Susan Taylor, CHC, MBEC, CMWC

Susan Taylor specializes in holistic mind-body wellness coaching with 14 years of experience in private practice. Disordered eating, life transitions, and grief / resiliency are particular areas of focus.

Havening Techniques® is one of the tools for supporting holistic health that she utilizes in her work with clients. In working through her own traumatic experiences using havening, she experienced a new level of freedom and release. Since oftentimes trauma (big “T” and little “t”) is at the root of disordered eating, life transitions and loss,  Susan offers Havening Techniques® as part of her coaching practice.

Both Susan’s professional and personal life have shaped her heart-centered, compassionate approach to coaching. She began her career in the corporate world, later spending time as a teacher. When her son began suffering from an auto-immune condition, she immersed herself in functional nutrition and holistic health. After a major life transition after loss, she decided to pursue coaching full-time and established a private practice.

Susan received her initial training at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition in New York City and is a Certified Health Coach by both the American Association of Drugless Practitioners and the MacDonald Center for Obesity Prevention & Education at Villanova University College of Nursing. She is certified as a Mind-Body Eating Coach by the Institute for the Psychology of Eating. Additionally, Susan is trained in Dr. McCubbery’s Eating Disorder Intuitive Therapy (EDIT) and is certified as an Eating Disorder Recovery Coach, and a Certified Mental Wellness Coach through Marietta College. She holds a B.S. in Psychology from St. Lawrence University and an M.B.A. from New York University.

Along with her private practice (via Zoom), Susan also teaches and coaches at Structure House, a holistic residential weight loss center in Durham, NC.
