Q: What will happen at a wellness coach session?
A: The process of the coaching session is based entirely on the goal that you are interested in setting. The wellness coach鈥檚 priority is to facilitate a discussion to understand the reason that you chose to come to the session, the obstacles that are stopping you from achieving a desired goal, and mapping out a plan to be able to achieve that goal in a healthy way. A wellness coach may ask you to explain your goals, talk about different areas of your life to develop 鈥渢he big picture鈥, and will guide the conversation to set goals around the desired health changes.
Q: What do I need to do to prepare for my coaching session?
A: Book the appointment and come to the session with a goal in mind. That鈥檚 about it! Wellness Coaching is not a scripted process with a pre鈥恉etermined outcome. Each conversation is different and the only thing you need to do as a client is prepare to be willing to talk honestly about the obstacles in your life that are keeping you from achieving your health and wellness goals.
Q: What can a Wellness Coach help with?
A: If there is something related to health that is affecting a person鈥檚 ability to live life as they would like, a wellness coach will be able to work through those obstacles and help in the goal setting process to make the desired changes, no matter the subject.
Q: How many sessions are necessary?
A: The most effective number of sessions will completely depend on the goal that is set and the individual. Things like life circumstance, time, motivation, etc. may affect the process. It is usually recommended to have at least one follow鈥恥p to assess the success of the goal鈥恠etting and making process. Like coaching in general, it is completely up to the client if a follow鈥恥p is necessary.
