[quote=Anonymous]I paid for a few sessions with a health coach for my mom, after she expressed interest. The coach was a neutral party to help my mom identify behaviors and routines to prioritize health and all of the medical advice she had received from from all of the licensed / credentialed / etc etc etc providers. Could I have done that for her? Could she have done that for herself? Intellectually, yes. Emotionally, no. That was about two years ago, and not in the DC area ... but it was money well spent. The person she used was, I think, a LCSW who built up a bit of a specialty in health (but not anything official that I recall). The persons' skill was definitely in being a coach ... she didn't insert any of her own perspective on health but stuck to doctor recommended or common sense. [/quote]
