Approach

Gretchen, as a Holistic Wellness Coach, adopts a comprehensive approach to guide individuals toward improved well-being. Collaborating closely with her clients, she identifies areas needing attention and systematically works towards wellness goals, addressing aspects like nutrition, exercise, routines, stress management, pace of life, and habits. Gretchen emphasizes a client-centered approach, empowering individuals with personalized knowledge for a unique path to enhanced health and a deep trust in what works best for them.

As a Reiki Practitioner Gretchen strives to bring Reiki into anything and everything that she does. It is by living the Reiki precepts and practicing Reiki daily that she is able to confidently offer Reiki tenohira (palm healing) to others. During tenohira Ki (energy) flows through the hands and is guided by the wisdom of the client’s heart and body to receive exactly what it needs. Reiki helps individuals recall their wholeness and reconnect to their true self, or inner bright light.

By combining science and wisdom, mind and body, East and West, Gretchen supports clients in achieving a greater state of health in mind, body, and spirit.
