An integrative wellness coach is a trained professional who works with clients to achieve their health and wellness goals. Coaching can occur in one-on-one and group settings.

Integrative wellness coaches draw upon a variety of scientifically proven methods for change including behavioral psychology, motivational interviewing, positive psychology, adult learning theory, and solution-focused theory.

Leslie works with individuals and groups virtually.

The coaching process includes four stages:
First, we clarify your values and dreams to reveal why your health is essential.
Second, we perform a self-assessment of the 7 cores areas and select an area of focus.
Third, we create a powerful plan of action that sets you up for success.
Finally, as you work your plan, we meet regularly to account, celebrate, and troubleshoot.

While integrative wellness coaching can be therapeutic, it is not therapy. Coaching is not designed to address psychological issues. While emotional issues may arise, the primary focus of wellness coaching is to help you identify your goals, achieve them, and develop constructive habits and skills.

Typically, clients begin with a 3-month commitment.

The coaching partnership is totally voluntary; either party can end the partnership by giving two-weeks notice if it doesn’t appear to be a good fit.

The investment depends on a couple of factors:

1. how long we plan to work together
2. the type of coaching (one-on-one or group)

So, we need to talk with one another to discover whether we’re a good fit and, if we are, which package best suits your needs. Please call or schedule your introductory session. I look forward to meeting you!
