About Me
Ellen graduated with a Bachelors degree in Health Promotion and minored in Nutrition at The University of Alabama. She also earned a Masters degree in Exercise Physiology from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. In Birmingham, she interned as a cardiac rehabilitation exercise physiologist, a position she also held at FirstHealth hospital system in Pinehurst, North Carolina. She recently earned her Master Health and Wellness certification through AFPA. Because she believes in offering the highest quality of service for her clients, she is currently pursuing National Board Health and Wellness Coach Certification.
Ellen and her husband have three teenage children and naturally, all three play three different sports on three different teams. It has been a struggle for Ellen to figure out an exercise and wellness plan for herself while taking care of everyone else. This has created her passion for helping others realize that they deserve to feel their best, not only for their families, but most importantly, for themselves.
Expertise
Top Specialties:
1) Weight loss
2) Work-life balance
3) Stress Management for parents of neurodivergent children
As a working mother of three neurodivergent children, as well as an educator of 18 years, Ellen knows the specific struggle of advocating for the needs of children who need to learn in a different way. These stressors often lead to the decline of the parents' well-being. By using processes from Positive Intelligence, Ellen's clients are able to increase their energy, wellness, and confidence in all areas of life's challenges.
