Hope with Kelly is a trauma-informed holistic wellness practice founded by Kelly Dubowski, MSN, RN — a San Diego-based Holistic Nurse Coach, wellness advocate, and heart-centered healer. With a mission to help individuals and organizations break free from the cycles of burnout, stress, and emotional exhaustion, Kelly offers a sanctuary of support during life’s most tender transitions.
After years of working within the traditional healthcare system, Kelly witnessed how mental, emotional, and spiritual needs were often neglected or severely minimized. She felt a deep calling to reimagine the healing process — one that sees the person behind the symptoms. This led her to pursue advanced training, earning a Master of Science in Nursing with a specialization in Holistic Nurse Coaching, and becoming an active member of the American Holistic Nurses Association.
From that vision, Hope with Kelly was born — a practice that blends science and soul. Every offering is guided by compassion, connection, and the belief that healing begins when we feel safe, seen, and supported. Kelly’s approach is rooted in trauma-informed care and grounded in evidence-based mind-body practices. Her work integrates nervous system support, guided imagery, mindfulness, sound healing, and Reiki, creating an experience that nurtures the whole self — body, mind, and spirit.
Hope with Kelly serves both individuals and organizations, offering:
-
One-on-one Holistic Nurse Coaching for those navigating burnout, grief, trauma, or transitions
-
Restorative workshops and group coaching for schools, hospitals, and wellness-focused organizations
-
Healing-centered education and team support for spaces seeking to cultivate more mindful, resilient, and connected communities
Her practice is gentle but powerful. Clients are not “fixed” — they are guided home to themselves. Kelly holds space for deep inner work while empowering her clients to reconnect with their inner wisdom, build self-trust, and create sustainable practices for long-term well-being.
Kelly also leads Nurturing the Nurse, a heartfelt initiative designed to uplift nurses and nursing students through curated workshops, retreats, and community circles. This offering speaks to the soul of the caregiver — helping nurses move from burnout to renewal, while remembering why they began their path in the first place. It’s a space to exhale, to be held, and to feel inspired again.
Hope with Kelly is more than a wellness practice — it’s a movement. One that invites us to reclaim our wholeness in a world that too often teaches us to disconnect. Whether you are a nurse, a helping professional, a sensitive soul, or simply someone in need of support, you are welcome here.
