Wellness Coaching

“Wellness is the complete integration of body, mind, and spirit – the realization that everything we do, think, feel, and believe has an effect on our state of well-being.”

– Greg Anderson, founder and chairman of the Cancer Recovery Foundation

As a Wellness Coach I have a passion to help clients improve their overall well-being by identifying goals and developing actionable steps to achieve them. I provide guidance, motivation, and accountability to help you create new sustainable lifestyle habits, rather than just offering quick fixes. My role is to act as an “accountability partner” … a mentor but not a director, with a direct no-nonsense yet nonjudgmental attitude. 

My coaching practice, like my psychotherapy practice, is informed by a blending of contemporary evidence-based practices and effective therapies but also allows for the inclusion of world wisdom traditions and other “non-traditional” healing practices.

I combine my training and experience within an integrated mind-body-spirit approach, emphasizing self-actualization, increasing insight and the transformation of consciousness.

My objective is to empower you with a set of tools you can use anywhere anytime to manage life stresses. My commitment to you is to provide a comfortable and safe space or “container” to help establish the trust where you will feel confident enough to do the “work” of exploring your own inner and outer world.

What is Coaching and How is it Different than Psychotherapy?

Wellness Coaching is a holistic approach that utilizes spiritual as well as psychological principles to help individuals transcend ego-based limitations and achieve personal transformation. It emphasizes the connection between mind, body, and spirit, guiding clients toward a deeper sense of meaning, purpose, and interconnectedness.

So how is this different from my psychotherapy practice. In some ways not much, and in other ways there are large differences. Therapists are mental health professionals licensed by individual states to assess, diagnose, and treat mental issue as defined by professional organization like the APA. As such, they often focus their work on identifying and reducing symptoms. Most are credentialled by insurance providers to provide their services where the insurer covers the majority of the cost unless someone elects to pay privately. To accommodate this coverage, therapist are required to submit their assessments and diagnoses to the insurer, and they are restricted in their practice to offer only recognized “evidence-based” methods (although that is a fuzzy requirement allowing for considerable variation).

Coaches are private practitioners who are more often sought out to help motivate and encourage their clients to achieve specific goals, but they are still involved in the identifying and reducing of symptoms as part of their role. Because coaching does not involve the use of insurance providers and does not carry the requirements listed above, they have more freedom in their methods and this can include more experimental or traditional yet non “evidence-based” practices. Coaches are not regulated by state boards, do not require licenses, and are not bound to practice with any borders. But cannot help offset the cost of services except through elected flexible rates.
