I finished my coach training. I'm already authorized to coach by Duke Integrative Medicine and the State of NC. I have coached my own clients. My company, Optimize Your Health Coaching, became an LLC in May 2025. To be certified, I need 1 more exam—this one is based on a confidential Zoom audio recording (no video) of a 25-30" session; as a new client only, if you sign the consent form for me to submit this session to Duke Integrative Medicine, the first 6 sessions (up to $180) will be free.

Please Book a Call for free to see whether my coaching could support your goals and we are a good fit to work together. If I could help you and you sign my Coaching Agreement on Vibly, as well as other necessary forms after discussing them with me during a separate, free meeting (30" long), a complimentary Zoom session (25-30") will follow so you can experience my coaching at no charge before you commit to it. Either of us can terminate the Coaching Agreement in writing.

We’ll first go over the process, price, questions you have about the Coaching Agreement we must sign for coaching, etc., on Zoom for free. After that, the 25-30" complimentary Zoom coaching session will let you try the methods used and decide if you'd like to commit to 3 months of telehealth coaching on Zoom/Vibly.io. Normally, sessions are 60" every other week for 3 months; use my Vibly calendar to schedule them. If needed, we'll add up to 3 more months for difficult situations.

New clients: Free—discovery call and 25-30" Zoom session. Ask me about additional free sessions. Regularly, it costs $30 per hr. twice a month at 50% off or $180.00 for six sessions in 3 months of coaching. Established clients: it's $60 per hr. twice a month or $360.00 for 3 months. We can discuss monthly billing or a sliding fee scale as exceptions. The fee should be paid through Vibly.io with a credit or debit card, or by ACH-direct deposit. I can't accept insurance, Medicare or Medicaid.

A charge applies to payments made with a domestic or international credit card, which is my cost to have Stripe process payments through Vibly; see https://stripe.com/pricing (no blank spaces). Neither Vibly nor I charge additional fees. Bank payments made with a debit card or ACH-direct deposit incur a smaller fee, specified at https://stripe.com/pricing. Please refer to your invoice for your pricing breakdown details. US bank cashier or certified checks or drafts need my prior authorization.

Usually, clients accomplish their goals in 3 months of coaching, or in 6 months for more complex issues. As a coach, I’ll be your guide during the process of breaking with undesirable habits that impede your goals. We’ll partner together to implement a plan tailored to you with agreed upon strategies. We will break them down into small, manageable steps based on your envisioned best health and wellness, why having them is important and meaningful to you, and other aspects.

Yes, you can message me through Vibly. I'll respond as soon as I'm able.
