1:1 Coaching For Professionals Apply To Work With Me
support is half the battle.

Private coaching where you can feel safe, supported & seen.

 

When we work together, I’m not just tracking your behavior with food or body image—I’m listening for the deeper story: what’s driving it, what’s protecting you, and what you’ve had to do to survive. I’ll reflect back the things you’ve stopped noticing about yourself, including your strengths, and I’ll challenge you towards authenticity. I pay attention, I ask questions, and support you when things get messy. This work isn’t just professional for me—it’s personal. I want you to recover, too.

Are you ready to...

 

  • Move away from the scarcity mindset

    and feel “normal” around food?

  • Regain control over your anxiety and stress

    through effective nervous system regulation?

  • Discover a method for feeling more at peace with your body

    in a realistic way?

  • Cultivate self-compassion

    (even if it gives you the ick)  and redirect your inner bully? 

This is where we start untangling the knots.

We’ll slow it down, sort it out, and rebuild safety and trust from the inside out.

What's Included

Weekly Personalized 1:1 Calls:

Dive into weekly 1:1 calls tailored to address your specific struggles with food, body image, or stress & trauma, providing “just right” targeted strategies and consistent support to foster sustainable change over time.

Access to VIDEO COURSE MODULES

3-6 month clients have access to a library of video resources focused on binge recovery, body image, somatic tools, and gentle nutrition as applicable. You will also receive guided meditations and somatic practices tailored to your needs throughout the program.

WhatsApp Support Between Calls:

In addition to our weekly Zoom sessions, you’ll have weekday access to me on WhatsApp for voice and text messaging. This is here for the in-between moments—the ones that don’t always make it into a scheduled call but still matter. This container is designed to help you feel connected, seen, and heard regularly.

Somatic Integration:

Use of Somatic Experiencing techniques to create a deeper connection that bridges the gap between cognitive and embodied. My training in somatic therapy underpins my approach; sessions are not just about cognition and talking, but also weaving nervous system regulation in the here and now, session by session.

“What I value most about you as a coach is your honesty, sincerity, empathy and compassion.

I never feel dismissed or judged. I also respect and value that you've been in my shoes before. That means a lot to me, and made me see that it's possible to heal. You are down-to-earth, non-judgmental, and good listener. Also, you have an ability to listen to things that have happened and draw connections or understand what that truly may be about.”

Working with Stefanie has fundamentally changed how I view my body and manage my emotions.

I now feel a sense of neutrality and acceptance towards my body, celebrating it in new ways like confidently wearing clothes that show off my shape. I've gained a deeper understanding of my emotional eating patterns and developed more compassionate responses to them. My mindset has shifted significantly; I no longer believe my body needs to change to fit an ideal, nor do I feel controlled by food. I've learned to value myself more, believe in my right to take up space, and express myself freely through my choices. This experience has opened up new ways of thinking, not just about food and my body, but about my entire life, allowing me to live more authentically and with less fear.

I always admired you from your Instagram content and free “closet coaching” sessions and weekly emails but once I invested in coaching I was really blown away.

I can’t even identify one thing I liked best. Words can’t do it justice but I’ll always be praising you for the combination of your empathetic, rational, knowledgable, research-based and effective approach. And it made it even better than you have been where I was an am and are open to share it as well as insights re the challenges of so many other people you have helped. I didn’t expect this program would make an indelible effect on my life, but honestly it might be the best investment I have ever made.

I can’t believe we started working together 2 years ago. Here we are and I can’t believe the difference in me and how much I’ve changed.

My boundaries and emotions... I couldn’t have done it without you. I have figured out who I am and what I want and what triggers my binges. Eating-wise, my relationship with food is so much better. I don’t freak out with food or have weird food habits like when I started. THANK YOU!

Sally H.

I used to be afraid to go back home after work because I feared binging.

Stef, I’m telling you... it's so crazy but wonderful... I’m not afraid of it anymore. Thank you!

Kora

You are going to be okay.

Because the way we relate to food and our bodies — how we let ourselves feel hungry, what it means to be full, how safe we feel to show up and be seen — is really how we relate to ourselves, and the life we're living.
