What is a Health Coach?​

Health Coaches are coaches who focus on health and wellness.

Like other coaches, we are supportive partners & guides on our clients’ health & wellness journeys.

We help clients set & achieve their self-determined health and wellness goals by aligning and balancing the contributing physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and environmental factors.

We support clients in mobilising internal strengths and external resources.

We co-create bio-individual strategies for implementing long-lasting dietary, lifestyle & behaviour changes so that clients can improve and optimise their multidimensional health and wellness.

We focus on food & lifestyle and how each affects markers of health and are armed with evidence-based nutrition knowledge and coaching modalities, traditional and modern approaches as well as personal experience

I can help you with

As a Certified Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, I have completed the Health Coach Training Program at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, and am trained in bio-individuality, multidimensional health, and evidence-based coaching modalities
from many of the world’s leading experts.

I guide my clients to create and maintain long-term lifestyle changes that enhance their overall quality of life.

My coaching is for you if you need the following

Sorting through the "What is Healthy?" chaos

With my training in bio-individuality, multidimensional health, and evidence-based coaching modalities I help cut through the clutter of contradictory and confusing health information and tailor a workable solution to each individual.

Primary Food

Nourishment is so much more than what is on your plate. Let's explore Movement, Spirituality, Connection, Purpose and Environment

Nutrition Education

More and more doctors are prescribing dietary and lifestyle changes to address these conditions but Medical Doctors do not receive training in these areas in their medical degrees. As an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach with training in over 10 dietary theories, as well as being the author of a cookbook, I am uniquely positioned to partner with medical professionals and their patients to stem this tide of ill-health.

Support & Accountability

I offer the connection, support, time and space for ongoing adjustment, feedback self-exploration and self-awareness that is often not available from health care providers and friends and family in a time-pressured world.

How does Health Coaching work?

Health Coaches use a forward-thinking approach. The support they offer is both evidence- and experience-based; it’s a combination of traditional and modern approaches catered to each bio-individual client.

In addition to supporting clients with specific dietary and lifestyle goals, Health Coaches empower clients to choose health-promoting behaviours that work for them.

They raise awareness and offer support as clients move on their own terms toward the greater health they want for themselves.

Coaching can lead to long-term behaviour change, but only because Health Coaches help clients do the meaningful work that forms a strong and mindful foundation for achieving goals.
