What is Health Coaching?
-
Client-Driven
Health coaching is about you! You are the expert of your own experience and you know your body, mind, and spirit better than any expert. I highlight the clues that lie within to help you identify and reach your goals.
-
Confidential
All sessions are 100% confidential and HIPAA compliant.
-
Collaborative
Health coaching is a partnership based on mutual respect, trust, and open communication. It empowers clients by encouraging them to take an active role in their health journey. I will facilitate self-discovery and support you in making informed decisions.
-
Holistic
Health coaching acknowledges the interconnectedness of all aspects of your life (physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual) and recognizes that improving one area can positively impact the others.
-
Transformational
Health coaching focuses on empowering clients to make positive and sustainable changes in their lives. I work to foster a positive and growth-oriented mindset that can help you overcome obstacles and embrace change. Through self-reflection and exploration, you will gain deeper insight into your strengths, values, and motivations. This self-awareness is essential for making meaningful and lasting change.
-
Accessible
Health coaching is offered virtually on Zoom. It is accessible to you almost anywhere and anytime that fits your schedule.

“Dr. Larey Swanson bridges the gap between a medical event and mental fallout that can occur months or years later.
She is an excellent listener, asks compelling questions and eases one on a path to wholeness and recovery. Best of all Dr. Swanson’s background as a medical physician provides a depth of understanding not found typically. Talking to Larey about my recent ACL tear that revealed congenital heart failure, surgery and months of recovery, left me questioning my place in the world. She has greatly helped me sift through emotions brought on by a medical diagnosis.“
