Certified Health & Wellness Coach

Brook Gullickson’s journey in health and wellness is rooted in both passion and life experience. While earning her degree in Sports Medicine, Brook competed as a collegiate swimmer, developing a firsthand understanding of what the human body demands at peak performance. She met her husband Nick while working as a student athletic trainer covering collegiate baseball. They married a year prior to graduation and, shortly after, Brook was involved in a not-at-fault head-on car accident where the driver crossed over the double yellow lines into her lane. She was thankful to survive such a serious accident and had to overcome her own injuries with many months of physical therapy, in hopes of returning to her last year of swimming.

Shortly after graduation, they moved to Port Orchard. For over 17 years, Brook worked in a physical therapy clinic as a Licensed and Certified Athletic Trainer, helping individuals recover, rebuild and regain strength after surgery or injury. She later went on to become an independent contractor for the local Y, offering personal training, nutrition guidance, and health and wellness coaching.

BEYOND WORK LIFE

When Brook is not with clients, working out, or continuing her research, she enjoys life to the fullest. She and her husband love to travel and have been long-time enthusiasts of Cabo and Disney World. They could easily double as tour guides for both!

Closer to home, they enjoy live music and concerts throughout the Pacific Northwest and going to Mariners games.
