Danielle Leclair

I've worked in the field of wellness for more than 15 years. My journey began as an athlete and since then I've worked as a weight loss coach, food and nutrition specialist, Reiki Practitioner, fitness and spin instructor, meditation teacher, and now a TCM Practitioner and Deep Transformational Coach.

TCM has transformed my approach to health and happiness.

Over that time I've observed an evolution in my definition of what health and happiness really mean. Throughout my journey, regardless of what I was doing, I’ve always felt uplifted and grateful when able to help people help themselves.

I attended the International College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Vancouver from 2011-2015, and during that time completed a TCM internship at Tzu Chi Hospital in Taiwan. Studying TCM was a transformative experience in my approach to health and happiness, it helped me develop a fundamental respect for balance.  

Traditional Chinese Medicine has led me to understand that we can achieve our optimal state when we respect the balance in every aspect of our lives: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.  I specialize in looking at the mind-body connection and believe our thoughts and emotions contribute to how our body feels and performs.

Balance in every aspect of our lives: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.

There is no quick fix to health and life satisfaction however, there is simplicity. I love to work with people who understand that they themselves play the most important part in their healing. Stepping into coaching has been a natural progression for me. My desire to be a Life Coach was around even before I know about Chinese Medicine. Throughout my TCM career I have gone deeper with my patients than a regular Acupuncturist might normally do. I have an insatiable desire to discover what makes someone tick, and how they can grow to trust and love themselves like never before. Deep Transformational Coaching was the first coaching program that really I really connected with. Even though I appreciate traditional coaching methods with objectives and goal setting, taking it many steps further and creating an environment in which my clients can truly discover the truth of who they are has been a true joy.
