What is Nutrition Coaching?

Nutrition coaching is customized to meet your individual needs. It starts with an in depth assessment of your health now, your desires, goals and your overall relationship with the food. Coaches look at your lifestyle, its stresses and support systems, your habits and beliefs. 

We all know in the long run, diets fail. Although they look promising with rigid structure, appealing recipes and quick sure fire ways to lose weight, the reality is most end in defeat and discouragement. Why? What is missing?

Lots of things. 

Diets do not go at the root of the problem. Most women have had issues with food at some point in their lives. Many do not remember life without a nagging sense of guilt or denial when it comes to what they eat. We tend to know the right foods, but have no idea how to prepare them, or incorporate them into a normal, fast-paced American lifestyle.

My coaching is holistic, not a quick fix. Yes goals can be set, meal plans determined and good solid nutrition practices taught. True transformation comes with compassionate, consistent, flexible coaching that creates accountability, feedback and solutions that launch you into deep personal discovery and development. Changes in the way you think along with the habits and practices you live out will lead you to breakthroughs in your relationship with food that are sustainable. The education and hands on experience you gain through three or six months of a coaching relationship make all the difference.
