What are the benefits of holistic medical coaching?

I facilitate shared decision-making among physician, patient, and caregiver.

BUT I AM NOT YOUR PHYSICIAN . . . I’m your coach! With advanced illness, the last thing you need is another physician.

• I don’t work with your doctor, I work for your best interest.
• I understand doctor talk and explain what it means to you.
• I discuss the consequences of medical decisions.
• I support your innate ability to feel well without medicine.
• I keep it real by not providing false hope.

Essential Rules of Coaching:

1. Listen to your story
2. Clarify your thinking
3. Feel your emotions
4. Offer straight-talk / accountability
5. Set expectations / avoid pitfalls
6. Create new habits / adaptation
7. Incorporate self into the goal

Coaching Costs:

Health insurers only pay for what doctors order.
Self-determination with holistic care is self-pay.

Meetings: 1-1, family discussion, home visit, coffee shop, zoom meeting, by phone.
Rescheduling/Cancellations: Please give 48-hour notice to avoid charging the full fee.
