Meet Katie Ozimek
Certified Functional Medicine Health Coach
I grew up outside of Chicago but the mountains were always calling. I moved to Colorado to attend the University of Denver 22 years ago and I have never looked back. I found my way into functional medicine after being diagnosed with Celiac disease and not being able to find any answers about why I was feeling so poorly. I turned to Dr. Jacqui and she inspired me to be a better person while helping me figure out my own health situation. Functional medicine took the blinders off for me and I hope I can do that for others.
Since my celiac diagnosis and change in my diet I have started a small business selling healthy gluten free granola and brownies. I have also studied mindfulness and how important it is to be present. As well, I have learned to dare greatly and face challenges head on. I would like to guide people through their challenges with empathy and warmth. I want to be available to people when it feels like no one else will even listen.
I have a lot of personal experience that I know would be very helpful to draw on while working with clients. I have a zest for learning new and improved ways to care for our bodies and change the way people live. I am a very motivated person and I feel that my energy and drive will help motivate others. I have a degree in communications which will help me to listen, really listen and to understand people’s fears, their challenges, their goals and their dreams.
When not working or studying you can find me in the kitchen cooking, gardening with my husband, watching my kids sports, skiing with my family, working out or on the tennis court. As well, my two kids and black lab keep me very busy.
Degrees and certifications:
- BA in Mass Communications/Human Communications
- Graduate of Functional Medicine Coaching Academy
