Dee Whitaker · Emotional Wellness Coach
Your body feels what
your mind is carrying.
I’m Dee Whitaker, a Christian mental and emotional wellness coach. For 12 years, I’ve helped people navigate difficult seasons of life, understand the thoughts and emotions affecting them, and discover practical ways to move forward.
My approach combines emotional wellness coaching, established neuroscience-based techniques, and practical tools to help you recognize unhelpful thought patterns, work through and release difficult emotions, and develop a calmer, healthier response to life’s challenges.
This isn’t simply about talking through your problems. It’s about learning practical skills you can use in the moments when you need them most.

Understanding the connection between your thoughts, emotions, and body.
Have you ever noticed how a frightening thought can make your heart race? How worry can tighten your jaw, tense your muscles, or make it difficult to relax? Our thoughts influence our emotions, and our emotions are connected to our body’s stress response. When stress continues, it can affect our physical and emotional well-being. Explore where each emotion tends to settle below — and what your body may be asking you to hear.
Grief & Sorrow
what wasn't said, what was lost
Grief tends to settle around the breath. When we hold back tears, we hold back air — and the chest grows tight, shallow, guarded.
What it can show up as
What grief have you been too strong to feel?
Cancer and other diseases are complex medical conditions. My work is helping you understand your thought patterns, process difficult emotions, and develop practical ways to manage stress while navigating the challenges you’re facing. Your medical care is essential. Your mental and emotional care matter, too.
Recognize yourself above? That’s where we begin.

Have you ever wondered why you think, feel, and behave the way you do — or why the people closest to you seem to see the world so differently? Through personality typing, I help you discover the motivations behind your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
You’ll gain a better understanding of yourself and learn to better understand your spouse, children, friends, and family members. This insight can transform relationships, improve communication, and even help you understand how to parent children whose personalities are very different from your own.
And because personality typing can be done with the entire family, it opens the door to greater understanding, patience, and connection at home.
A renewed mind changes how you experience life.
Our thoughts have an incredible influence on how we feel, how we respond to life’s challenges, and how we experience our relationships. Yet most of us have never been taught how to recognize or work through unhelpful thinking patterns.
Through my Renewed Mind Program, I’ll teach you how to slow down your thinking, recognize the assumptions and beliefs that may be creating unnecessary stress, separate facts from fear, and look at situations with greater curiosity, clarity, and compassion.
Rather than automatically believing every thought that enters your mind, you’ll learn to challenge what isn’t helpful and develop a healthier, more peaceful way of thinking — moving from judgment to grace, and discovering how a renewed mind can change the way you experience life.
Practical skills for the moments that matter most.
Together, we’ll explore the thoughts, beliefs, and emotional patterns that may be contributing to your distress.
You’ll learn practical ways to recognize when your mind is working against you, distinguish facts from assumptions, work through difficult feelings and release them (rather than suppressing them), and calm your body’s stress response.
We’ll practice these tools together so you can begin using them in your everyday life — including those difficult moments when fear, worry, or overwhelming emotions seem to take over.
My goal is to help you experience greater calm, clarity, and confidence as you navigate your circumstances.
