—where people aren't truly heard or taught essential practices like mindfulness, habit-building, and stress-management techniques—I knew there had to be a better way.  In a country that invests heavily in healthcare yet continues to see rising rates of illness, the traditional sick care model often falls short. Patients are frequently given limited time with their doctors, receiving brief instructions on changes they may not fully understand, leading to confusion and overwhelm. My mission is to bridge this gap by offering comprehensive education and support that empowers you to grasp and manage the situation you are facing fully.

My practice focuses on comprehensive care, guiding individuals to connect with themselves on a deeper level and empowering them to navigate life’s challenges confidently. Through thought-provoking questions, I help my clients uncover the answers that are already within them, allowing them to set and reach their personal and wellness goals. By truly listening and teaching simple yet effective techniques, I provide the tools needed to manage stress, improve health, and live more fulfilling lives. I believe that by helping one person at a time, we can create lasting change and make the world a better place, shifting from a system that treats illness to one that nurtures true wellness and growth.
