A Health Coach/Counsellor is a practitioner that has been trained as an expert in how to influence lasting change as it relates to health, mindset and behaviours. The goal of the health coach is to empower their clients to create new lifelong habits by investigating the psychology and root causes behind the issues they are facing that prevent change.

• Focuses on a functional/holistic approach to health using evidence-based principles for lifestyle and diet.

• Works with a client to achieve health and lifestyle goals.

• Helps to identify road blocks that may be in the way of a client reaching their goal and staying committed.

• Empowers the client to”take the wheel” in their own health journey by building new habits and facilitating long term change.

• Often works in conjunction with other health practitioners such as doctors, naturopathic doctors, dieticians, holistic nutritionists and personal trainers to provide support and accountability with treatment plans.

• A health coach understands a one size fits all protocol is not effective and instead takes into account the complete health history, emotional state and lifestyle habits of an individual to assist in discovering the root cause of his or her health issues.

• Creates action plans that assist with goals for overcoming health challenges, weightloss, managing disease and helping to support support protocols, healthy eating, exercise routines and overall wellness goals.

• Can create personalized recommendations for lifestyle, nutrition, supplements, and more.
