Tessa is passionate about relationships and personal growth and utilizes many different techniques to thoughtfully and personally guide you to make small simple changes that transform your daily life. Tessa exudes positivity, and her energetic, kind, loving spirit will
instantly have you feeling uplifted and cared for. The motto of “live true…love life” radiates in her personality. Self-growth is a continuum that never stops – the more we can be open and curious to continually learning, the more we can grow in abundance and love.

As an avid reader, researcher, and a lover of continuous learning, Tessa has developed extraordinary relationship skills and earned many certifications through 20 years of careers centered in client care, personal development, leadership, and happiness.
Tessa integrates her love of relationship science by weaving in the ingenious relationship and attachment research of Drs. John and Julie Gottman and Dr. Sue Johnson. She has also studied mindfulness, meditation, healing energy work, and holistic practices.

For fun and self care, Tessa is a spontaneous adventurer. Traveling, camping, being in nature, hiking, dancing, drumming, and gathering with friends and family are her happy places.

She is on her continuum of self and guided holistic therapies and her inward journey of wellness and growing into her higher vibrations, wisdom and humbleness of the ever evolving thoughts to be better today than how she showed up yesterday. Learning, growing, expanding is her daily practice and is what brings her joy!

She is immensely grateful for consciously creating many happy and rewarding years with her amazing husband, Brent.
