You listen intently with a genuine curiosity and concern that fosters an environment in which I feel the safety and freedom to show up raw, unfiltered, and vulnerable without hesitation. You approach it with a gentleness that feels more a steady hand of guidance rather than an iron fist of correction... And thank you for getting me to pause and reconnecting my mind and my body, putting them back on the same page.

Working with Vera has made a meaningful difference in how I handle everyday situations and manage stress. Before her coaching, past experiences would leave me feeling emotionally drained and affect how I responded to things happening in the present. Our work together helped me better understand those reactions and learn ways to manage them.

One of the most valuable things I’ve learned is recognizing when stress from the past is influencing a current situation. Having that awareness has helped me approach day to day challenges with more perspective, rather than letting those feelings overwhelm me. I feel better equipped to work through stressful moments instead of simply trying to hold everything together and stay in control.

I’m grateful for what she has helped me learn and how I’ve been able to apply it in my daily life. I would definitely recommend her coaching to anyone looking to better understand their stress responses and develop healthier ways to manage them.

Thank you again. I can’t emphasize this enough. Just these two past sessions have been so much more awakening than the years I did with Veteran Affairs.

Vera, I am so happy our paths crossed, the universe for whatever reason put you in my life. I have been seeing a therapist through the VA for almost 10 years, and it has not helped, almost feels like it’s made it worse. But only the two sessions we have had have been more awakening and beneficial to me than the years I saw the VA. The first session you made me feel so comfortable, I felt like I could tell you anything without judgment or guilt. You made me feel like I’ve known you for years. After the call I just felt alive and was able to hang onto that all week. I really appreciate how you talk “with me” not “at me”. I just want to thank you.

I was searching for a counsellor/ therapist for many years. When I finally came across Vera, I had an instant connection.
I reached out to Vera after reading her story.
Definitely someone that could relate to me through her own life experience.
When I met Vera, I was not driving on my own. I was not going to appointments on my own and within two months I’m doing everything on my own.

Vera is extremely wise knowledgable knows how to place her words never rushes her advice. She listens to everything you’ve got to say and her advice is very sound advice. Vera is not bias if she needs to put you in your spot you will be put in your spot. Vera also loves to laugh. She has a good soul and I have absolutely zero regret.. 🙏🙏🙏

Working with Vera was genuinely grounding and meaningful for me. She has a calm, compassionate presence that made it easy to open up, even during periods of high stress and uncertainty. Her approach to anxiety and life coaching felt thoughtful, practical, and deeply human — never rushed, never judgmental.
Vera has a real gift for helping you slow things down, gain clarity, and feel more anchored in yourself. I’m truly grateful for the support and perspective she offered during our time together, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for steadiness, insight, and care.

Vera’s coaching and guidance has left nothing but a positive impact on my life. I feel understood and heard during the sessions and at the same time she won’t hold back or sugarcoat anything. I truly feel like she gives me her energy during our time and genuinely cares. Her perspective on my situation comes with experience and wisdom. She has given me actionable tools to pursue my goals and I look forward to every session. I couldn’t recommend working with Vera enough.

Vera has been a valuable resource in my personal and professional growth. When I came to her my life was in a stage of chaos and my request was to find some serenity in the chaos. Vera has helped me find more balance, peace, and calm in my daily life. Although there is more work to do, it is reassuring to know I have Vera available to help guide my way toward more serenity and more Life.

I've had the pleasure of working with some incredible coaches in the past, but I can confidently say that Vera is the best coach I've ever had. What works really well for me about her is that she supports me in framing and reframing my thoughts to help me reach the mental state I need while encouraging me to stay true to myself.

Each session has been productive and insightful, always ending with actionable takeaways I can implement immediately. I truly appreciate her unique approach and support on my journey.

If you're looking for a coach who truly understands you and fosters genuine growth, I highly recommend her!

I cannot recommend Vera more highly!

Through both our informal interactions and scheduled sessions, she has always displayed such positivity, empathy and genuine care, combined with a great sense of professionalism.

Vera allows you to be yourself with her ability to create a safe and supportive environment, which was so important early on when I was dealing with a number of difficult emotions. She gave me a variety of tools and deep knowledge to allow me to slowly take back control of my thoughts and feelings.

I genuinely believe I've made huge strides in my mental wellbeing from my sessions with Vera and recommend her to anyone as an investment for their own health and wellbeing.

