Hayley M. says, "Coming to see Donna was one of the best decisions I could have made for my health. I have had stomach problems since I was very little and have gotten very little guidance that has helped. I have had nearly every test done to figure out what was causing my stomach problems and nothing ever came back. I was always told I just had a weird version of IBS and to move on. Fed up, I decided to try seeing a nutritionist and found Donna. Donna uses the LEAP protocol for her patients with potential food allergies/intolerances. I will be honest here, it is not a fun process. You need to be committed to figuring out your food problems for this to work. But if you stick with it, it is so worth it. I strictly followed the protocol for over 4 months and I have learned so much. Some things I already knew (wheat is a problem) but others I didn't. For instance, gluten grains (such as spelt, which I was using as a wheat substitute) make me sleepy. Also, rice seems to upset my stomach, which is in pretty much every gluten free item out there. I never would have found these (and other) things out if I had not followed the protocol. Donna helped me through this every step of the way. She was always available by email or phone and she never made me feel rushed at appointments. She will take the time you need during her meetings with you, even if that means a 2 hour meeting. She tries to make sure you have all of the resources you need to make this process easier and is always there with a supportive word. Now that I have gone through the protocol, we are working on healthy eating habits to carry forward. I cannot recommend her enough."See more

Cuong N. says, "First off I’d like to state that I wasn’t motivated for weight training or meal planning. Doctors just recommended that it’d be a good idea as well as healthy. So I found a flyer on my windshield and usually I just throw them out but I was like why not check this one out and there was his initials TR. So I took it to the gym and turned out the first guy I talked to turned out to be Taylor. We talked a little about how I’d might try it out maybe like 30 minutes every couple days or so, which was perfectly fine with him. He gave me plenty of options and plans as to what I could do to shape up what I wanted as well as meal plans that would help out which had lots of good food I could still eat that were healthy. So days go on and I still didn’t hit the gym, he gave me a call I swung by and started my work outs. Light but felt good. I did skip a couple days here and there but as it went on I was just somehow more motivated to work out. I went from 30 minutes every couple days to about 45 minutes to an hour 4 days a week as well as changing my diet. About 2 months later and I’ve lost about 18 pounds and 7% body fat which is great news but then I had to buy new clothes. Anyways I would just like to say that Taylor is a great and easy guy to talk to. Has many options and plans to accommodate anybody’s needs. Great at motivating me to work out. We’ve even hung out a few times after workout grabbing lunch. So I’d recommend him to anybody. "See more

Kim R. says, "I found Carina through my physical therapist, and I was extremely pleased with the time she was my workout trainer. Her sessions were customized in a way that if an exercise felt off or painful due to my previous injury/body weakness, she would easily find an alternative that worked that part of the body in a safe way. I trust her knowledge of the body and felt motivated by her workouts. I saw results in my strength, and knowledge of how to correctly do the different exercises. Carina has a calm, encouraging personality, but she will also hold you accountable to do all your reps and make the most of your workout. She is professional and down to earth. If you are looking for someone to help you get in shape, I think you will be more than pleased with Carina and with the results she can help you achieve."See more

Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

What is a health coach?

A health coach is a service provider you can hire to help you realize your wellness goals. You can hire a health and wellness coach to guide you through life changes, keep you focused on weight loss or fitness goals, help boost your mental health, and more. Many health coaches work with their clients for set periods of time as the client moves toward a measurable goal. Wellness coaches come from varying backgrounds, and may have different areas of focus depending on their education and training. Research potential coaches by reading their reviews, researching their academic and personal backgrounds, and learning about any certifications they have earned from coaching institutes. Often, health and wellness coaches sell coaching packages ranging from three to six months or longer, depending on the client’s needs. The average national cost for an individual health coach session ranges from $60 to $90, although prices may range as low as $30 or up to $130 or more, depending on your location and the coach.

What is a holistic wellness coach?

When you want to reach new heights with your health and wellness, consider hiring a holistic wellness coach. Much like a health coach, a holistic wellness coach is focused on your well-being and meets with you in one-on-one sessions to help you identify and reach your targeted goals. A holistic wellness coach will typically have you take all components of your life into account when working to achieve your goals. If your goal is to lose weight, a holistic wellness coach will not only offer recommendations for your diet and exercise, but also discuss your emotional health, your work/life balance, your spiritual side, and each area of your life that affects your ability to follow a nutrition and fitness plan.

Although they are highly motivational and often can help clients achieve great results, holistic wellness coaches are not professional health care providers or registered dietitians. Different institutes and training centers provide certifications for holistic wellness coaching, so be sure to research your coach and read their reviews to understand more about their techniques and training.
