Bella Nieto
Counseling services in the state of Texas.
You deserve a joyful, authentic life — but trauma, stress, and the pressure to be perfect can make it feel impossible. I see you, and you don’t have to do it alone. As a proud Latina therapist, I offer a holistic, empathetic, and social-justice-oriented approach. Above all, I show up with authenticity, warmth, and compassion.
I support clients in reconnecting with themselves, building self-trust, and feeling at home in their bodies and lives. My specialties include athlete and runner performance, body image, generational trauma, perfectionism, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, work/life balance, relationships, and grief.

Coach Stephanie Kowal
Run Coaching
Location: Elkton, Maryland (accepts virtual)
Hi, I’m Stephanie - Running Coach, Endurance Enthusiast, and Trail Curious Explorer Roots and Roads was founded on a simple belief: running should be joyful, empowering, and accessible to everyone.
For me, it all began with a spontaneous half marathon that sparked a love of endurance, community, and the simple joy of showing up. Over the years, that spark has grown into a passion for helping runners fuel smarter, run stronger, and find confidence in every mile.
Today, as an RRCA Level 1 Certified Coach, 2x Marathoner, and 5x Half Marathon finisher, I specialize in guiding new runners, road racers leveling up, and trail-curious athletes who are ready to chase new goals.
