It's rare for anyone to get an hour to work on their nutrition and goals with a trained professional. As a Health Coach, I create a supportive environment that will enable you to achieve all of your health goals. I have studied all the major dietary theories and use practical lifestyle coaching methods to guide you in discovering which approach works best for you.
Most approaches to nutrition dwell on calories, carbs, fats, and proteins. Instead of creating lists of restrictions and good and bad foods, I coach my clients to create a happy, healthy life in a way that is flexible, fun and free of denial and discipline. No one diet works for everyone. I will guide you to find the food and lifestyle choices that best support you.

I have been studying wellness and nutrition, applying these concepts to my own life for well over two decades.
I am a certified personal trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), am board certified as a holistic health practitioner through the American Association of Drugless Practitioners (AADP), I have received my certification as a Holistic Health Counselor through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN), and I have received my Transformational Coaching Method certification through Holistic MBA.

Have you ever received good advice that you were unable to follow? Has your doctor ever recommended a healthy lifestyle change that you found to be unsustainable? Have you ever wanted something in your life, but found you couldn't achieve it alone? Health Coaches are knowledgeable advisors who provide ongoing support and guidance as you set healthy lifestyle goals and make sustainable changes that improve your health and happiness.
My life has been through considerable change in the last few years and the stress of some of those changes took a toll on me physically and emotionally. Even though I was working out and eating healthfully, I was not seeing significant change. I became frustrated and depressed. A friend recommended I contact La Paz Wellness because Maria had made such a great impact in her life as her life coach and nutritionist.

My 90 minute deep tissue massage was excellent! I left feeling relaxed and the tension I hold in my back and neck was gone. Thalia listened to everything I had to say and applied just the right pressure. I highly recommend Thalia for a wonderful massage.

Thalia is the best. I went to see her on a recommendation from my chiropractor after a car accident. She sped up my recovery time. She is extremely knowledgeable, organized, on time, and explained everything she was doing and what could help me outside our sessions.

Thalia is AMAZING
She does everything from Swedish to deep tissues to cupping and more. I am a student-athlete, she works with my busy schedule while working with all my injuries. I am able to train consistently because of her. Good energy, very sweet, and strong!! I have been seeing multiple therapist to find the right one and only see her from now on. I’ve been having a lot of neck & pinched nerve problems and after seeing her I’m able to train again! Worth every penny!!

Oh my goodness! The best massage I’ve ever had....by far! Thalia is extremely intuitive, caring, and kind. She listens and she clearly has a deep understanding of the body and how to heal. I walked out of this incredibly cute, clean, and warm/homey atmosphere feeling like a different person. What would we do without our healers? Thank you so much Thalia 😁

Thalia is an excellent massage therapist! One of the best messages I have ever had, and I’ve had massages to compare it too. The atmosphere was relaxing and she focused on all my pain points. When she says she can do a deep tissue massage, she actually can! I felt very relaxed afterwards. I would highly recommend her if you need a great massage.

I have never had a better massage like the one Thalia gave me. Not only does she have great pressure, but she is such a sweetheart. Her space is cute and homey. It would be very tough to find someone that can beat this massage and comfortable environment. I Strongly recommend her! Especially for deep tissue.

At first I was reluctant to reach out, but then I decided to set up a consultation call. That decision ended up being one of the best things I've done for myself in a very long time

Maria is an amazing health coach! From the minute I met her I felt completely relaxed and understood. She totally got me. She uncovered old beliefs and allowed me to discover my hearts desires in a safe environment. This is because she is sweet, caring and smart. She also holds me accountable for my actions so I can reach my true desires in a gentle loving way. I highly recommend Maria.
