I’m Carissa, Founder and Head Coach at Creative Wholistics.
As a an online Holistic Health Coach, I have the privilege of working with people from all over the world to help them ditch the all-or-nothing mentality and better understand their bodies so they can reach their goals and thrive in their lives.
After struggling with my own set of health challenges including bloat, unbearable stomach pain, IBS, painful and irregular periods, and the emotional roller coaster between anxiety and depression for the majority of my life, I was tired; tired of going from doctor to doctor feeling totally unseen and not getting answers; tired of feeling misunderstood and unheard by family and friends; tired of feeling self-conscious, unworthy, purposeless, uncomfortable in my body, and tired of holding myself back from my dreams.
I started studying alternative and holistic health practices in search of easing the physical discomfort, and ended up changing the trajectory of my entire life.
CERTIFICATIONS
In addition to my certifications in Functional Nutrition, Plant Based Nutrition, Personal Training, and Zumba, I am also certified in Trauma-Informed Coaching, Inner Child Healing, Life Coaching, Mindfulness, EFT, NLP, and Reiki.
Through the holistic approach, I was able to find answers to my struggles and I finally felt understood. By applying these practices, I found hope, energy, self-love, confidence, and the freedom to express myself. I found resilience, fearlessness, and alignment. I felt whole. The Creative Wholistics online platform was born and
Â

Testimonials
“Carissa’s knowledge, warmth and kindness make you feel comfortable from the get go and she provides you with tools and tips to help you straight away! Carissa mapped out all of my symptoms and helped me see I need to look at my health holistically in areas of my life I hadn’t even considered.
I can’t recommend this session enough, what you will find out about your own body will amaze you!”
Helen
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
“I'd been through a very stressful couple of months & my energy was lower than it'd ever been. through my assessment forms & our conversation, Carissa helped me hone in on what specifically was causing my low energy. She coached me to find what aspects of my routine & diet I could adjust in a favorable direction & helped me make simple, achievable goals. It's been about 2 weeks since my session & my energy is basically back to better than it was even a year or so ago. Not only did it bounce back from recent stress, but seems to have healed even more subtle dis-ease that I'd been putting up with for much longer.
Health and energy are precious & priceless!! Carissa's outside set of professional eyes were so necessary in getting me back to this optimal state.”

“I am forever grateful to have had such a wonderfully skilled coach as Carissa. Her gentle yet intuitive approach encourages me to meet myself exactly where I am in the moment, which allows for expansion in so many areas of my life.
I have transformed into such an authentic and confident person since working with Carissa and I can't praise her skills enough! Thank you for all the love and kindness you have shown that is possible, I can’t wait to work together again in the future!!”
Bailey

“It takes a lot for me to open up and let my guard down but Carissa holds space for you in a way that you are willing to break down those walls to get to the root of what's really going on because ultimately that's where the change needs to occur. Underneath. To have Carissa in your corner holding you accountable while also gently guiding you to the power you already have within you is transformational. Her knowledge of nutrition and the body/mind connection just adds to the repertoire of powerful coaching she provides.
If you've been eyeing Carissa as a coach then trust your gut (no pun intended) and go for it.”
Alyson

“Working with Carissa helped to give me a head start on the healthy lifestyle I've been trying to obtain for years.
As a fussy eater I always found it hard to enjoy veggies but since using the recipes from my plan I have found that not only am I finishing my veg but I'm enjoying it!! My favourite part about the process was Carissa's positive energy throughout every phone call, thank you for everything, you have helped me take a big step forward in breaking down my eating habits and helping me transition to a healthier lifestyle!”
