These are challenging times for many as we all try to stay well during the COVID-19 pandemic. Common challenges of this experience include finding ways to deal with increased stress, practicing self-care, and maintaining healthy relationships with family, friends, and/or work colleagues. Wellness coaching can help individuals deal with this added level of stress and related challenges.
To be of service during this time, Bastyr University Clinic in California is offering online Wellness Coaching free of charge. A $5-$20 donation to the University is requested, though no one will be turned away during this time.
The Bastyr University Clinic is ideally suited to provide short-term wellness coaching via online video meetings. A Bastyr clinical faculty member oversees the wellness coaching sessions and supervises the student coaches. Sessions are 45 minutes long and held as a video visit. The sessions are typically once a week for no more than ten weeks.
Wellness coaches can help support the following goals:
Dealing with stress related to COVID-19
Enhancing mindfulness practices
Creating healthy self-care practices while staying home
Improving relationships and social connection
Please note that coaching sessions do not treat mental health disorders, illnesses, or provide mental health counseling.
