Meet Nicole

Nicole knows that true wellness is not all green juices and yoga. In her teens, her own wellness journey began in an unconventional way– a cancer diagnosis. At the age of fourteen, she was sitting in a hospital bed for the very first time, hooked up to IVs of blood and platelets, and hearing the words "you have leukemia".

​

At the time, she simply wanted to survive this illness and get through high school. It was during her recovery post-cancer treatment that she realized there was more to living than just surviving life, which led her to explore what well-being truly encompasses.

​

In many ways, she became her own first coaching client. She took inventory of where she was– a new college student, post-cancer treatment feeling less than optimal in mind, body, and spirit– and began taking steps toward living a healthier life. Sustainable well-being was born through lifestyle changes, like adapting a plant-based diet, implementing daily mindfulness exercises, and prioritizing movement.

 

Since stepping into this path, Nicole has graduated with her Bachelors from Marist College, Masters in Psychology and Spirituality, Mind- Body Studies from Columbia University, and most recently has become a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach.

​

As a coach, Nicole meets her clients in an approachable and authentic way. She knows how tough behavior change can be and seeks to find her clients' strengths. Using evidence-based tools and strategies from the fields of health and wellness, spirituality, and psychology, she leads her clients to sustainable well-being. 

​

When Nicole isn't coaching, she enjoys making plant-based meals, writing memoir pieces, taking long bike rides by the beach, or hanging out with her friends and family.

 

 

In addition to her private practice, Nicole works as a Health Coach at Lief Therapeutics,  provides wellness sessions to children with cancer for the With Grace Initiative, and is a teacher and student at Project Write Now.
