What is health coaching?

 Health coaching is a supportive, confidential partnership between an individual working toward wellness goals and a professional trained to assist them. Your health coach can encourage and motivate you to change behaviors that have blocked you from good health and/or simply mentor you toward well-being.

Six scenarios when health coaching can change the game for you:

  • Illustration of a foot in a sneaker

    You know what to do to make yourself feel better and healthier but you can’t seem to take action.

  • Silhouette of a head with a lotus flower inside, symbolizing mindfulness or meditation.

    You feel stressed and exhausted much of the time and just want your life back.




  • Illustration of a stethoscope with a heart-shaped chest piece

    Your doctor gave you a treatment plan that includes lifestyle and/or dietary changes but you don’t know where to start.

  • Silhouette of person meditating with lotus flower background

    You’ve lost the energy to live the way you want and crave feeling good and energetic again.

  • Illustration of two hands holding a purple heart.

    You want to prevent future illness for your own good and/or the good of your family but you feel overwhelmed.


  • Fitness

    
You can’t find the motivation, time and/or resolve to make changes that would improve your health.

Let’s find your unique path to
optimal wellness.

As a health coach, I help people connect their life experience to wellness of mind, body and spirit. Functional medicine is centered around you, the patient. Together, we uncover the root causes of your imbalance. Once these are discovered, often the first step toward healing involves changing your lifestyle and/or behaviors. Even simple shifts can bring powerful transformation – I’ve seen it in my clients and experienced it myself.

How is this different from traditional medicine? Usually doctors in the United States treat the symptoms of illness, frequently using drugs to mask them. While functional medication may also include medication and other supplements, they’re used to treat the underlying sources of your health concerns, not just the symptoms.

Because my practice is person-centered and focused on your body, you’re the expert. After all, you know your body better than anyone. You and I work as partners in restoring your whole self to optimal vitality.

For my part, I actively observe and listen to every aspect of you – physical, intellectual, emotional, energetic and spiritual – to help you clarify your motivations and values. With this information, I support you through changes that make a lasting difference.

Change can be challenging, of course. But isn’t living with emotional and physical well-being worth it?
