Health coaching
Ready to make a lasting change? Our health coaches are here to help you on that journey! Eligible members can work confidentially with a health coach, available at no cost, to better understand your health, how to advocate for yourself, self-manage ongoing health issues, and build lasting healthy habits.
Confidential, one-on-one health coaching
At Moda Health, we’re here to support you on your journey to better health. Our certified health coaches are experts in behavior change. They know that two people with the same diagnoses will likely have different health goals and different journeys to meet those goals. Your coach won’t tell you what to do. They will ask you questions to get to know you, your health, and what matters most to you. They’re your partner in making lasting changes and helping you move toward feeling your best. Together, you’ll talk through what you want, what gets in the way, and what motivates you. Each time you meet, they’ll work with you to explore what the next step could be — always supporting you, never pressuring you.
Frequently asked questions
What does a health coach do that my doctor can’t?
Your provider may give you recommendations on what to do, but they might not have the time to talk through how to make those changes happen. That’s where your coach comes in. They can help you explore the “why” behind your goals so the changes feel meaningful and doable. Maybe you want more energy, less pain in the morning, or to keep up with your grandkids. Your coach will gently guide you in understanding what truly motivates you, so you can turn those goals into reality.
Why work with a health coach?
At Moda Health, we know that making changes can be hard, especially when dealing with health issues or chronic conditions. A health coach is a partner who supports you in taking small action steps that can lead to big results over time. And, since it’s a part of your benefits, there’s no additional cost to you.
Habits related to nutrition, exercise, stress management, sleep and more can move you toward better health and wellbeing. Working with a health coach helps you navigate changes, creating habits that last.
