Working with Shenisse these past few years has been nothing short of life-changing. My life is drastically improved at having learned and experienced her teachings first-hand. She is unendingly patient and kind, and she is as open as the universe- expansive in all things. From her knowledge of the healing I needed, to her unconditional acceptance of me as a person, she is ever-surprising in her depth. She is the type of person you never feel shame with. In her vulnerability, you can become more vulnerable. Shenisse is calm, loving, and peaceful even when approaching very uncomfortable truths. She creates a safe space free from expectation and pressure. It is not often that a single person can hold so many wise and valuable qualities, however, Shenisse is no ordinary person. She has made my life more vibrant in color and richer in joy. I am infinitely happy to know her and grateful that she continues to do this very hard yet vital work.

As a longtime friend and associate, I have marveled at Lori’s work ethic, her devotion to family and her passion for higher living. She has been an unremitting source of inspiration and guidance to many, I’m sure, but none more profoundly than myself. Her life is truly a reflection of her inner journey and her unwavering commitment to helping others realize their own personal joy and fulfillment.

Shenisse is so warm and welcoming that you can't help but feel comfortable and at ease around her. She has a genuine desire to help everyone around her. She's helped me recognize and understand my own inner power, my spirituality, my strength, and my potential in life. Shenisse is a beautiful soul and if you want to go on a ride that will expand your world, and your understanding of yourself, she is a guide you’ll be grateful to have by your side.

Lori has been our massage therapist for nearly ten years. Even though we have moved thirty miles from her place of business, we continue to be her clients. Lori is thoughtful, kind, calm, competent, knowledgeable, and a GREAT listener. She sincerely wants her clients to feel relaxed, tranquil, and still in mind and body. Besides all that she is a genuinely good person; a real treasure.

I have known Shenisse for many years. She is a thoughtful, intelligent and passionate person. She has always sought to help others and has exhibited a special talent for healing the spirit, mind and body of those with whom she interacts. I trust Shenisse implicitly to always seek to make the lives around her better. She has impacted my life profoundly, teaching me about cutting edge philosophies and imparting a wisdom that belies her age. When it comes to helping others, she is in a class of her own. Her empathy is expressed in all she says and does. I wholeheartedly recommend Shenisse to anyone looking for a kind, caring and understanding person to aid in healing, and as a wise and calm guiding hand.

I have known Lori for 20 years. For most of that time I have been a massage therapy client in her practice. Her treatments have helped me overcome serious pain and weakness in my arms, legs, neck and lower back. In addition, I have learned that her attitude and approach to ensuring good physical health involves nurturing mental and emotional health, as well. Lori is a therapist who practices with exceptional professionalism and competence. She treats all of her clients and friends with great care, concern and respect. She is always compassionate and supportive without being judgmental. She also shares her considerable knowledge and expertise of best health practices and lifestyle changes for the benefit of all in her care. She has helped me greatly with advice regarding good nutrition, physical exercise and positive thinking. In summary, Lori is a person I admire and trust as a professional therapist and close friend.

Shenisse is someone who gets to the roots of issues- and no matter what medicine she recommends, the heart is always the same- to heal what sometimes feels untouchable. She would never tell anyone to do anything she hasn’t done or wouldn’t do herself, and she always encourages questions. I will warn you her solutions don’t work if you half-ass them, you have to be intelligent and embody them. But she is also someone who understands that everybody is different and everyone’s path is unique. I would go as far as to say that it’s at the center of her practice. As a mother to 6 and a woman who has lived in poverty- she’s no stranger to struggle- and is incredibly familiar with using the tool of resistance, of staying strong. She isn’t one to judge the “size” of your struggle- is just there with you when you open up about it. Her healing is about becoming who we were before we were wounded and stopped believing in ourselves, about becoming who we are when we’re connected with the best of us.

I have known Lori for my whole life and could not ask for a better friend and mentor in life. Lori and my parents were and still are best of friends and have given us the same wonderful friendship that has spanned across time. No matter how much time passes between us talking she has always been “present” talking to me and helping me with her insight and careful guidance. She does so by never making me feel my life and situations are small or insignificant. I believe Lori’s ability to listen, ingest and give help and encouragement is a product of having years of experience with love, hardship and diversity. Her insight and true caring is so very apparent with every word she says. She is also very adamant about giving true and sometimes hard to hear insight and truth even when not easy. I honestly believe Lori has been put on earth to help others and this work to be a better, truthful and more caring planet. I thank her for being my friend and giving me care I don’t always give myself and should expect as a living being. I feel like I could burst with respect and love for Lori, for this I am forever grateful. Forever her friend.

Shenisse is a very kind and open person. She has an extremely big heart that has absolutely no judgment in it. Talking to her is like talking to a friend you have known your whole life. I highly recommend her coaching because she cares and will always help you become the best you.

I have been a fortunate client of Lori’s for nearly 12 years and from our first meeting it was clear she was extremely knowledgeable about her field, professional, and passionate about helping people feel better from a holistic perspective—body and soul. She cares deeply about the well-being of her clients. Informed by her excellent skills of perception and years of experience, Lori has a very keen intuition about what people need and how to best meet those needs. I have learned a great deal from her over the years from approaches to parenting to how to care for my body and best engage in healthy practices. She is consistently affirming and positive. I’m grateful that she is a part of my self-care team!
