Health Coach

Jen Johnson is a health coach offering a mind-body approach to health and wellness As a Board Certified Coach Health and Wellness Coach, I help you reduce stress, strengthen resilience, and create and sustain new habits that support your health and well-being. My integrative approach combines mindfulness, stress physiology, nervous system regulation, and lifestyle change science to support greater clarity, energy, and balance in daily life.

If you have been diagnosed with a medical condition, part of our work will be to help you to better understand the diagnosis and how it affects you, make lifestyle changes that may help to reduce your symptoms, and develop skills to help you cope better with your illness or disease.

It’s possible to learn to live with a greater sense of wellness, even if you’re living with an illness or disease.

What Is a Health Coach

A health coach offers a collaborative process that supports you in making lifestyle changes that support your health and wellness. It focuses on building awareness of lifestyle choices that contribute to stress and imbalance and developing practical strategies that support your overall wellbeing.

Unlike therapy, which focuses on diagnosis and mental health treatment, coaching centers on growth, lifestyle change, and accountability. Coaching can complement medical care or therapy or serve as stand-alone support for improving overall health and wellness.

Through the health coaching process, we clarify your goals, identify challenges, and create realistic steps that support both emotional balance and physical health.

A Mind-Body Approach to Health Coaching and Wellness Coaching

My approach to health coaching recognizes the connection between stress, the nervous system, and daily habits. Rather than quick fixes, we focus on steady, sustainable change that supports long-term health and wellness.

In coaching sessions, you will learn how to:

  • Recognize how stress affects your mind and body
  • Use mindfulness to decrease stress and increase an overall sense of inner peace, happiness, and wellbeing
  • Build consistent routines that improve energy and focus \
  • Learn strategies to support you in following through on medical recommendations from your healthcare providers
  • Strengthen boundaries to reduce stress and overwhelm
  • Set realistic health and wellness goals that fit your life
  • Identify and change patterns that get in the way of your wellbeing

This approach supports lasting lifestyle change by working with both mind and body, within the context of your real life—your responsibilities, relationships, and daily demands by tending ongoing concerns.

Health coaching may be a good fit if you:

  • Feel chronically stressed, overwhelmed, or depleted

  • Want support and accountability while making lifestyle changes
  • Are navigating a demanding season of life or ongoing responsibilities

This work is especially supportive for professionals, caregivers, and individuals in transition who want structured guidance for sustainable change.

Therapy and Coaching

As a licensed counselor and Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach, I maintain clear boundaries between psychotherapy and coaching services.

Coaching is focused on growth, lifestyle change, and building sustainable habits. It does not include diagnosis or mental health treatment.

If clinical care is needed, therapy services or a referral may be recommended.
