They say when the student is ready, the teacher appears. With Catherine’s help I have been able to lose 30 lbs. and keep it off for over 3 years now! Catherine has taught me it’s not about food or weight, it’s about how I live my life. Once I got rid of my diet mentality and softened my black and white thinking, I was able to slowly integrate permanent changes in my life. The quality of my life has completely changed. I have learned how to relax and center myself and can meet almost any situation in my life without turning to food. This has been the greatest blessing of my life! I could never have done this without Catherine’s wonderful support and encouragement. ~ Lydia W.

I have loved working with Catherine first of all because she is so grounded, real and honest. She has been there done that and is so open about it. I feel like I have known her forever. She has helped me to have the courage to accept myself just as I am with all my imperfections and realize that I am enough but at the same time I can be and do anything I choose. I have learned to be my real self as well as my own cheerleader and to like the person I am. And two of the most important things she has helped me to see is “enough” in all things and as she says “How you do food is how you do life,” one of the most true statements I have ever heard. Catherine rocks!!!!!! ~ Sue D.

While working with Catherine, I enjoyed the fact that the person I met with on Skype was exactly who she claims to be on her website. No false pretenses here, she has a very deep and intense presence. Catherine is open minded, creative, and a great listener. Silence does not scare her off. She is flexible and easy to work with. If English is not your mother tongue as is my case, or if your way of life is far away from the American one, Catherine adapts.

She is also capable of breaking pain’s multiple and complex themes into smaller portions of essential information and clear guidance. She finds positive options and gives you choices whenever you feel stuck. Catherine knows where soul nourishment can be found.

In working with her, I’ve learned to love and respect myself, my needs, my timing. By stopping a well-trained self-hatred practiced for over 50 years, I have lost a huge spiritual weight that was asphyxiating my whole being. I’ve learned that unconditional love does not expect me to lose kilos or centimeters or dress sizes. Unconditional love makes me happy, caring and grateful with what is present. ~ Alice, Paris

I just really want to thank Catherine for saving my life.  I was literally at the end of my binge eating existence.  I had nowhere to go – no one to turn to.  I was frantic, scared and panicky.  I had been to counselors, psychiatrists, psychologists my whole life for my eating disorder. No one has ever helped me. I was not living a life.  It all revolved around candy.  Catherine listened to me and understood me.  She knew just what I needed.  From the very first session with her, I never binged on candy again.  She taught me how to fully enjoy life.  She truly saved my life and helped me to get on with living again.  I only wished I had found her sooner.

I cannot recommend Catherine too highly. Catherine’s gentle, positive, holistic, and action-oriented coaching has helped me far more than any psychological counseling or weight loss program has ever helped me before. She brings deep intuition, knowledge, and intelligence to her work. Catherine gets at the root of problems, clearing up space and energy for permanent change. Fear and stress yield to joy and pleasure. She is also deeply empowering (as so much “help” is not); that is, she makes every effort to work herself out of a job. ~ Kate Ward-Lehre, RN
