---
I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist through the California Board of Behavioral Science.
Life is precious and flies by very quickly. I value making the most out of our lives, however I know difficulties arise and it’s not always easy to “live your best life”. I am an open-minded, non-judge mental, and empathetic therapist who works with clients to develop a plan to increase life happiness and fulfillment. I support my clients through active listening, problem solving, communication skills, coping skills, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I have worked extensively with couples experiencing infidelity issues, communication issues, and boundary issues. I enjoy working with individuals and children experiencing depression, anxiety, relational issues, and more.

Tawnie Pizarro
LIFE COACH CF-L-1, PN-1
Victorville
I have been a professional Life Coach in the health and fitness industry since 2013. I have experience as both a life coach and athlete in CrossFit, Powerlifting, Strongman, and Nutrition. Helping people has always been a passion of mine and health is a perfect foundation that is a part of everyone’s life. Whether you are looking to lose weight, gain muscle, create a healthy relationship with food, learn more about how your body functions or improve your overall physical and mental health. I strive to provide research-based, life-changing, personal nutrition and lifestyle coaching for everyone. Everything I do is designed to help people change their mindsets, behaviors, and lives. My coaching approach is not just a “feel-good” project. It is focused around “deep health” creating a hopeful, empowering vision of people’s potential for change and the most current scientific knowledge about health, fitness, nutrition, and behavior. Action creates change and change can be scary. That’s ok. I will help take you from goals to skills to practices to action.
