In my professional journey, I’ve come to understand the challenges many face in accessing mental health services, influenced by a range of internal and external factors. Recognizing this, I’ve chosen to adopt a different approach, seeking out alternative avenues to provide additional support to those underserved by traditional channels. While not a substitute for therapy by any means (I want to be clear about that), I firmly believe that coaching, mentorship, and consulting can offer valuable assistance to individuals who may not require therapeutic intervention and whom may resonate with my journey. Thus, Mama Bear’s Path was born, with the aim of bridging this gap and offering meaningful guidance and support to those in need.

I’m deeply thankful for the opportunities life has presented me, and find genuine fulfillment in using my journey to positively impact others. My goal is to leave a lasting mark on my community by supporting fellow parents so they too can find joy in the journey of parenthood and assurance that they are never truly alone. To support parents facing challenges in achieving a “Healthy, Balanced and Successful Life” through “Self-Awareness, Self-Exploration” and careful “Strategical-Goal-Planning” that promotes both proven achievement and accountability to any goal they may want to set.

At Mama Bears Path, we understand the unique journey of our parents. Our agency is dedicated to providing coaching and consulting services tailored specifically to the needs of the Latinx community while simultaneously honoring, celebrating and respecting the diverse richness within our society. We believe that every parent deserves the support and guidance necessary to navigate the challenges of raising children in today’s world therefore we welcome all who may resonate with our agency’s mission.

Cordially, Heidy Umali ~*.
