Ways we support a population
1. Your student has been injured, sick, bullied, or abused in some way and needs support.
- Wellness U gives students a place to go 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, to find evidenced backed resources specific to their needs to help navigate their emotions and get support right when needed, right where they are.
2. Your students have a big game, exam, or life concern and are anxious.
- Students turn to Wellness U for coping techniques, including mindfulness, meditation, and breathing exercises to relax and feel better in the moment while learning how to handle future situations more appropriately.
3. Your student needs to talk with someone but doesn't want to walk into the counseling office due to stigma, trust, cultural barriers, or other reasons.
- Wellness U allows a safe space for students to communicate their situations via messaging, video, or phone calls through our diverse platform of community resources and telehealth providers.
Ways we support leadership
1. A student has a problem but feels uncomfortable talking to someone, including staff and coaches. For many reasons, students do not speak out about what is happening inside them or situations within the environment.
- Wellness U provides anonymous reporting on topics such as overall well-being, including specific subjects such as safety within the community, inclusion & belonging, sleep, financial matters, leadership support, and more. These reports help guide leaders in the conversations they should have and be more proactive in the support they give their students and student-athletes.
2. Coaches, teachers, support staff, and most administrators are not trained in mental wellness support and sometimes have difficulty discussing mental health topics.
- Wellness U provides leadership with talking points and a process to discuss specific topics. Our platform makes these topics relevant to the student because anonymous reporting lets us know which issues are most viewed and searched.

Group Coaching
As a group speaker, I can help motivate teams to succeed. As the current CEO and Founder of Wellness U and the previous CEO of other ventures, I have helped motivate top talent.
My core belief is the need to embrace nervousness and apprehension in order to remove obstacles blocking success. Believing that reframing and a proper understanding of positive growth from adversity can lead to greater individual and team outcomes.
Personal Health & Wellness Coaching
I work with individuals, professionals, CEOs, and those stalled in their business, personal life, or health who want to thrive in life and their relationships. We achieve success working together, and uncovering new perspectives, so you can create the life you love. You can become your best self by developing a supportive environment, a positive mindset, and better exercise habits with positive and effective habit-changing techniques. Let's get to work!
Reflect on what's going on
Every person needs a safe place to examine their doubts, reconnect with their purpose, and confidently talk through problems. Topics include health & fitness, finances, business decisions, personal & family life, weight loss, and more.
Learn with someone who's been there
With over 15 years of experience, let me help you acquire new perspectives and skills to stay in control as your life and wellness improve. This is not therapy; this is life coaching. If you need to see a professional therapist, I can recommend some.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Wellness U app tracking about me?
The Wellness U app is 100% confidential, and we do not sell any anonymous data. The app does not track location or IP address nor ask for emails, telephone numbers, birthdates, or names. No personal information/assessment answers are traceable back to any user. Codes given by an organization can not be associated with a real person. The app stores assessment scores and content to access timestamps against an anonymous user ID and knows the history of the anonymous user ID but can not associate any data with a real person. For more information, please visit our Privacy Policy.
Do I have to log on with a code if I am part of an organization, and if I use the code, is it still anonymous?
Users log in confidentially, even with a code provided to them by an organization. The code is used to utilize specific help resources within the Wellness U app and help understand the culture within a community.
Is there a cost for the Wellness U app?
There is no cost to an individual. It is free to download from the Apple app store and Google Play store. The organization has taken on the cost of the wellness platform.
Has the methodology in the Wellness U app been researched?
Clinically tested methods and backed by research from the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, Kenneth Yeager, Ph.D., L.I.S.W. developed the methods used in the app. The research and testing found that the Wellness U training method for vicarious trauma decreased burnout measures sustained for several months. The Wellness U app uses a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy and cognitive processing therapy techniques. These approaches help to address common effects of exposure to trauma; these include but are not limited to hyper-vigilance avoidance, trust, control, and intimacy (sharing and processing exposure to a trauma with others). As the stress responses progress, individuals become at greater risk of depression, anxiety, substance misuse, sleep disturbance, and unexplained anger, to name a few. The app provides an effective way to understand how to manage your response to stress and anxiety.
Is my fitness data in Optimum U tied to the Wellness U app?
No. The two apps are entirely different and completely separate. The Optimum U Health Coaching app is provided to help those looking to increase their physical and mental health. We believe the two go together. - it is hard to be healthy in one without the other.

Case Study
"For [our students and student-athletes] to be able to use those resources and have something to fall back on when they needed it, whether we're going through a good stretch or a bad stretch, was something that really helped us out."
"I really appreciate this. Great idea to add the video review the first time [we] see the numbers [on the reports]. Really helpful. I am happy with our numbers.
"I showed my Management Team this afternoon. We are floating some ideas about benefits and how we can better support Work/Life Balance."
"I just got done with the women's basketball team meeting. It was very well received! I'm pretty sure that we at least had 100% of the team load it, but wireless and Internet were sketchy in the room that we were in, so I encourage them to finish their assessment later. Some were doing it when I just left. One girl said, 'Remember when I told you yesterday that I was going to need therapy? Well, here's my therapy!' From GVU Student Success Coordinator) "Makes my heart smile!"
"...I'm proud of our University for bringing Wellness U to campus...This app gives us an opportunity to find self-help anonymously and comfortably...
Wellness U has given me an outlet and a safe place where I can find self-motivation when I am having tough days. It gives me the capability to remind myself of my self-worth and purpose that I have in this world...I believe that Wellness U will help myself and others students build a foundation of bettering their mental health and finding ground to seek additional help in the future."
