Testimonials
I met Devin in a moment when I had made some big steps on my own – after years of smoking and 2 years of suffering with eating disorders, I had vowed to change my lifestyle. However, I realized that I had no coping skills without those outlets. Devin met me exactly where I was at – and supported me through one of the most difficult, terrifying and exciting times of my life. He provided guidance and gently opened up my thinking to new ideas about health, balance, and self-knowledge. I am truly a stronger, more aware, and more realistic person today, and I could not have done it without Devin's help.
In the six months that we worked together, Devin slowly introduced reflective exercises that supported the good habits I already had around food and exercise, as well as challenging me in each session to experiment with new ways to relax without outside stimulants, to focus on larger goals, and to increase my own self worth. His ability to understand the needs of his clients, listen and support without judgment, and create pathways to real, sustainable change make him a great health counselor.

Doing the health counseling program with Devin was truly a transformative experience. I was already thoughtful about my eating habits and had a steady regimen of weight training and yoga practice, but I wanted to explore what I could do to cultivate an even happier and healthier life. I also suffered from frequent bouts of joint pain since I was a young teenager. All of the doctors I saw over the years had no answers for me. I had come to see this as simply being a part of my life that I would always have to deal with. Devin challenged that assumption and through our work together I have experienced a drastic reduction in my pain. Through his deep listening and gentle pushing, Devin also helped me examine other areas of my life that were out of balance and got me excited about some new foods I had never tried. Devin created a safe, caring, professional environment very condusive to personal growth. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their health or lead a more fulfilling life.

Working with Devin changed my life. Before I started the health counseling program, I was stuck in a serious rut. There were a number of areas in my life that needed serious attention. My yoga practice was stagnating, my diet was all over the place, my emotions were on a roller-coaster, and my social life was unsatisfying. After working with Devin for six months, I felt like a new person. He helped me to identify the areas of my life that needed balancing, and he offered very realistic suggestions for achieving that balance. I never felt like I was being lectured or told what to do. His calm nature and attentiveness made it possible for me to come to my own realizations. Devin has found his calling! I truly believe that being a health counselor is something he was born to do! I would recommend him to anyone who is ready to make some serious changes in their life.
