Marie Pangilinan

Marie Pangilinan is a National Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach who believes that meaningful change begins with learning to appreciate and care for yourself as you are today. She offers a compassionate, nonjudgmental approach that supports positive body image, self-confidence, and self-care throughout the weight-management journey. As a Licensed Massage Therapist and Licensed Esthetician—a professional skin care specialist—Marie brings a holistic understanding of how stress, physical comfort, skin health, and emotional well-being can all affect the way a person feels in their body. She also holds a doctorate focused on health psychology research and uses evidence-based behavior-change strategies to help patients create realistic, sustainable habits. Marie understands that weight management involves much more than a number on the scale. Sleep, stress, eating patterns, movement, cravings, mindset, confidence, and daily routines can all influence progress and overall well-being. Her coaching style is warm, collaborative, and personalized. Using motivational interviewing, active listening, mindfulness, and achievable goal-setting, Marie helps patients recognize their strengths, work through barriers, and develop habits that fit their lives. Patients remain in control of their goals while she provides encouragement, accountability, and support. Marie is especially interested in weight management, stress reduction, restorative sleep, hydration, movement, general nutrition habits, emotional eating, positive body image, healthy aging, skin-supportive self-care, and helping patients feel better from the inside out. Whether a patient is beginning a weight-loss journey, rebuilding consistency after a setback, managing cravings, improving energy, or simply wanting to feel healthier and more confident, Marie helps turn personal goals into small, meaningful steps that support lasting progress.
