As your Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Health Coach, I want to CONGRATULATE you for committing to yourself and to your health in a way you may never have before. The act of deciding is itself an important source of power and momentum for progress!
You’ll see from what’s included in this program that it is designed to deliver a high level of accountability, compassionate support, expertise and the right system, so you continue to make empowered decisions and take bold action toward achieving your wellness goals.
You’ll also see that this coaching system includes PRIVATE and confidential one-on-one coaching time with me, so you can accelerate your results and have my nutrition, health, wellness and lifestyle training and savvy focused on YOU and your individual needs and goals.
Saying “YES” to this experience means you are showing up for yourself in a whole new way, mentally, energetically, spiritually and physically.
Having a clear Coaching Agreement establishes a foundation for our work together.
Coaching services are not in any way to be construed as, or a replacement for, psychotherapy, legal counsel, or medical advice. You are responsible for creating your own decisions and results. You agree not to hold me, or any company I am affiliated with, liable for any outcomes resulting directly or indirectly from the coaching process.
As your coach, you can expect me to:
- Believe in you and in your ability to achieve your vision of success
- Create and hold the ‘container’ of a healing space and structure for your work and your progress during the next 3 months.
- Share targeted information and knowledge with you so you can move forward with your wellness goals much more quickly than you would on your own
- Allow you to be 100% authentic and fully YOU
- Hold you accountable to act from your highest self, even when you may not feel that way
- Be kind and patient with your progress so that you know you always have a safe place to express where you are and what’s going on for you
-
Share creative action steps, ideas and inspiration without the need to have you “like” them (If you don’t like an action step or an idea that we create, no problem—we’ll create another one or you’ll be inspired to create your own.)
-
Coach you to find solutions to challenges that may come up, so you can act from your highest self and achieve your highest potential
-
Keep your sessions and your information confidential. (Sessions will NOT be recorded, neither video nor audio, without your express consent.)
I expect that you, as my client, will:
- Be authentic and honest (especially with yourself), and speak up for what you want
- Commit yourself to intentions that are truly meaningful and significant to you
- Be open to my feedback, and keep me honestly informed as to what is and is not working for you
- Take ownership of your progress and of your accomplishments!
- Be willing to take risks, try new things and stretch beyond your current experience
- Be patient with yourself
- Take financial responsibility for your coaching time. If you are unable to give two days of notice for a missed appointment, you may receive your coaching for that week via private Client Log exchange in my online client portal.
THE OPTIMAL COACHING EXPERIENCE
This coaching program includes 10 private coaching sessions scheduled over 3 to 4 months. These sessions may be in person at my office, online (or by phone), or a combination. As much as possible, they should be scheduled on a fixed time slot (same day, same time), though occasional time/day may be adjusted as mutually arranged, with at least 48hrs notice. These sessions are 50 minutes.
In between regularly scheduled coaching sessions, we will use the "post-session reflection and recap" form to enhance and anchor the benefits of your coaching. This will create a form of journaling of your successes and evolution.
On occasion, you may have a question, request for feedback or want a confidential response to some situation where you don't want to wait for your next call. This is supplemental "just-in-time coaching" where you can use the Client Portal Log. (And in an 'emergency,' you could call or text me direct, 206-719-5311.)
This coaching program also includes (optional) two (2) reviews of any functional lab testing results obtained. (The testing lab fees and the recommended supplements resulting from those tests are not included.)
Functional testing can help identify nutritional and lifestyle priorities targeted to individual needs. (Does not include the fee for the labwork itself. Various options of lab panels may be ordered through me, or possibly through your doctor or another source.) Reviews of any additional, follow up lab work (beyond the first 2 included) to assess progress and identify next steps are available with an extra charge.
This program also includes additional online nutritional assessments, including reviews of questionnaires and a Food & Mood Journal, which will be accessed through a separate website (Nutri-Q.com), where you will also be provided with a client account.
This program also includes a $200 discount if you would like to add the Mastering Metabolism & Midlife Health self-paced, online program to your client portal for extra support and education.
All in all, this program will provide you with targeted and CURATED information that is relevant, practical and actionable, so you can stay out of overwhelm and in action as much as possible.
PRIVATE CLIENT ACCESS
Almost everything we will be using in this coaching experience (most tools and forms, as well as schedules, documents, resources, etc) will be housed conveniently on my secured and confidential "Private Client Portal". Upon enrolling for the coaching experience with me, you will be given a unique username and password. At your convenience you may access this "Private Client Portal" area to access, review and/or update the tools, documents, resources, etc that we'll be using through the program. I will provide you with the access information and further instructions once we begin coaching. (And as mentioned above, some additional forms for nutritional assessments will be accessed through the account at Nutri-Q that I will provide you.)
Through my Private Client Portal, I will provide you with a specific pre-session prep form to support you in preparing for each coaching session so you can leverage every minute we spend together. I will also provide you with another specific tool to support you after our coaching session is complete; this will keep the coaching going into your everyday life. And between each coaching session you will have access to me via the Client Log tool so that at any time you have questions, become stuck or care to share victories I am available to you. (I will generally respond within 48 hrs, often sooner.)
THE SYSTEM OF CONFIDENTIALITY
The Coach represents, warrants and agrees as follows:
All information provided by the Client to the Coach during the course of the coaching relationship will be deemed "Confidential Information" and kept strictly confidential unless otherwise agreed in writing. The Coach will not disclose any communications, either verbal or written, that have taken place either between the Coach and the Client or with regard to this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Client.
This confidentiality restriction also applies to testimonials, which the Coach may use for promotional reasons only with the consent of the Client. The Client may request anonymity in connection with any testimonials to be used.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, "Confidential Information" does not include information that is:
(a) previously known to the Coach prior to discussions regarding this Agreement, free from any obligation to keep it confidential, or
(b) publicly disclosed by the Client either prior to or subsequent to the receipt by the Coach of such information, or
(c) independently developed by the Coach without any access to Confidential Information, or
(d) rightfully obtained by the Coach from a third party lawfully in possession of Confidential Information who is not bound by confidentiality obligations to the Client.
The Coach may disclose Confidential Information if required to do so under applicable law, rule or order; provided that the Coach, where reasonably practicable and to the extent legally permissible, provides the Client with prior written notice of the required disclosure. The Coach will return, or at the Client's request, destroy, all copies of the Confidential Information in the Coach’s possession or control upon termination of this Agreement.
