What is Wellness Coaching
 Who are Wellness Coaches?
Wellness coaches (including executive wellness coaches) work with individuals to help them improve all areas of wellness including fitness, nutrition, weight, stress, health, and management of the life issues that impact wellness. Wellness coaches are health, fitness, and mental health professionals (e.g. fitness professionals, dietitians, nurses, physical therapists, health educators, physicians, psychotherapists) who have also completed wellness coach training and certifications from leading organizations including Wellcoaches Corporation, in partnership with the American College of Sports Medicine.
While personal coaching is a proven paradigm for improving athletic and executive performance, only now is it available to support health and wellbeing.
Certified coaches are trained to apply core competencies of coaching psychology drawn from evidence-based behavioral psychology, counseling, motivational interviewing, positive psychology, adult learning theory, and solution-oriented therapy.
Clients think that having a coach can help them move to a new place in their lives, and help them make lasting changes happen. Having a coach is particularly powerful when you decide to fully commit to making significant changes in one or more areas of your life.
