I’m Thea. I’m here to support your journey to health in a way that our healthcare system alone cannot.
I see you…
… asking why and searching for answers about your condition.
… tired, foggy, and achy.. scared of the next symptom that may pop up.
… searching for someone who will listen to your unique story.
… overwhelmed with health information and unsure where to even start.
… feeling sick and tired of being sick and tired.
… hoping and knowing deep down that there MUST be something else you can do.
There is a better way…

Vision
The vision of Veza Wellness is to transform the way people view health - from a mindset of falling victim to poor health and treating illness after it occurs to a hopeful & empowered mindset of taking control over our health and intentionally creating vitality & longevity for ourselves and our family. Veza Wellness envisions a future in which the common standard is for every individual and family to have an integrative health coach in addition to their primary care physician that is easily accessible to them for health & lifestyle education and to help them take charge of their own health.
Hi there!
I’m Thea Banjac (Lucas), the founder, owner, and sole Integrative Health Practitioner (IHP) here at Veza Wellness. I am a Level 2 certified Integrative Health Practitioner through the Integrative Health Practitioner Institute. I have a BS in Athletic Training from the University of Pittsburgh, and a Masters in Sport Management from Florida State University. I started my career as an athletic trainer, which allowed me to combine my love for sports with a career in medicine. I had a blast working with athletes at the University of Pittsburgh (H2P!), Florida State University (Go Noles!), and William & Mary (Go Tribe!), but my yearning to help people on an even deeper level led me to create Veza Wellness! Now, I get to combine 2 of my greatest values, health & family, into my work by helping individuals & families get well and build what I call “generational health.” My goal is to make it easier for our children and those who come after us to live with health & vitality – it starts now and it starts with each of us!
I am an Orthodox Christian, and those values guide me in life, in business, and in coaching! I absolutely love spending time with my friends & family, reading, watching sports (football, basketball, & tennis mostly), dancing, and trying out new recipes. One of my current, and most important, goals is to become fluent in Serbian (“veza” is actually a Serbian word!). I recently moved back to my hometown of Pittsburgh, PA with my husband, Luka. See my blog posts for more in depth info about me and my background! I can’t wait to work with you!
Why
The heart of Veza Wellness is rooted in its values of honesty, trust, humility, kindness, and compassion and is driven by its “why,” which is to make it easier for the next generation to live with health and vitality by helping families & individuals build generational health. Veza Wellness strives to help individuals and families create and build upon a strong foundation of health and wellness that can be passed down & allow their family to flourish for generations to come. It starts now and it starts with each of us!
