When You Know You Need Something More:

Mind-Body Support for

Stress, Healing, and Living Well

Nicole Lapuyade MA, NBC-HWC

Healing happens when we nourish our whole selves:

Mind, Body, and Spirit

As a board-certified health and wellness coach, guided imagery practitioner and single mom of a teenager, I know firsthand how challenging it can be to juggle work, family, and self-care. But, I also know that small, mindful steps can lead to big shifts. I came into this work while raising a son and navigating my own burnout, so I get it.

My approach is simple and supportive. I teach small, doable practices that help you feel more rested, clear-headed, and in control of your day — without adding more to your plate.

I believe in a complementary healing approach that honors the work of our medical care teams and incorporates proven integrative health practices. My background includes 28 years in the lab, researching cancer & HIV, and a Master’s in Integrative Health.

Whether through one-on-one coaching, guided imagery, or group workshops, I create a space where you can finally take a breath. Together, we’ll focus on what helps you feel better — physically, emotionally, mentally — so you can show up for your life with more ease and energy.

If you're ready for things to feel lighter, let’s start with one small step.


“Nicole is fantastic at guided imagery. The imagery she helped me create helps me a great deal during chemo, as well as when I’m getting overwhelmed. I am so lucky to have found her!” M.G.
