Aligning Mindset, Heartset and Soulset

Heather Dempsey
Founder of The Self-Care Center | Holistic Spa Visionary & Therapeutic Coach

Heather Dempsey is the visionary force behind The Self-Care Center in Venice, Florida, where she combines decades of expertise in advanced esthetics, therapeutic coaching, and energy healing to create a haven for emotional and physical transformation.

With a career that includes owning the #1 day spa in the greater Philadelphia region for over a decade and leading a team of 27 employees, Heather has redefined what it means to provide exceptional care in the wellness industry.

Known for her ability to make deep emotional work feel approachable and even fun, Heather offers a unique alternative to traditional talk therapy.  Her trauma-informed, integrative approach focuses on helping clients release emotional blocks, cultivate self-compassion, and discover lasting balance.

By blending inner work with techniques that are empowering and lighthearted, she ensures her clients feel supported every step of the way—without the overwhelm often associated with personal growth.

With nearly 100 certifications—including Trauma-Informed Coaching, Somatic EMDR, Advanced Spa Therapies, and Crystal Healing—Heather has developed a truly holistic philosophy that considers every aspect of her clients’ well-being.

Whether through one-on-one coaching sessions, sound therapy, or customized spa treatments designed to rejuvenate the body and mind, she creates personalized experiences that inspire lasting change.

As a passionate advocate for self-care, Heather’s work is grounded in her belief that wellness is more than relaxation—it’s about growth, transformation, and stepping into one’s fullest potential.

Her leadership, authenticity, and commitment to creating a nurturing, nonjudgmental space have made The Self-Care Center a trusted sanctuary for those seeking an elevated approach to wellness.

With a legacy of excellence in the wellness industry and a reputation for her innovative, compassionate approach, Heather is dedicated to empowering individuals to prioritize their well-being and create meaningful, lasting shifts in their lives.
