Frequently Asked Questions

Health coaching is a collaborative process to help clients set and achieve wellness goals by focusing on lifestyle changes in areas like nutrition, exercise, and stress management. Unlike therapy or medicine, which focus on diagnosing and treating specific conditions, health coaching takes a proactive, whole-person approach, empowering clients to make lasting changes for overall well-being. It complements, rather than replaces, medical care or therapy.

Health coaching is for you if you’re ready to make lasting changes to improve your overall well-being. If you're looking for personalized guidance, support, and accountability to reach your health goals—whether it's better nutrition, fitness, stress management, or mental wellness— coaching can help. It’s a great fit if you're motivated to take control of your health and are open to exploring new strategies to enhance your life.

During a coaching session, you can expect a personalized, collaborative experience. Each session is tailored to your unique needs and goals, ensuring that we work together to create a plan that fits your lifestyle and helps you move closer to your wellness objectives.

Functional health focuses on finding and addressing the root causes of health issues, taking a holistic approach that looks at lifestyle, nutrition, environment, and overall well-being. Unlike traditional health approaches, which often focus on treating symptoms or managing specific conditions, functional health seeks long-term solutions by understanding the whole person and promoting sustainable wellness.

Holistic nutrition focuses on nourishing the body with whole, nutrient-dense foods while considering the person’s overall lifestyle, environment, and emotional well-being. It emphasizes balance, sustainability, and individualized care, recognizing that every person has unique nutritional needs. Unlike other types of nutrition counseling, which may focus more on specific diets or short-term goals, holistic nutrition takes a broader, long-term approach to support both physical health and mental well-being.
