Sensory wellness coaching and chocolate experiences for individuals and teams ready to thrive.

Kalei Ross, PsyD

About

I’m Dr. Kalei Ross—a mental health practitioner turned Sensory Wellness Coach, Chocolate Educator, and author of the Gourmand Award–winning book In Pursuit of Purity, The Paris Chocolate Files. With a doctorate in Clinical Psychology and more than 20 years of experience in clinical and neuropsychology, I’ve discovered the transformative power of engaging the senses to regulate stress, restore calm, and savor life more fully—one bite of chocolate at a time.

Today, as a wife, mother, and devoted servant of the Lord, I blend brain science with hands‑on practices—like focused chocolate tasting, aromatic wellness routines, and textured grounding exercises—in both my personal life and coaching practice. Through my signature Chocolate Connection Experiences, I help chocolate makers and teams harness sensory power to create richer products and stronger communities. My Sensory Wellness Coaching Services—rooted in neuroplasticity and practical sensory exercises—empower individuals and groups to de-stress, reconnect with their full potential, and transform everyday moments into pathways for lasting well‑being and connection.
