Testimonials

Here is what people had to say about working with Katie Valley Wellness

Katie is amazing! Her kind heart and client-based approach is second to none. I appreciate her ability to relate to my struggles with body imagine and diet culture because she has been there. Katie is very professional and respectful. She is always on time for sessions and respects her clients' time, which as a busy working mom is so important. I highly recommend Katie Valley Wellness!

Katie Valley is a miracle. She helped me rethink my relationship with food, and she did so with gentleness and humor. After our first session, I already felt like I was talking with a trusted friend. If you landed here, it’s because you’re thinking about going on this journey; Katie Valley will be a great guide for you. Reach out to her and start getting better.

Going through Katie’s intuitive eating program was such a game changer for me. I had been familiar with intuitive eating for some time and had even tried the program on my own a year prior but was unsuccessful (I later learned I had put conditions on my unconditional permission to eat). I finally decided to reach out to someone and am so glad I found Katie. She really helped me make some small behavioral changes that have had a huge impact as well as helping me reframe my negative thoughts as I work to unlearn diet culture we’ve all been fed for too long. She also helped me recognize my progress when I was being too hard on myself for not doing enough. I love that she had a structure to her program because for someone who was so lost in the beginning I would not have even been able to identify my issues. But on days when I had something specific to discuss she was flexible to listen and always helped me through my questions. I’ve carried such shame around food and my body for so long but her calming, judgement free presence really allowed me to be vulnerable and get as much out of our time together as I could. It’s been a month or so since my program ended with her and while I named my diet brain Judy during our time together, it’s Katie that has stayed in my mind when I catch myself in thoughts of what I shouldn’t be doing…asking why and what’s so wrong with what I’m doing. It was such a joy to work with her but she also laid a great foundation where I’ve been able to see improvements continuing after our time together. Change is slow but undoing 35 years of diet brain takes time and my work with her has helped me be okay with where I am at which has had an immensely positive effect on my life.

Working with Katie has truly changed my life. She has taught me so much about nutrition, maintaining balance, body image, and most of all just how strong of a woman I am. I went to Katie looking to understand how food even works and how I could love myself once again, and she has definitely improved both of those things for me! I know so much more about food now than I ever have and it has shown me that I never need to restrict "bad foods," as Katie always tells me "it's all about balance and not perfection!" I am a college student, so eating and body image were hard for me to grasp when I always felt so ashamed of my body. Katie has shown me, and I actually believe it, that I am beautiful and that being healthy has many different shapes and sizes.
Katie was also very affordable for all of the information and coaching that she provides. I utilized her payment plan and it made it super nice and easy for me to pay month by month!
I am so grateful to have worked with her and I am excited to continue my relationship with her. 15/10 would recommend!

Intuitive Eating has made SUCH a profound impact on my life and I am SO glad we crossed paths. Truly - you are amazing at what you do and I thank you for everything! :) 

Through the program, I was able to get back to listening to my body and what it needs, eating mindfully and enjoying life again. I used to have so much stress and anxiety when I ate around people, which ended up causing me to overeat, but now I can truly enjoy socializing, eating without guilt, and trusting my body to tell me when I'm full. I also gained the skills to set small goals towards a healthier lifestyle, which helps to re-build self-integrity. Finally, Katie has helped me to move away from body hatred and towards body positivity, which has helped to build my confidence and overall mental health. I loved working with Katie!

I came to Katie because, after decades of dieting and negative self talk, I wanted to break these habits. I have weight cycled from going on and off diets for decades now and it was affecting my mental and physical health. To be at peace with my body, with food and with physical movement is life changing.

I have spent more than two decades hating my body, bingeing, dieting, restricting food and feeling so much shame around exercise, food and connecting it to my self-worth. Undoing the beliefs that come from diet culture, that are so deeply ingrained in our society is hard work. But it's worth it. To be able to sit at a restaurant and enjoy a meal and the company I'm with and not feel panicked, overeat to the point of feeling sick really brings a lot of joy back into my life. I'm incredibly grateful to have been to able to begin this journey with Katie!

After years of digestive issues following cancer diagnoses, I was feeling very bloated and anxious with little confidence in myself. I saw my health going down a road that I was not fond of, but no matter how hard I tried, I could not get myself back on track.

Enter Katie.

I was looking for someone who would take a look at my health as a whole rather than just what I ate. I really wanted someone I could learn from, someone who would teach me health and wellness. I could not be happier or more grateful that the universe put Katie in my path.

She is incredibly knowledgeable in her practice, breaking things down scientifically and making sure I understand. She really listened to what I was suffering from and made small tweaks to start out, so I wasn't overwhelmed to begin. This is not a "one size fits all" approach with her. She carefully individualized what I needed and where I was comfortable with starting. If all that isn't enough- she is kind and thoughtful.

I can feel that my body has already begun the healing process by what Katie has put in place for me. My bloating is minimal, my digestive system is improving. Though I know that I have a long way to go in my journey, I also know that I have a team member and coach in Katie.

If anyone is suffering, I highly encourage you to reach out to her. You will not regret it for a single moment.
