Wellness Coaching is a program for individuals who want more of something in their lives. It is an intentional, ongoing process for improvement and helping individuals get from where they are currently to where they want to be in a healthy and balanced way.

Wellness Coaches provide a confidential space for individuals to talk, think about, and share thoughts without the fear of judgment or consequences. Wellness Coaches listen for the client’s goals, dreams, aspirations, and possibilities. Then they work on discovering, harnessing, and expanding on the strengths and tools clients already possess.

No. Wellness Coaching is NOT counseling or therapy and should NOT be used as a substitute for counseling. The focus of counseling is to do a deep-dive exploration of an individual’s past or to uncover reasons for problems in their life. The focus of wellness coaching is to help clients move toward their future goals through personal and professional development. *Please note that some counseling and coaching techniques are similar but the focus is very different.

Individuals choose Wellness Coaching for many external and internal reasons. External factors/changes include: starting something new or ending something like a job, relationship, or new circumstance (marriage, relocating, job changing, death, divorce, retirement, etc.), or they are at a crossroad where they need to make a decision. Internal factors include: dissatisfaction with current life situations (career, relationships, finances, fitness, etc.) and nothing has changed in these areas, or they have made the decision to make major changes to improve some aspect of their lives.

Wellness Coaches are not currently required to be licensed or certified in any state, territory, or country. However, Coach Kia holds a Life Purpose and Transformation  Coach certification from Transformation Academy. She is also obtaining a M.A. in Human Services Counseling from Liberty University in the Spring of 2024.

Because of the ongoing nature of wellness coaching, Coach Kia does not charge clients per session but by the coaching program/package chosen by the client and length of time. The terms of service will be completely determined by the client and Coach Kia in the “Coaching Agreement.” 

Coach Kia agrees to readily offer her guidance to help clients make more progress toward their goals than they would make on their own. Their return on investment from this program will be determined by their level of effort and the understanding that they are ultimately responsible for their results. Coach Kia will make reasonable adjustments and provide feedback during the program in an effort to help clients maximize their investment so clients will feel that they are getting what they signed up for.

The terms and conditions of the coaching program will be completely determined by the client and Coach Kia in the “Coaching Agreement.”
