Meet Health Coach and Yoga Therapist

About Elise.

Elise has had the privilege of working with 800+ professionals in the NY metro area where she witnessed not just the desire and know-how for sustainable self-care but the gap that coaching conversation bridges between just getting by and living well. This was the inspiration that led her to pursue her business.

 

Headquartered in Simsbury, CT and available worldwide, Elise's work is rooted in regaining self-trust and know-how. Advice-free and honest, this work honors values and desires completely, weaving in tools to leverage along the way.

 

Lifestyle Coaching and Integrative Yoga Therapy offer both the accountability and agency in creating new patterns that so many are missing in pursuit of realizing the life they want and how they want to feel in it.
