Marisa Caffrey, PhD is a board certified Health and Wellness Coach and a clinical psychologist. She received her certification in Health and Wellness Coaching through the Osher Center for Integrative Medicine at Vanderbilt University. Her Health and Wellness coaching career is built on 12 years of experience as a clinical psychologist and many years of life experience while raising 4 children and frequently moving with her husband during his military service. She is certified through the National Board for Health & Wellness Coaching .
Marisa was raised in a small village in Northern Italy in a large family where home cooked meals, constant contact with nature and a deep connection with her community were the norm.
For Marisa health is not just the absence of disease but a holistic, integrated wellness of mind, body, emotions and spirit. Her gentleness and genuine compassion for others combined with her extensive clinical training make Marisa’s coaching experience distinctive.
Marisa has many things that bring her joy: her children’s poems and paintings, hiking in the mountains of Northern Italy with her family, and cooking healthy meals. She also enjoys the scent of roses and lavender in her garden, a little bite of dark chocolate and the visual arts.
Marisa lives in San Antonio, TX with her husband, a family physician, and their 17 year old son.
