MenoCraft research snapshot: evidence for health coaching from Australia and the NHS

Health coaching is a recognised way of helping people manage their own health.  Your GP or health practitioner can tell you what to change.


A health coach helps you act on it — turning advice into goals and habits that fit your life, alongside medical care, not instead of it.


Leading health authorities recognise that health coaching can improve people's health outcomes.  It's driven by your goals and you decide how to move forward.  Judgement free in a safe space.


If you want the fuller write-up (and how I work with clients), it's on my Why Coaching page.
