About
What I like most about my job is the close one on one connection that is developed between my client and myself. What other vocation allows you to really focus on another human being for a solid hour at a time, twice a month for 6 months or weekly for 3 months? I also provide email and telephonic support in between visits. I love watching the evolution of a client's health from our first session through to our last one. I enjoy the fact that these changes become permanent in the client's life.

I had a great experience with Arlene and would recommend anyone to visit with her. Throughout my journey, she was a great support system and coach. She introduced new approaches that aided in my success and was always there for me along the way. She remained positive throughout our time together which helped me to think more positively. She has a great energy which is a very important quality when getting started on any journey. I have continued to practice the techniques she had taught me and look forward to when I will have another opportunity to work with her.

I worked with Arlene for five months and she was wonderful. I struggled with my weight - it would drop, and then i would put it back on again. I had had enough and wanted to find someone that would help me once and for all kick this nasty cycle.
Arlene listened to my history, schedule, and concerns. She took not only my physical health into consideration, but my mental health as well. She pushed me when i needed it, yet also understood when life got tough and offered mental and physical advice to get me through.
She helped me set firm, reachable goals for each meeting.
I have internalized and absorbed so much from my time with Arlene; there is no going back to the cycle for me.

I can wholeheartedly say that Arlene made all the difference in my pursuit of living a healthy, sustainable lifestyle. I came to Arlene after hitting a weight-loss plateau; fitness alone was not producing the results I was striving for anymore. I came to Arlene hoping she could help me get my nutrition in check and get back on the right path, and she did so much more than I could have imagined! Not only did we nail down a meal plan within the first couple visits, I started seeing results immediately! Over the next five months I averaged 1.5lbs lost per week, and reached my goal of 30 lbs lost with three sessions to spare! Arlene took the time to get to know me, my lifestyle and my goals, and I am BEYOND THRILLED with my results! I will be checking in with Arlene monthly for the next 90 days to ensure I stay on track.
Arlene, thank you SO VERY MUCH for the time and care you invested in me! I am so grateful and fortunate to have met you. I know the things you have taught me will carry me into a healthy future! Thank you!!

Arlene is very personable, as well as honest with her clients. She isn't just doing her job, she genuinely cares for the people she is coaching.

Arlene is profession and discrete with her clients. She takes the time to get to know them and get to the root of the issue. Her background and knowledge is tremendous. Working with Arlene has been an invaluable experience and well worth every dollar spend. After struggling with unexplained weight gain over the past 3 years I have finally been able to take it off. While I was already eating healthy, I have learned life long go to strategies. It is about making long term incremental changes and staying focused.

FAQs
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Beyond my health coaching certification, I hold an M.A. in counseling, and am a doctoral student (PhD) of Health Psychology at North Central University under a full ride scholarship. I also attend professional coaching conferences every few months and am always current on the latest and greatest coaching techniques and information. I recently completed an intensive Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) course designed for coaches, nutritionists, psychiatrists and psychologists from all over the world. Judith Beck, PhD was our instructor - a world expert and author in the field of CBT. I learned strategies to help my clients effectively change their eating behavior to help them lose weight.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I support my clients through improving their health and well-being. During the course of my 6 month program, I see them lose weight, take better self care and become more active. I commonly see clients transform from over-weight, sluggish and unhappy to lighter, more energetic and inspired people. Through my support they improve their relationships with food, family, friends and most importantly with themselves.
