Primary Care

A plan is easy. Keeping it is the work.

Health coaching supports the lifestyle medicine plan you leave the office with — regular accountability, practical problem-solving, and adjustment when life gets in the way.

Nearly every patient already knows roughly what they should be doing. The gap is not information — it is the distance between a plan written in an exam room and a Tuesday evening when you are tired, the fridge is empty and the walk did not happen.

Health coaching closes that gap. It runs alongside your lifestyle medicine care as a structured series of check-ins focused on execution: what actually happened this week, what got in the way, and what the smallest workable change is before we speak again.

What coaching works on

Nutrition changes you can sustain, including moving toward plant-based eating
Building physical activity into the schedule you actually have
Sleep routines and sleep hygiene
Stress management and recovery
Weight management alongside your medical plan
Adherence to medication and monitoring for chronic conditions
Reducing or eliminating tobacco, alcohol and other substance use

How it works

1

Baseline

We start from the six lifestyle medicine competencies already assessed in your care — nutrition, activity, stress, sleep, connection and substance use — so coaching begins with real data rather than a questionnaire.

2

Small, specific commitments

Each session ends with one or two changes concrete enough to be answerable yes or no next time. Vague goals fail; specific ones do not.

3

Regular accountability

Scheduled check-ins keep the plan alive between medical visits, and what is learned there feeds back into your physician's plan.
