Pre-Conception Health Coaching & Perinatal Therapy
Hera's Essence LLC
About
My name is Kristi Howard and I am the proud owner of Hera's Essence LLC. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with 15 years of experience, and a newly Certified Health and Wellness Coach. I am very passionate about supporting women throughout all phases of pregnancy (Pre-conception, Pre & Postnatal).
The journey of pregnancy and motherhood varies from woman to woman. It can be the most amazing and rewarding time of your life but yet also the most trying and stressful. Planning and becoming pregnant, and then becoming a mom, can be very overwhelming and lonely. It can also be fun and exciting. This is all NORMAL!!!
After pregnancy losses, struggling to get pregnant and FINALLY having the opportunity to go through the UPS and DOWNS of motherhood, I became drawn to helping other women through their unique journey. As a Certified Health and Wellness Coach, I can support you during your Pre-Conception period.
In addition to Coaching, I offer therapy to women residing in NY during the Perinatal (Prenatal -1 year postnatal) period. Pregnancy and motherhood can be overwhelming, emotional, isolating and tough to navigate. You don’t have to go through it alone, I am here for you!
