What is a Holistic Wellness Life Coach?

A Holistic Wellness Life Coach is someone who teaches and encourages others to exercise a balanced lifestyle that maintains the quality of the mind, body, and soul. The main focus is to assist you in identifying any existing imbalances present in your life using the MEPS mapping model. Your coach will help you analyze your mental, emotional, physical and spiritual (MEPS), to pinpoint what may be causing you discomfort. In doing so, core issues can be resolved. When traumas and blocks remain unresolved, this leads to a poor mindset. What you think, you do, what you do, you become. Your coach is trained to utilize an integrative approach to both diet and lifestyle changes to improve your overall health. Your nutritional patterns, relationships, thought processes, spirituality and mental health will be looked at very closely to identify any areas that can be strengthened. This will provide you with the long-term satisfaction in the life that you are seeking.

What Is the Difference Between a Life Coach and a Therapist?

What sets Mental Health Therapists and Life Coaches apart is that therapists conduct their sessions on the basis of exploring past issues and fostering introspection to bring awareness from the subconscious to the conscious mind. Therapists analyze why behavioral patterns occur which can be a long process and can take many sessions to reach treatment goals. Life coaches on the other hand work using a solution-focused approach that seeks to directly address the problem clients come in with. The work in a life coaches’ session is more action based and results oriented in efforts to help you to clarify and reach personal goals. In sessions with a Holistic Wellness Coach, more than one area of your life will be viewed and worked on in order provide you with a sense of long-term fulfillment. I am well-versed as both a Mental Health Therapist and as a Holistic Wellness Life Coach and will utilize skillsets and modalities from both realms to customize your journey.

What Kind of Clients Do You Work With?

I work with an array of clients who come in with a range of issues. I have worked with clients who may be experiencing difficult life situations consisting of losing a loved one, losing or acquiring a new job, or loss of abilities due to a newly acquired disability. I also work with adults who may be adjusting to new parenthood or re-designing their lives once their children have become independent. Being that I have served in the United States Air Force, I extend my services to veterans separating from active duty and that are transitioning to civilian life. Other clients I have helped have had difficulties surrounding career changes, divorce, or are in the process of seeking to get to know themselves in attempt to define meaning and purpose in their lives. From a career aspect, I also provide career services to those who may be seeking to boost their career or make a change into another more fulfilling role. In addition, I help professionals with revamping or creating a new resume, cover letter and/or LinkedIn profile to reflect any career changes.
