True Health Coaching Is Integrative, Transformational, Cutting Edge, Personalized & Evidence-Based.

Evidence-based health coaching is an emerging and holistic field rooted in a transtheoretical model—which is a fancy was of saying that it creatively harmonizes a variety of therapeutic techniques and theories to achieve greater health outcomes. Most distinctive and transformational about this approach is that it presents the challenge to jump off the bandwagon of everyone else’s recipes for your health. It is an industry-disrupting invitation to find your own balanced approach to self-care, using known curative measures in your own authentic way. Health coaches are specifically trained to treat you as an original person on a unique journey, with critical expertise on the matter of your wellbeing.

Take a minute and let the meaning of this avant-garde medical premise sink in:

You are an expert in your constantly evolving state of health. Without a doubt, you are an integral agent of your own wellness.

Now look, we live in a fast-paced, information-inundated time. On every corner another pundit roars supposedly universal, 1-10-step, wellness remedies. To be sure, much can be gained from learning different health strategies and these experts offer invaluable information and research. And importantly, your health needs, panaceas, and paths to wellbeing must be individualized to your distinct set of circumstances, genetics, values, strengths, and more.

While there are absolutely some recognized facts about how to achieve optimal health (such as: eat plants) and general medical knowledge about causes of dis-eases (such as: low Vitamin D), health coaching is primarily about something so much more fundamental and life-altering than mere advice and content education. It is about what I call unearthing or discovering your template for change—your personal and completely transferable skillset for your unique, intrinsic motivation.

You see, your bloomswell is driven by you. As your health coach, I am a temporary, and as-needed, catalyst for the self-discovery of your optimal self and life. You are not a number, a generalization, or a stereotype. You are not just your genes, not entirely your past. In many ways, you are beautifully and mysteriously beyond definition. A constantly changing being. As Walt Whitman said, “I am large, I contain multitudes.” As Ed Yong quips, “Perhaps it is less that I contain multitudes and more that I am multitudes.”

It is no secret that change is difficult. Some habits are like old, worn shoes—desperately in need of replacement, but comfortable, familiar, hard to let go of. The science of change is one of the most universally generalizable constants in my practice. Learning your personal methodology for how to achieve your individualized health outcomes, coupled with greater self-awareness, empowerment, self-efficacy, and self-determination, offers an incalculable value.

Your growth, which is rooted in my dialectical belief in your own current state of immeasurable worth and your desire, need, and ability to achieve a more optimal health, is my mission, my raison d'être.
