What is a Health Coach?

     … and Why You Might Need One

You might be wondering, what exactly does a health coach do? As a health coach, I work with clients on all aspects of lifestyle including sleep, relaxation, movement, stress, nutrition, and relationships through a functional medicine lens. This means I look beyond symptoms to understand the root causes of challenges, so I can help you to create personalized strategies that support your body, mind, and overall well-being.

Working with a health coach at RiseUp is about more than following advice, it’s about rising up and taking an active role in your health. Together, we explore your unique patterns, build awareness, and develop practical strategies that help you show up for yourself each day. This approach empowers you to take control, make intentional choices, and create lasting change that feels achievable and sustainable.

Lifestyle & Health Coaching

Following a healthy lifestyle can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. A health coach provides guidance, accountability, and encouragement, helping you prioritize what matters most and rise up to be your healthiest self.

Testimonials

Talie B

“Working with Katie as my health coach has been such a rewarding experience. In the beginning I was skeptical that a health coach could make an impact and I’m so glad I took the leap to work with Katie. She has worked with me through a tailored approach that is specific to my needs. She provides honest and thoughtful feedback without ever being judgmental about my challenges.

“She has done a significant amount of personal growth work herself, which allows her to bring foresight and wisdom to my own circumstances. She is helping me redefine my relationship with my health, so that I am operating from my heart and intuition vs. some kind of strict rule book. For me, this is transformational.

“My sessions with Katie are fun and lively and I always feel energized and ready to take my next step at the end of every session. I know that my health is all the better for my work with Katie!”

Lori D

“Katie is the perfect fit for me as a coach. She listens well and offers tools and suggestions to try that feel right for me. She also remembers what I say and can remind me of where I was earlier and what progress I’m making, instead of only focusing on the next thing I need to work on, which is really empowering.

“I also appreciate that she is real and willing to share her own experiences, which makes me feel like she can relate to me. I love working with someone who helps me celebrate what is going well while keeping on track with what I need to work on.”

Claire M

“Katie’s approach to coaching is collaborative – what is working for me, what isn’t, and if it isn’t, why not? It is helpful to dig through the ‘why not’ as it is a critical driver for my success. Sometimes the answer is something I can address, but for the times it isn’t, it helps me to change direction when I am part of the conversation and solution. Just being handed a bandage IS helpful, but it is more helpful to understand how you got hurt in the first place. When I meet with Katie, we discuss my progress from our last discussion, my accomplishments with my prior goals, and we circle around what I didn’t achieve as planned. Some answers are easy and obvious…
