FAQ
-
What is health coaching?Health coaching is a one-on-one OR group consulting service in which a certified health coach provides customized, tactical support to help you achieve your health and wellness goals. Whether you’re seeking to rid yourself of chronic symptoms related to leaky gut or you want to reverse your Alopecia Areata without medication as I have, I'll create a customized self-healing program that supports you with the practical, strategic advice and accountability required to make the healthy diet and lifestyle changes required to heal yourself.

How can I tell if I'd benefit from health coaching?Health coaches don’t diagnose or treat disease or take the place of your medical doctor, naturopathic, or functional medicine doctor, though we can work in tandem with them to support your overall health goals. As your health coach, my job is to guide you every step of the way, through my self-healing methodology to heal your gut and reverse your chronic inflammatory symptoms (yes, even hair loss associated with alopecia) so your body can return to functioning how it should. All of my self-healing programs include a targeted gut-healing protocol to help you uncover the best healing diet for your unique body. You'll learn how to use food and parasympathetic promoting lifestyle habits as medicine to reduce inflammation and promote balance. You'll leave my self-healing program with a new anti-inflammatory diet and lifestyle that you love the tools you need to keep your gut happy and your body in balance long-term - without my coaching support. This isn't about only sharing information. All of my self-healing programs help you create sustainable, healthy, habit changes that will serve you positively for the rest of your life.
-
When and where do health coaching sessions happen?Both private and group coaching sessions happen virtually over Zoom and sessions are recorded so you get the replay in case you miss one. Sessions happen every two weeks so you have time between sessions to implement behaviour change at home. Sessions will occur on the same day, at the same time each week. E.g. every other Monday at 5 PM.
-
How long are coaching sessions?Each coaching session is fifty (50) minutes.

Is health coaching covered by insurance?Health coaching is not yet covered by most insurance companies. However, some larger companies and premium plans offer health spending accounts, which may have coverage for life, nutrition, or health coaching. It never hurts to ask whether you can use that money towards my services!
