Ann Marie Ramsey Portrait

Welcome!
My name is
Ann-Marie Ramsey.

I am an Integrative Coach working with anyone committed to living their most authentic life.
As a trauma and breast cancer survivor, I have a special place in my heart and practice for people traversing those journeys.

Over 30 years ago, I experienced an unimaginable loss—my family was taken from me in a fire. It was the most painful, life-altering chapter of my life.

In 2018, I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer—an experience I believe was deeply connected to the unresolved trauma I carried for decades. As I moved through the intense and exhausting journey of treatment, I began to see the deep cracks in the medical system—particularly in how it often overlooks the emotional, mental, and spiritual dimensions of healing.

But in the midst of these challenges, I discovered something else: a deeper calling.

Through my own healing, I unearthed what I now see as gifts—insights and tools that helped me find a sense of clarity, resilience, and purpose. These insights became the foundation of my work as a coach.

I believe that when we begin to gently explore the patterns we’ve formed—especially those shaped by trauma, both “big” and “small”—we open the door to transformation. By recognizing and working with our limiting beliefs, overwhelming emotions, and reactive behaviors, we can create space for real healing and growth. These patterns, left unexamined, can contribute to everything from daily stress to chronic illness and dis-ease.

Today, I fulfill my heart’s purpose by guiding others through their own healing journeys. Through compassionate coaching, I help people reconnect with themselves, develop practical tools, and build the awareness needed to navigate life’s challenges with strength and grace.

My mission is to help you uncover the wisdom in your wounds—so you can live more fully, freely, and present in your life.

Kind Words From Clients

  • "I was completely shaken, scared and overwhelmed facing my breast cancer diagnosis and preparing for my approaching treatment. When I reached out to Ann-Marie, it was like finding a bright star in the darkness. Even though I had so much support and help from family members and friends, I found that it was difficult to discuss my diagnosis and treatment with someone who never had cancer. One thing that makes Ann-Marie’s services so valuable is that she is a cancer survivor herself."

    Olivia E., Breast Cancer Warrior

  • "Throughout our coaching sessions, Ann-Marie exhibited a deep understanding of my circumstance and created a safe and non-judgmental space where I felt comfortable sharing my thoughts and challenges. Working with her has been a game changer, and I’m grateful for the positive impact she’s had on my life. Thank you, Ann-Marie!"

    Karen B., Breast Cancer Warrior

  • "I was stuck in a cycle of deficit thinking, believing that sharing my narrative with one more person wasn’t going to help. Ann-Marie provided an attuned presence, a highly perceptive, insightful inquiry that revealed my strength, resourcefulness, and creativity. She guided me in the creation of a strategic action plan and from here I moved forward with clarity and confidence. This was truly a transformational experience which I highly recommend."

    G. Fehr, Professional in Education

  • "In addition to the knowledge, tools, and guidance Ann-Marie provided for me to better understand my diagnosis and how to navigate my upcoming treatment protocol, her coaching approach carried empathy and relatability in a way that helped me with the emotional support I needed. I was moved by her warmth, connection, compassion, and authenticity. Ann-Marie’s coaching helped shift my fear and despair to feeling hopeful, confident, resilient and empowered in my path towards wellness and recovery."
