Health Coaching
We know a healthy life is often too hard to achieve alone. The constant battle for more time, motivation and balance can make you feel overwhelmed. Through ongoing conversations in person, on the phone or over email, a health coach can be your sounding board, helping you break through barriers that can interfere with your health and happiness.
An educated health coach will be a trusted confidant, helping you set goals, create action steps and advise you along the way. Like traditional coaching, health coaches utilize goal setting, identification of obstacles, and use of personal support systems. Together you and your health coach will discover your innate ability to ignite positive change in your own life.
Program Outline
Health coaching participants will undergo an initial consultation which will take approximately 30-45 minutes to complete. The initial consultation will be in-person and establish the participant’s goals, actions steps, barriers, and set a level of commitment to each goal on a 1-10 scale.
Weekly follow up sessions will then be conducted for 3 months and may be conducted in-person, on the phone, or through emails.
