Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Holistic Health Coach?
A Certified Holistic Health coach is made up of two certifications, Certified Health and Wellness Coach and Certified Holistic Nutritionist. My goal is to educate and work alongside my clients, to help reach and sustain their optimum health.
The Health and Wellness approach to health emphasizes prevention of disease and injury, self-responsibility for nutrition, exercise and other aspects of lifestyle that promotes wellness.
A Holistic Nutritionist guides a client toward a healthy nutritional lifestyle by meeting nutritional needs and solving problems that are barriers to change.
Why work with a health coach?
Studies have shown that long term lifestyle changes are 80% more likely to be reached when working with a Certified Health Coach. Coaching inspires, empowers, encourages, supports, and enables people to find their own answers on their path of making important lifestyle choices.
What are the benefits of individual coaching?
One on one coaching is beneficial in many aspects. A client may feel free to discuss, with a trusted coach, subjects they would not be comfortable discussing in a group setting. All goals, plans and discussed subjects will be based solely on their needs.
