October 11, 2007 - Last month wellness coach Emily Thomsen tallied up the statistics of the more than 80 clients she has coached in the last year and a half and discovered a collective weight loss of more than 1000 pounds! In addition, her clients have reduced their cholesterol levels by an average of 40 points, lowered blood pressure by an average of 16 points, improved their fitness and enhanced their overall quality of life.
Thomsen recently began accepting clients in her private practice, Health for You. She coaches people around the country over the telephone, making it convenient for anyone, anywhere, with even the busiest schedule. She offers a free consultation to determine if her skills meet the needs and desires of potential clients. Enrollment requires a six-month contract, during which clients receive weekly phone consultations of up to 30 minutes. Clients are encouraged to keep a food and exercise diary and perform periodic assessments, logging the results to track their progress. Thomsen provides her clients with up-to-date health information. She helps them set weekly goals to keep them on track for achieving their long-term goals; develop a personally-tailored fitness plan; and employ the most effective strategies for personal change.

Changing your lifestyle on your own can be difficult. “When it comes to our health, most of us know what to do but just don’t get around to doing it,” Thomsen says. “Many of my clients report that the accountability was invaluable to their success. Others say they received much more from the program than they ever expected. Coaching works!” A wellness coach can provide you with the education, motivation and support you need to make lasting changes.
