Distinct Disciplines, Shared Standards
Head 2 Toe Strength brings together the work of Bethany Busch, MS, ACSM-EP, CSCS, founder, exercise physiologist and strength & conditioning specialist, and Auria Zahed, LMFT, licensed marriage and family therapist. Their disciplines are different. Their shared standard is individualized, affirming care that treats the person in front of them as more than a symptom, diagnosis or body.
Two Credentialed Professionals.

Auria Zahed, MS, LMFT
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist | Psychotherapist
Auria Zahed provides licensed psychotherapy focused on mental and emotional health, including identity, boundaries, relationships, burnout and difficult lived experiences. Her work creates space for clients to understand themselves without shame, judgment or pressure to perform wellness.
Why Cookie-Cutter Care Falls Short
Standardized care can work well for many people. It can also leave important context out.
Head 2 Toe Strength was built for people who want more time, more individualization and more attention to the person behind the program or treatment plan.
That is especially important for people who have previously felt dismissed, judged, stereotyped or out of place in healthcare, therapy, sport or fitness environments.
