Health Coaching — Change for the Good

Coaching is a growth-promoting relationship which elicits motivation, increases the capacity to change, and facilitates a change process through visioning, goal-setting, and accountability which leads to sustainable change for the good. ~ Wellcoaches®

The best-laid plans. Have you ever tried to create new habits – and failed? I have.

I’ve encountered several personal health obstacles over the years, including a recent cancer diagnosis. I work with a super knowledgeable team: functional medicine naturopath, holistic dentist, endocrinologist, and oncologist. I’m well-educated about health and do my research. So I’ve had no shortage of ideas on how to take care of myself. But the best-laid plans…

How do you create and maintain lifestyle changes and habits? I’ve discovered the secret – a coach! It’s made such a difference. And inspired me to become a Certified Wellcoach®. Ready to help you grow and thrive!

Coaches aren’t advice givers; they’re change agents. Catalysts for change in others. Here’s a short animated explanation of how coaching works:

Health coaches study the science of happiness and well-being to help you:

• Uncover your innate desire for wellness
• Discover your unique strengths and values
• Set realistic, achievable goals
• Overcome obstacles in your own way
• Build confidence in a supportive environment that fosters success

By:

• Actively listening to you and your stories.
• Nurturing self-acceptance and self-respect.
• Engaging, energizing, and encouraging you.
• Celebrating your successes

What does the process of wellness coaching involve?

• Advance assessments. To inform your coach about your specific concerns and health status.
• An initial 60-90 minute session. To identify priorities and design your personal wellness vision, three-month goals, and first steps.
• Subsequent 30-40 minute sessions – weekly, monthly, or quarterly. To review your progress, explore learning, develop strategies for success, and set goals for the following session.
