WHAT IS A HEALTH COACH?

When you become a Certified Health Coach, you help individuals and families achieve their health and wellness goals by providing trusted, science-based information, positive encouragement and motivation. Health coaches help clients change their lives, improving their physical health and overall wellbeing.

Through coaching, you create individualized solutions that support genuine, lasting lifestyle changes. It’s more than just knowing the science behind nutrition and exercise, it’s understanding how to motivate coaching clients to live happier, healthier lives.

The Dr. Sears Wellness Institute is an Accredited and Approved Health Coach Certification Program by leading organizations in the health and wellness industry. As a pioneer in health coaching, the institute is recognized for their outstanding education, resources and support.

Benefits of Health Coaching Certification

The demand for certified health coach professionals has never been greater.

As a Certified Health Coach, you’ll play a key role in helping clients develop healthier lifestyles, enriching their lives with encouragement, expertise, and support. Our health coach certification courses focus on prevention and provide tools and resources to address obesity, chronic disease, poor nutrition and dietary habits, and a lack of physical fitness that has become the norm for tens of millions of people.

The health, fitness, and nutrition industries are growing fast, and so is the need for dedicated professional health coaches. Recent reports from the U.S. Department of Labor show employment in the field of health coaching is expected to increase by 13%, while the American College of Sports Medicine’s Health and Fitness Journal ranks Health Coaching as the #9 Fitness & Health Trend in 2020.
