​​Why refer to a health and wellness coach?
Coaches partner with patients to support behavior change, self-management, and overall well-being.
Using motivational interviewing, active listening, and evidence-based strategies,
we help patients bridge the gap between medical advice and daily life.
​
Benefits for your patients include:
-
Increased engagement with treatment plans and medical advice
-
Improved self-efficacy, motivation, and accountability
-
Sustainable lifestyle changes (nutrition, movement, sleep, stress management)
-
Support for managing stress, anxiety, and emotional well-being
-
Better outcomes in chronic disease self-management
-
A safe, non-judgmental space for goal-setting and overcoming ambivalence
​
​
Collaborate & Connect
Coaches can serve as a bridge between appointments, helping patients stay focused, motivated, and accountable.
With patient consent, updates can be shared to align coaching with your care plan.
This team-based approach can improve outcomes, reduce relapse risk, and enhance patient satisfaction.​