Steven W

I've attended four coaching sessions with Vera now and I cannot say enough about how grateful I am. Her holistic approach to wellness and non-judgmental appreciative inquiry of getting to the root of what is holding me back from reaching my goals is what I have come to greatly appreciate. The sessions feel intentional and actionable, and the opportunity to incorporate some breathwork and meditation into the sessions feels so right. The action plans we work through feel realistic and manageable, and I leave each session feeling heard, my body rejuvenated, my mind motivated. Thank you Vera!!

The universe led me to Vera after a devastating and life changing diagnosis and surgery at 44 years old. After filling my days, weeks and months with every type of therapy and support I could find; not feeling any of it would ever bring me back from the parallel universe I was locked in. There was Vera, at the right time, with the right energy. Her kind and loving words, the way she is connected and hears what my soul is requesting and needs to reconnect with this body and the world it is part of.

I cannot express how grateful I am to have found Vera. She is a real and loving advocate and teacher for my souls journey.

Vera is a gift. For all that you are I am grateful ❤️

I highly recommend Vera for her yoga instruction and life coaching. Vera is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of yoga and is excellent at guiding one through even the most difficult yoga sequences. Her sequences flow extremely well and she adeptly connects the poses with one’s mindfulness and breath. And in every class she provides words of encouragement, insight and wisdom and especially in her Yin and Yoga Nidra classes which leave me with a deep sense of calm and hope . I always feel very connected and present after one of Vera’s classes. Through her life coaching she provides strong empathy with what’s going on in my life which allows me to see a hopeful path forward no matter how chaotic and stressful things may be.

Steve D

Vera is a tremendous coach. She’s knowledgeable, caring, professional, an excellent communicator, takes her job seriously and has so many tools available to personalize her coaching to each client and provide what they need. I am so grateful and feel truly blessed to have her help.

Chrysinda A

Vera created time for me. Time to hear me, actively listen, and being things all together in a way I could easily digest and take action. Each week was framed around something new and no idel times. The weekly homework gave physical activities to tie in with mental recovery.

Ending every session with "what did I get this week? " allowed me to reflect on someone else's insights to my own words. Giving me a positive affirmation for the week!!!

Thanks VERA!!!!!

Brian S

Personally I’ve always dealt with things internally and on my own. After my initial call with Vera I felt like working with someone who showed the patience and understanding she showed could help me in ways I hadn’t thought of before. She made me sit in stillness which I hated 🤣 but really helped me to slow down and dig deep and work through stuff I had never taken the time to do before. I would (and have) recommend her to any of my friends who need an unbiased, understanding, and patient person to help them. 🙏🏽

Justin S

Vera is such a wonderful support and blessing in my life! She truly has guided me through several complex career and life challenges with absolute kindness, wisdom, and grace. I cannot thank her enough for all she does and I look forward to continuing to better myself through our sessions!

Thanks again Vera. Your coaching and guidance is a tremendous boost for me in walking this path. Easy to get lost on my own, but you keep me moving in the right direction sharing your wisdom and thought provoking advice on what I should reflect on throughout this journey.

I truly appreciate how you listen, process, and counsel me on my thoughts and how I am feeling. You know me after just a few hours of us working together. The universe connected us at the right time and you are just the perfect guide for me as I make transitions into another phase of life, career, and adventure.

Your wisdom, life experience, and most of all your listening skills and empathy are tremendous. Thanks so much, Vera. I value the working relationship we have.

Vera has made an incredible impact on my life in many levels. One, an honest individual with integrity is hard to come by, someone to keep you accountable, someone to guide you in self-reflection and embrace change. I can't speak highly enough of Vera and strongly recommend you connect with her.

Andrew K

Working with Vera over the past few months has been nothing short of life-changing.

Vera’s compassionate and caring nature extends beyond her yoga instruction. Her non-judgmental and supportive approach to life coaching has empowered me to prioritize my goals in a meaningful way, leading to profound and positive changes both in my personal relationships and in my career. With her guidance, I’ve gained clarity, confidence, and a renewed sense of purpose.

I cannot recommend Vera enough. Working with her has been one of the best decisions I’ve made.

Ryan H

Vera and I have been having sessions together for a while now. I must admit, I used to be one of those people who thought “I don't need anyone, I can reflect on myself by myself.” She proved me wrong!

While there are sometimes some uncomfortable conversations, this usually leads to new understandings of my behaviour, but there is never any judgement.

Things I hadn't thought about in decades resurfaced; it feels wonderful to finally be at peace with some of those memories and to realise how they might have impacted me.

It's an ongoing journey, but it's great to have found a trustworthy confidante who is helping to ensure the journey keeps going forwards.

Thank you, Vera!
