Work with Judy
Integrative Wellness Coach
Nervous system regulation is at the heart of what I do.
Why? Because in a world that constantly pushes us to go faster, do more, and ignore our limits, it’s easy to fall into patterns that deplete us instead of nourishing us.
My work combines practical brain science, positive psychology, breathwork, and other body-based tools with compassionate coaching support.
Together, we transform habits of stress, self-criticism, and reactivity into new ways of living and relating—so you can experience more power, peace, and possibility with food, at the table, in your relationships, and in the choices you make for yourself, your community, and the planet.
It's like taking your nervous system to the gym!
Who I work with
I work with people who are tired of feeling stressed out, burned out, self-ctitical or at odds with themselves every time they try to make changes in their lives.
You may struggle with stress eating or stress scrolling—reaching for food or your phone when you’re overwhelmed, anxious, or lonely.
You may find yourself reacting to situations emotionally rather than responding appropriately, with your relationships paying the price.
You may be caught in an adversarial relationship with yourself—chased by your self-critical inner tiger as you struggle with reaching the gols you want to reach
Or you may find it difficult to set bondaries on yor time, energy, or attention, resulting in burnout at work, exhaustion with family demands, or depletion due to a lack of self-care.
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. And it’s not a matter of willpower—it’s your nervous system doing its best to help you cope in a world that often pushes us to go faster, do more, and ignore our own needs.
My work is for people who want to:
End the cycle of stress and self-criticism—at the table and in their lives.
Learn simple, practical tools to shift out of fight-or-flight mode and enjoy a life with greater peace and possibility.
Manage the stress and anxiety of transitions and chart a sustainable path forward.
Rebuild a joyful, nourishing relationship with food.
Explore how slowing down can bring more calm, connection, and balance into everyday life.
Recognize how stress and burnout are not just personal struggles but a response to a culture of depletion—and begin reclaiming a different way of being.
When we work together you will:
-
Understand why your brain and body react the way they do—so you can work with them, not against them
-
Learn to shift out of anxiety and reactivity—and into clarity, self-compassion, and emotional steadiness
-
Develop simple, consistent practices that rewire your nervous system for greater peace and ease and transform what you bring to the table
-
Receive support in setting and maintaining healthy boundaries—so you can thrive, even when the world around you feels chaotic and depleting
-
Begin to let go of control—and learn to listen to the deeper, wiser part of you, so you can take inspired action in your life—whatever that looks like for you
-
Recognize how stress, distraction, and burnout are not just personal struggles but part of the culture we live in—and discover how your personal shifts can ripple outward to help create healthier, more regenerative systems around you.
What people are saying...
"Working with Judy is like having a personal trainer for my nervous system."
- JS, Student"I refer many of my patients to Judy at some point. She has a unique gift for meeting people where they are, finding the core issues that are constraining them, and coming up with tools and strategies that are both simple and profoundly effective in helping them transform their lives."
- Anne Vaillant, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner"Judy has the ability to teach and share her immense knowledge in understandable and relatable ways. I continue to notice the rewards from the learning and practices. I am less reactive, less fearful, more confident and living more authentically and with ease. Simply life-changing!"
- CL, Accountant"Judy's work is pure brilliance with a good dose of gentleness, too. I am a big fan of the powerful methods she uses for anxiety relief, happiness, and trauma recovery. She is an anxiety and wellness genius!"
- Val Nelson, Business Coach"Approaching anxiety from the bottom up was more helpful than anything else I tried. I have tried CBT, IFS, and 'talk therapy,' and never felt as though it had significant impact. Judy provided me with invaluable tactics and support. I left the program feeling more grounded, able to handle the stressors and ultimately less anxiety."
- AS, Operations Manager"Judy is skilled and compassionate. She encouraged me to investigate the stories I was telling myself and helped me rewrite years-old scripts that were holding me back in what I wanted in life."
- AM, Nutritionist
I am a Wellness Coach and Educator, not a psychotherapist. Skill-building and coaching support can be an effective adjunct to other forms of treatment, but they are not a substitute for appropriate medical or mental health care. I do not take insurance, although some HSAs may reimburse for health coaching.
Located in Easthampton, MA. Seeing clients virtually.
