Commonly Asked Questions

What qualifications set you apart from other 'wellness coaches'?

I am a Board Certified-Nurse Coach. I was credentialed from the American Board of Holistic Nurses in 2024 after completing a rigorous program where I learned the mechanics and techniques of nurse coaching.

Almost NO other wellness coaching program can provide a board certification...

As a licensed nurse, I already have a wealth of knowledge and understanding of how to work with patients and clients. As a nurse I have a unique set of skills and resources at my disposable that most other wellness, health and fitness coaches do not.

Prior to being credentialed, I enrolled and graduated The Nurse Coach Collective. This Program is helping Registered Nurses all over the country become nurse health coaches and leaders in their profession. We are teaching nurses to rise above the conventional model of nursing and practice their profession in a way that’s truly inspirational, modern, and impactful.”

What specific areas of wellness do you specialize in?

As a nurse coach, I specialize in supporting individuals who are seeking to improve their overall well-being and quality of life. My approach is holistic, addressing various dimensions of wellness, including physical health, mental and emotional well-being, social connections, spiritual fulfillment, and personal growth. Whether you're looking to manage stress, adopt healthier habits, enhance relationships, find greater meaning and purpose, or simply cultivate a greater sense of balance and vitality in your life, I am here to provide guidance, support, and encouragement every step of the way. My goal is to empower you to become the best version of yourself and to thrive in all aspects of your life.

How are you going to be able to help me find consistency?

I understand the importance of consistency in creating lasting change and promoting overall well-being. I will work with you to develop personalized strategies that align with your values, goals, and unique lifestyle. Together, we'll explore various techniques such as mindfulness practices, habit formation, and gentle accountability measures to help you establish and maintain consistent habits that support your health and wellness journey. Additionally, I'll provide ongoing support, guidance, and encouragement to help you overcome obstacles and stay on track. With my holistic approach, we'll address not only the physical aspects of consistency but also the mental, emotional, and spiritual components, ensuring a comprehensive and sustainable path towards achieving your desired outcomes.

What is the difference between coaching and therapy?

While coaching and therapy can feel similar in the way that you, the client talks, we, the provider, listens and we co-create agreements on how to move forward together; therapy focuses on diagnosing and treating mental health disorders and addressing emotional issues, nurse coaching emphasizes holistic health promotion, lifestyle modification, and empowerment to help clients achieve their wellness goals

How can you guarantee it'll be successful for me?

Successful coaching is about more than just achieving a specific outcome; it's about fostering a deeper understanding of yourself, cultivating resilience, and embracing a holistic approach to health and well-being. My goal is to empower you to become the architect of your own wellness journey, equipped with the confidence and skills to thrive in all areas of your life.

Together, we will explore your goals, identify potential obstacles, and develop strategies that resonate with your values and aspirations. I will provide you with the tools, knowledge, and encouragement you need to make sustainable changes and overcome challenges as they arise.
