FAQs
What is Health and Wellness Coaching?
A health/wellness coach is someone who is trained in behavior change and uses motivational interviewing skills to help clients recognize their own ability for change. The focus is on helping clients become autonomous experts in their own personal and professional paths. Coaches will collaborate with their clients to develop strategies that can improve their overall well-being and help them discover their own strengths and values. Health/Wellness Coaches are experts in establishing relationships and practicing core coaching skills that assist individuals in setting goals and collaborating with them to establish action plans to reach those goals.
How can Wellness Coaching benefit me?
Working with a wellness coach is a motivating and empowering experience. It can provide self-empowerment to create the life you aspire to live. Through wellness coaching, you may experience a different level of goal setting and health ownership. As your wellness coach, I will apply positive motivational interviewing strategies to help uncover your unique skills, strengths, and resources to reach the sustainable goal you desire.
How do the wellness coaching sessions take place?
Coaching sessions typically last between 30 - 60 minutes and can be held remotely via phone call or your preferred platform (Skype, Zoom, etc). Sessions may also be held in-person at our office if you are local to the Columbus, Ohio metropolitan area. Ultimately, it is for the client to decide how they would prefer their own wellness coaching sessions are to take place.
Are coaching sessions covered under insurance plans?
Currently, health and wellness coaching sessions are not covered by most insurance plans.
