Lori Valenti Webb
Co-founder · Rolesville
Lori Valenti Webb has been an entrepreneur in the Wake Forest area for over 15 years. She got very ill in 2022 and became a patient in the current healthcare system. The system was harsh, hard to navigate and confusing — so, as a patient, she took matters into her own hands. Lori and Emily built a one-stop shop: a compilation of integrative, functional and holistic healthcare, including peptides, practitioners, a movement studio, wellness modalities, even skin care.
Lori has continued to recover on her journey, and Health House has been a big part of that wellness experience. She is approximately 75% better today, and the community they have built here has continued to push her forward.
One of her favourite things about owning multiple Health House locations is the community-style events she and Emily put together for residents of the area, and the education classes they run to keep people informed about current wellness and health modalities and the shifting science.
Emily Albers
Co-founder · Health House
Emily is a healthcare leader, entrepreneur, and co-founder of Health House, bringing more than 20 years of experience in nursing, healthcare leadership, and business operations to a new model of health and wellness.
After spending decades inside the traditional healthcare system, Emily became increasingly interested in a more comprehensive approach. One that looks beyond symptoms and gives people greater access to education, prevention, recovery, and whole-person wellness.
That vision helped shape Health House and, more recently, Health House: The Collaborative in Raleigh: a multidisciplinary wellness community designed to bring independent practitioners together so clients can access complementary expertise under one roof. Her focus is on building the systems, partnerships, services, and client experience that allow practitioners to collaborate rather than operate in isolation.
Emily is particularly passionate about bridging the gap between conventional healthcare and integrative wellness. She believes people deserve to better understand their health, know the options available to them, and have a team of professionals who communicate and look at the bigger picture.
As an entrepreneur and business owner, Emily brings a systems-driven approach to Health House, combining her clinical background with years of leadership, operations, and business development experience. Her goal is not simply to create another wellness space, but to help build a more connected and collaborative way for people to pursue better health.
