Dr. Maureen Michele, MD, is a compassionate and committed professional who has devoted herself to assisting parents in navigating the unique challenges of raising children with issues. She is both a pediatrician and an immunologist, and she has not only provided care for children with chronic health issues but also went the extra mile to support their parents throughout their individual experiences.
Her life serves as a powerful example of what can be accomplished when one is determined and believes in one’s aspirations. Since she was young, Dr. Maureen had two strong dreams: to become a pediatrician and to experience the bliss of being a mother. She graduated from medical school carrying her first child, proving that dedication can lead to success in two fields at once. At this moment, an incredible adventure began, bringing both immense joy and unexpected challenges.
Over the years, Dr. Maureen was fortunate enough to welcome two more wonderful children into her life. Each child brought their own unique set of challenges, adding to the richness and complexity of Dr. Maureen’s journey. But, in the midst of the happiness that comes with being a mother, life threw her into a difficult situation when her baby daughter was diagnosed with neuroblastoma while she was working as a pediatric resident. All of a sudden, her life was flooded with surgeries, chemotherapy, and the immense weight of taking care of a sick child.
In the midst of all the stress and chaos that comes with parenting a child facing medical challenges, Dr. Maureen discovered that she was completely absorbed by the demands of being a mother. As her journey continued, things became even more complicated. Her daughter was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, and on top of that, her other children were dealing with mental health issues. All of these challenges added more layers of difficulty to her life.
But as they say, “every cloud has a silver lining,” and for Dr. Maureen, that silver lining was coaching. She found out about the incredible impact of life coaching, which gave her valuable tools to handle life’s challenges with enthusiasm, serenity, and happiness. She discovered a fresh desire to help other parents going through the same things that she had.
Dr. Maureen understood how important a parent’s well-being is for a child’s health, so she decided to become a certified life coach. With her coaching skills, she assists parents of children facing medical challenges in reclaiming their lives and discovering how to thrive despite the obstacles they encounter.
Incredible resilience, compassion, and a strong dedication to making a positive impact on the lives of parents and their children is what Dr. Maureen Michele stands for. She has a genuine love for helping people, so she is excited to join you on your journey towards a more fulfilling and joyful life.
