MEET VANESSA SACKS
Hello, amazing people! I'm Vanessa, a Nationally Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC) and social worker. My life experiences, including surviving Lyme disease and ovarian cancer, led me to support others experiencing menopause and chronic pain.
At under 30 years old, I faced early menopause and constant pain after several surgeries, feeling dismissed by doctors and misunderstood by peers. Determined to change this, I spent 13 years researching, networking, and advocating for better menopause awareness. Surprised by how many others shared my struggles, I became a holistic health coach at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition.
With 15 years in wellness programs and specialized chronic pain training, I now offer high-level coaching focused on healing and empowerment.
I strive to provide a safe, inclusive space for everyone. I'm here for you—it's my purpose, and I am so grateful. Ready to take the next step? Book a call today!
FOCUSING ON YOU
If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, you are not alone! Together, we can treat them using proven neuroscientific methods and a warm empathetic approach. You’ve got this!
Weight Gain
While beautiful, strong, and healthy bodies come in all shapes and sizes, you know when something is off and needs addressing.
Sleep Disturbance
If you struggle with staying and falling asleep, you are in need of much deserved rest. Fortunately, there are many solves that we can work through.
Brain Fog
Spaciness and forgetfulness seem to be BFF’s with menopause, but that’s a relationship I’m going to help you end.
Chronic Pain
So many folks live with long-term chronic pain but few know that it ALL pain originates in the brain. The good news is we can work to turn down the pain!
Testimonials
“Vanessa is such a wonderful, empowering spirit to encounter. Her words helped me to believe in myself enough to ask better questions to my doctors, and even move on from the practitioners that weren’t working for me. That would have never occurred to me otherwise, and saved me so much time and money”.
— Kaycee K.
“Vanessa completely transformed my way of thinking. Although I don't have pain, I was still able to use the program to help with my POTS. I can not thank Vanessa enough. I never felt judged, always felt supported, and I was able to remove a lot of self judgement/shoulds/shame around my progress.”
— Catie L.
“Vanessa is totally nonjudgemental and 100% supportive of every step I take, even if that step was backwards. She's been through quite a lot herself, and relates absolutely to the process, the recovery, and the humanness of all of it.”
