Health Coaching & Genetic Analysis
Looking for a Health Coach to Provide Support & Accountability?
- Have you finally accepted diets don’t work and are ready for a new, saner approach to food and body?
- Are you struggling with implementing the facets of a healthy lifestyle including sleep, physical fitness, meditation, nutrition & stress management?
- Do you struggle with autoimmunity, food intolerences, IBS or other digestive problems?
- Are you sick of doctors not being able to figure out what’s wrong with you (because you know something is “off”) and looking for some answers?
- Do you suspect your genetics could be limiting you in unnecessary ways that you’d like to overcome?
Look no further! If you answered yes to any of these, fill out the contact form on this page to ask questions or set up your appointment.
Our owner & resident Certified Holistic Health Coach, Heather Shannon, LCPC will take a holistic approach in finding a wellness plan that is customized to your specific lifestyle and addresses your unique challenges–things like hormone imbalance, gut bacteria, genetic predispositions, not wanting to cook, schedule concerns, reactions to specific foods and more. Sessions can be conducted in-person, or via Skype or phone.
Health Coaching Packages
Single Session: $150
In your session, Heather will review your intake form to get a clear sense of what is going on with your nutrition and lifestyle habits. After discussing your goals and potential obstacles, she will provide her Top 3 recommendations for healthy changes & a realistic plan for implementing them. Single sessions are advisable for simple and straightforward cases without health complications and are ideal for those who have behavioral accountability elsewhere (like from their Lotus therapist!) since they do not allow for follow-up
Package of 3 sessions (Recommended): $395
A package of 3 sessions is recommended for most cases, including more complicated health issues like Leaky Gut, autoimmune conditions or mysterious symptoms that are unexplained by Western medicine. This package allows for follow up questions, behavioral accountability and dialing in a custom lifestyle plan that is right for you.
Genetic Analysis Package: $425
This package requires a raw data file from your 23andMe.com or Ancestry.com results. First you will have a half hour phone call to explain any symptoms or reasons why you are interested in Genetic Analysis. Heather will ask questions to understand your concerns and goals so that she can home in on key areas of your genetic report that will have the most impact for you. Then your raw data will be run through a software that will provide a report of your DNA SNPs (mutations). Heather will analyze these to see what could be impacting symptoms and goal areas and will develop a write-up of your mutations and corresponding recommendations. You will then have a follow up session (phone, Skype or in-person) to go over the SNPs that were found and the recommendations in Heather’s write-up. You will be advised on how to adjust your lifestyle, nutrition and supplementation to best accommodate your unique genetic profile. Those who would like additional support in implementing recommendations, dealing with obstacles to a healthy lifestyle and the psychology of making behavioral changes should purchase the package of 3 listed above.
