What is wellness coaching?

Coaching is a close partnership that provides structure, accountability, expertise and inspiration to encourage you to learn, grow, and develop beyond what you can do alone.  A coach works in the present, helping you define and create a new future.  Coaching helps you find new solutions to old problems, answers that work for you, individualized to your particular situation and needs by asking non-judgmental questions and providing thoughtful inquiry.  Obstacles are welcomed as learning opportunities, not failures.  Coaching helps you turn goals into achievable action plans and makes your good intentions become a reality. 

Just as athletes have coaches to help them improve their skills, your coach is a confidential partner who provides the tools and guidance to help you design and create the life you really want.

Why does coaching work?

Coaching works because it brings out your best.  A coach asks powerful questions, listens intently, give advice, makes challenging requests, and helps you stay focused. Behavioral science has shown that one-on-one coaching is among the most effective approaches to helping people make and sustain improvements in their lives. As your coach, I provide you with the support, guidance and encouragement you need to make the changes you want.
