I am often asked what, exactly, it is that I do. What is a Functional Medicine Health Coach?
Unlike traditional health coaches, Functional Medicine Health Coaches focus on identifying the root cause of health problems, rather than simply treating the symptoms. By using functional medicine principles, I work with clients to understand the underlying imbalances in their body that may be contributing to their health issues. This allows us to create a customized plan that addresses the individual's unique needs.
Here are some of the key components of my coaching process:
1. Conduct an in-depth assessment: I begin by conducting a thorough assessment of the client's health history, current symptoms, and lifestyle factors. Functional Medicine lab testing is used to help identify drivers of inflammation, and any imbalances that may be contributing to illness. This helps us understand the underlying causes of their health issues and develop a plan that is tailored to their specific needs.
2. Develop a personalized plan: Based on the assessment, I work with clients to develop a personalized plan that includes diet, lifestyle changes, and supplements. This plan is designed to address any imbalances in the body and promote optimal health and wellness.
3. Provide ongoing support: As a health coach, I provide ongoing support to clients as they implement their plan. Everyone’s life is different, and how they create change is unique. I help them stay on track, troubleshoot any issues that arise, and make adjustments as needed to ensure they are seeing progress.
I work uniquely close with my clients to partner with them in their wellness journey.
4. Collaborate with other healthcare professionals: I work closely with other healthcare professionals, to ensure a comprehensive approach to my clients’ health. By working together as a care team, we can provide the best possible care for clients.
As part of the team I often say, the doctor gives you the “what” to do, and I provide the “how.”
In summary, as a National Board-Certified Functional Medicine Health Coach, I am trained to identify the underlying causes of health issues and develop a personalized plan to promote optimal health and wellness. By being an integral part of a care team, I can help clients achieve lasting results and improve their overall quality of life.
In addition to my coaching skills, I bring my personal experience and autoimmune expertise to my clients to provide them a framework for healing.
If you are interested in learning more about how I support my clients, or might support you, book a complimentary call with me.
