I’m Chrissie Ott (she/her), a double-boarded internist and pediatrician with a passion for integrative medicine and coaching. With a background in nutrition, dance, and bodywork, I guide healthcare professionals and creatives to reclaim joy and purpose in their work and lives. I’ve led well-being initiatives in Oregon, navigated burnout in my own 20+ year career, and now I’m here to help you find clarity, inspiration, and playfulness on your journey. I'm married to the wonderful Su and proud parent to Isa Wren and three dogs.
If you’re feeling stuck, seeking a fulfilling life that supports you as you support others, or just need a fresh perspective, let’s connect!
Hi, welcome!
I Believe…
That we are here to connect, to heal, to grow, to create, and to serve…
In a lifelong process of becoming…
In speaking lovingly but clearly to ourselves and others…
In a mission of joyful service and creative response to whatever life brings…
What we heal in ourselves becomes our gifts to the world…
My work as a coach is to give people back to themselves so that they can give themselves to the world…
That connection mitigates trauma and that Presence is a prerequisite to connection…
In loving disruption of ALL hierarchical constructs…
In radical transparency…
In the gifts of imperfection…
In a life of Love and Purpose.

I want to share a few things about myself that might help answer questions you didn’t even know you had—like whether I truly understand suffering, if I can relate to your challenges, and if this space is trauma-informed.
As a cis-queer, middle-aged white woman with an advanced degree, who's fortunate to be socially and financially resourced, I understand why you might wonder. So, here’s the honest truth—down here where you’ll find it if you’re really looking.
Like you, I’ve walked through my own gauntlet, filled with both beautiful and challenging experiences that have left their marks and shaped who I am today. These experiences don't define me, but they do inform who I am and why I show up with what I’ve got to offer.
