What Clients Say
I have worked with Gemma for over three years. She helped me silence my inner critic and expect more for myself. Since then I have been promoted twice, I am doing work I love, and I am confident setting boundaries and saying no when I need to. Her insights have transformed the way I think. — KEH

My Journey to Happiness & Longevity
From a young age, I witnessed family members struggle with depression and the endless cycle of dieting. Those early experiences revealed something powerful to me: healthy living and happiness are deeply connected. I began to understand that feeling positive about oneself fuels a resilient mindset — one that supports not just success, but longevity.
My empathy for those navigating emotional struggles became a calling. I noticed I had a natural ability to “flip the script” on negativity — to find growth inside hardship. That gift shaped my mission: to help others transform challenges into strength and live with greater clarity, purpose, and joy.
In 2009, I turned that calling into action. After earning my certification in Holistic Nutrition from The American College of Healthcare Sciences, I opened my practice in Red Bank, New Jersey. My passion for learning led me to advanced certifications in Positive Psychology, Professional Coaching through the International Coaching Federation (PCC), National Board Certification in Health & Wellness Coaching, Cognitive Behavioral Coaching, and specialization in Lifestyle Medicine.
Inspired by this work, I authored The Positive Psychology Diet: 21 Days to a Happier and Healthier Life and Happiness Is My Choice, expanding my impact beyond individual coaching sessions to reach a wider audience.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of presenting at The Integrative Healthcare Symposium in New York, the Meridian Woman Rock Event, and The Lodge at Woodloch. Yet, of all my credentials, becoming a Positive Psychology Practitioner resonates most deeply. When I reflect on my own life challenges, I realize I was instinctively applying positive psychology principles long before I formally studied them.
Positive psychology — the science of human flourishing — shapes my coaching philosophy. It’s not just about overcoming obstacles. It’s about thriving. It’s about building sustainable habits that support happiness, health, and longevity.
Today, I combine health and life coaching with evidence-based positive psychology strategies to help my clients live not only longer, but fuller and more joyful lives.
