Welcome to Embodied You

A therapy-informed personal training program designed to build strength in the gym and sustainable habits for holistic wellness. We’ll address the mental, emotional, and physical barriers that keep you stuck in the cycle of starting over.

You know the drill…

Monday morning motivation hits, you map out the "perfect" workout schedule, buy all the right foods, and this time feels different... Until Wednesday rolls around and your hectic schedule derails everything. Again. Until you miss one workout and that familiar voice whispers "See? You don't have the willpower for this." Until you're back where you started, scrolling through conflicting fitness advice at 11 PM, feeling overwhelmed and wondering what's wrong with you.

Here's the truth: Nothing is wrong with you.

The Real Problem Isn't Your "Lack of Willpower"

If you're like most people I work with, you've been trying to force mainstream solutions onto your unique life circumstances. You've been told to:

  • Exercise 5 times a week (when you barely have 5 minutes some days)

  • Follow rigid meal plans (that ignore your family's needs, work schedule, and food preferences)

  • "Just push through" resistance (while your brain fights you every step of the way)

No wonder it feels impossible. You're not broken—you're human. And humans need approaches that work WITH their brain's natural patterns, not against them.

Meet Your Coach!

Hi! I'm Cristey, a Certified Personal Trainer, Trauma-Informed Weightlifting Coach, and Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. My passion is people: To know, to love, to inspire, and to empower others to step into their most authentic selves.

As both a therapist and fitness professional, I occupy a unique space in the wellness world. I understand that your resistance to exercise isn't about laziness, your inconsistency isn't about lack of willpower, and your struggle with routines isn't about motivation. These are natural responses from a nervous system trying to keep you safe in familiar patterns, even when those patterns no longer serve you.

I've had the true honor of coaching athletes of all abilities over the past several years, while also supporting folks through their healing journey in the therapy chair. Regardless of the setting, my goal is to share the positive impact of movement and exercise on mental health, while encouraging folks to find movement that feels empowering and joyful to them.

I’m here to make health and fitness simple for you. There are no tricks or shortcuts to sustainable change or building the life you want to live—just honest, humble work. The key to success is consistency: showing up for yourself in small ways, day after day, that compound to create your big picture. If you’re ready to take that first step, reach out today and let’s get started

My Credentials:

  • NASM - CPT

  • CrossFit L1 Trainer

  • Certified Trauma-Informed Weightlifting Coach

  • Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (MA and FL)

Lets Work Together

What if Exercise Could Feel Empowering Instead of Intimidating?

What if you could finally trust yourself to stick with healthy habits—even when life gets chaotic?

What if building a healthier lifestyle felt easeful instead of exhausting?

As a therapist who specializes in behavior change, I understand something most fitness professionals miss: Your struggles with consistency aren't about motivation—its about stepping out of the comfort of your current routine and into an unknown territory we like to call change.

Maybe Its Time to Try Something Different…

Finally, a fitness approach designed for real humans with real lives

Holistic personal training takes the whole person into account when designing wellness plans: Body, mind, lifestyle, and longterm wellbeing. We’ll use proven therapeutic techniques to create a sustainable and consistent fitness routine and master habits that help you feel confident inside and out of the gym, all while honoring your unique life circumstances.

Core Elements of Holistic Personal Training:

Physical Health → Strength, mobility, endurance, and functional movement.

Nutrition & Lifestyle → Guidance on fueling your body, sleep, stress management, and habits that support your goals.

Mindset & Mental Well-Being → Building confidence, resilience, and a healthy relationship with movement.
