In the Words of Fibromyalgia Trailblazers

"I suffered with symptoms for many years, and did as much research as possible but, feeling stuck and frustrated, I knew I needed help, so I reached out to Gisèle. Not only did I now have a professional I could ask real questions to, she also had insights into my health that I would not have found on my own. She gave me the tools to help me learn how to manage my own symptoms, and she helped me find new ways to accomplish the things I need and want to do. Gisèle truly cared about me as an individual, and she was trained with the tools to help me learn the coping skills I needed to manage my health and life with fibromyalgia. I feel in control for the first time in a very long time. My life is easier to manage now, and I'm looking forward to a future that I didn't think possible before. Working one-on-one with Gisèle was one of the best investments I could have ever made

in my health and future."

 

- Carrie, Fibromyalgia

"Gisèle's medical background was a big bonus for me. I started seeing improvements and that made me a believer that something could change. I learned the skills to

navigate life with my conditions. Working with her has helped me to feel so much more in control to

substantially improve my pain and energy levels.

There is hope for feeling better and you don't have to live like this... you can learn to live better! Gisèle's coaching has taught me that and I'm enjoying my life again."

 

- Nichi, Fibromyalgia & EDS

"Gisèle is an experienced health professional with remarkable expertise in coaching and an authentic

interest in the wellbeing of her clients."  

- Dr. Shahab Anari, MD, PCC, Toronto, Ontario

"I didn't know if I'd be able to continue working and was afraid for my future. I used to feel very much alone, worried, and vulnerable. Through Gisèle's coaching, I've now gone back to full-time work and feel better than ever! She helped me come up with good solutions both at work and at home. I've learned what my body needs to feel more energetic and less painful. I feel empowered, organized, and positive about planning for my future now. She's a very good listener, and empathetic with a really good sense of humour! That's important to me, especially when things were tough to handle around my health."  

- Bobbi, Fibromyalgia & Hashimoto's

"How can I ever put into words how much I appreciate Gisèle and all her support - she's the BEST coach ever! I am so truly grateful for her. I know that with her on my side, I'll always be able to achieve my health goals."

 

- Susan, MS

 "I chose Gisèle because she's a health professional and her personal life experience was also important to me. Twelve years of either being misdiagnosed or not even believed at times, had left me feeling very confused and lonely. With Gisèle, I have a safe place now! I feel totally supported, heard, validated, and comforted. Her guidance is always positive, gentle, and caring. I feel more confident already,

as she helps me learn about the tools to building my

toolbox. I never thought I would experience joy again

in my life and I'm deeply appreciative."   

- Tamy, Fibromyalgia & BII

"Thanks to Gisèle's coaching I've learned about my conditions, and gained a better understanding of what I can do to feel better. I now know how to care for myself in ways that make a real difference. She's also helped me find the

type of treatments that I needed to improve my health.

Working with Gisèle, I've felt totally heard, validated, and understood. I'm a lot more confident now, and feel that the quality of my life doesn't have to be defined by my illnesses anymore. I can finally plan for a better future, and in fact, I'm finally able to plan for my wedding!" 

 

- Leslie, Fibromyalgia & ME/CFS

"I had done a lot of research on my own, and was feeling really low, mad at myself, and overwhelmed. It felt like I had to do so much to feel better, but at the same time I couldn't do anything, because my fatigue and pain levels were so high. Having Gisèle to talk to, while knowing that she's living a positive life with fibromyalgia, has been very helpful. Thanks to her knowledgeable, compassionate, empowering, and holistic coaching approach, I've learned how to be in the driver's seat again. She gently guided me on the path toward improving my symptoms, finding the right treatment options, and making the lifestyle changes I needed to make. I'm also much kinder to myself now. I can set good boundaries while knowing that it's okay to ask for help too. Not only do I feel in control now, but my symptoms have all improved. My energy has gone up, I feel better, and my pain is down. Things are going well again at work and I was even able to go paddleboarding twice this month already! My life is just so much better now!"  

- Samantha, Fibromyalgia

" Gisèle is a truly inspiring and brilliant coach! She's open and easy to talk with about absolutely anything. Without any hesitation, I would recommend Gisèle to everyone!"

 

- Nicole, Fibromyalgia

"I've worked with Gisèle for the past few years. She became a tremendous support for those times I felt the world crashing in on me with uncertainties. I've not come across anyone who is as caring, compassionate, and inspiring as her. She always has a tender approach to encourage you to explore options that may help improve your quality of life, while seeking fresh answers to the many health issues I have that bring regular challenges. Thanks Gisèle, for helping me when I need clarity to keep moving forward. You're a tremendous blessing in my life."
