Other Practitioners
Cat can’t do it all. Nor should she. There are a myriad of specialties, schoolings, practices, and talents out there. Here are the doctors or practitioners or SME’s (subject matter experts) that Cat recommends. She has had personal experience with each. Note, there are not many on this list. These people stood out amongst the rest Cat has met in her Life and have become specifically useful to her and her Clients. The list is in no particular rated order. Note that there are no primary care doctors on this list. As a result, few of these pros take insurance. They are solo practitioners. It is Cat’s personal experience and professional opinion that the following quote is true ::
“If you do not invest in your Wellness now, you will be forced to for your Illness later.”
There is no better time than now to focus on your happiest, healthiest Self.
This Life is not a rehearsal. Please, care for You. You Matter.
Doctor Recommendation ::
Dr. Richard Nuzzi and his Wife, Stephanie
https://www.DrNuzzi.com
In 2018 Cat couldn’t walk. Five hospitals in two different states in two months could not figure out what was happening. Bloodwork was ‘fine’, no sudden injuries had occurred, no dramatic Life change could be figured… Then, a friend of hers said, “I’m going to send you to my Chinese WooWoo Doctor.” Dr. Nuzzi was understood at the time as a chiropractor that was infamous for many healing stories over almost a half a century. He had been a part of Cat’s friend healing from cancer, and Cat was going to try anything. Dr. Nuzzi spent almost three hours with Cat. No invasive testing, no needles, no bloodwork, just hands-on pressure testing (you’ll find out all about it if you see him) and a bunch of questions for her to answer. She walked away with a list of what to eat and what not to eat anymore (at least for now, he said) and three Chinese medicines
to take for only three months. He said, “please, either do everything I’m saying or just do none of it.” She took his advice. She was healed long before the three months had passed. Dr. Nuzzi has many decades of case studies roaming the World happy and healthy today. His Wife, Stephanie, is a remarkable Nutritionist and very accessible to Clients when needed. Their power duo is a blessing to this Earth.
Certified Addiction Specialist and Licensed Clinical Social Worker::
Belina Fruitman; LCSW, CAS
https://www.YourWayToRecovery.com
https://www.YourIntervention.com
https://www.AWomansWayToRecovery.com
Belina was Cat’s first counselor in Colorado. She spent roughly 8 years seeing Belina through Belina’s women’s groups, personal counseling via in-person, and phone counseling. Sometimes as often as twice a week. It took Cat a couple of years to finally open up to the trauma she had experienced in Life and admit to the PTSD she was actively and strongly experiencing, but Belina was patient and comforting and was able to pull Cat through her life experiences into a stronger sense of Self activation and power. Belina was one of only a few close people in Cat’s life that saw the reasons behind Cat’s struggles with alcohol and was there to help Cat through and beyond it all with compassion, knowledge, massive credibility, and a deep sense of relating to Cat’s spirituality. In one of Cat’s podcast episodes on PepTalks.Live, she mentions how adaptable Belina is to every Client and situation Belina encounters in her professional career. If you or a loved one are struggling, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Belina via one of her websites so that you can begin on your “Healing Plan.”
Brain Spotting & Family Therapy ::
Michael Vladeck; Brain Spotting Counselor
https://www.MichaelVladeck.com
Cat found Michael because she was searching for a grief counselor for her then-pre-teen son Sage when he moved to Colorado after his dad’s passing. Michael was recommended as “the best teen counselor there is” and an “EMDR” therapist, which is what Cat kept hearing would be “the thing” Sage needed, considering traditional counseling had not worked for Sage. After some time, Cat learned it would be beneficial to involve herself in the counseling sessions, and then to also involve Sage’s step-dad. Between individual counseling for Sage, family counseling, and brain spotting sessions, Michael was able to uncover Sage’s deep traumas and help to re-route Sage’s thinking. Michael was also able to discover patterns both with Sage and his attachment to his past as well as inside of the new family dynamic that weren’t working - and help them. It’s common that a counselor, after many sessions, may find patterns; however, Michael’s ability to “see” each individual and their storyline, help everyone to
maintain radical responsibility for their part or role, and instill new patterns and/or methods of change for the bettering of everyone is what makes his counseling effective for extremely challenging situations.
Post-Natal/Pre-Natal Yogini and Sound Healer ::
Maquetha Lester; CMT, RYT, Sound Healer, Ayurvedic Chef & Practitioner
https://www.TheLandOfM.com
Maquetha and Cat started as instant friends in a modeling group back in 2015. Both experienced their own journeys over the following several years and came back together as friends on their true paths of healing Others. Joining forces, they began a meditation group that met via Zoom weekly, then created a women’s retreat, and will soon be hosting more. Maquetha is a gentle-hearted teacher of yoga and meditation as well as a provider to women in any of the three trimesters of pregnancy. She has a deep knowledge of sound, frequency, and the
healing it can provide and Cat’s personal experience is that Maquetha has a knack for being “in the NOW” and focusing on the actual, present needs of Others. Her hands on healing, sound healing, and meditations have shown to leave people feeling sound at heart, lowered anxiety, and inner peace. If you’re looking for nurturing energy with a strong meditation and yoga background, please reach out to her.
Gonstead Method Chiropractor ::
Dr. Colton, Chiropractor
https://www.ConciseChiropractic.com
“Hiring a chiropractor who doesn’t at least want to see an updated X-ray is like hiring a sniper and then blindfolding them.” -Famous quote by Cat. She strongly believes that if you do feel the need to go to a chiropractor, you should make absolutely sure that they at least want to see an updated X-ray. These guys, specifically Dr. Colton who she’s had work on her, are awesome. They start with an X-ray, of which they have their own machine, in-office. Then what’s neat about the “Gonstead Method” is that there is a device used to sense heat from nerve-endings, helping to pinpoint exact locations of the ultra-problematic areas. Why does that matter? Just because “I know my L4 is the problem!” does not mean that that exact vertebrae is precisely where to approach. You do not want to become one of those malpractice cases, so you do want to hire the people who are precise and regularly review what they’re looking at and working on. Want to know more? Ask the doctors! Dr. Colton is particularly educated and willing to chat with his Clients.
