Health Coaching for Weight Management

Weight management that fits your life

Weight management can be about much more than a number on the scale. You may be looking to lose weight, maintain weight you've already lost, improve your health or body composition, or feel better in your body. Even when you know what you'd like to do, turning intentions into everyday habits can be difficult.

Because weight-related goals can be influenced by many parts of life, a whole-person approach can take into account factors such as eating patterns, movement, sleep, stress and recovery, routines, and your environment. Health coaching can help you work through obstacles and build realistic habits that fit your life and support the goals that matter to you.

  • Finding realistic ways to fit in more physical activity
  • Supporting sleep, stress, and recovery

  • Maintaining progress and adapting when life changes

Frequently Asked Questions

Can health coaching help with weight loss or weight management?

Health coaching can support the habits and lifestyle changes involved in weight management, including nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, routines, and your everyday environment. Coaching can help you clarify what matters to you, work through obstacles, and find realistic changes you can build on over time.

How does health coaching fit with medical or nutrition care?

Health coaching is designed to complement, not replace, medical or nutrition care. I can help you put recommendations into practice and support day-to-day behavior change, while your physician, registered dietitian, or other healthcare professionals remain responsible for diagnosis, treatment, medications, medical testing, and individualized nutrition care.

What if I'm using a GLP-1 medication?

Health coaching can support the lifestyle changes that may be part of GLP-1 treatment, such as eating patterns, movement, sleep, stress, routines, and maintaining healthy habits over time. Coaching does not prescribe, adjust, or provide guidance about medications, so medication-related questions should stay with your prescribing clinician.
