Amy Kurtz is the author of the trailblazing book Kicking Sick: Your GO TO GUIDE for Thriving with Chronic Health Conditions, a health and wellness coach, patient advocate, and speaker. Facing debilitating pain and health issues since her teenage years, patient advocate and author Amy Kurtz well knows the frustration, fear and isolation that comes with chronic illness.
Chronic Health Conditions – from Celiac Disease to major parasite infections to a thyroid condition– led Amy on an intense journey through doctors’ offices, medical clinics, IV labs, specialist offices and assorted spiritual communities. Through these experiences – the trials and the errors, Amy learned the importance of identifying her individual needs and putting a team together to support the whole of her body/mind/spirit. She became an active participant in her own health and got more involved, educated and invested in the healing process. She supports her clients in finding the right system so they can focus on healing instead of being mired in managing their care. Prior to starting her private practice, Amy built the health coaching program at The Morrison Center, a top integrative practice in NYC as a means of better supporting the patient by providing individualized guidance regarding their health condition and treatment plan.
