WHAT BRINGS YOU TO COACHING?
HOW DOES COACHING WORK?
Taking care of your physical and mental health is essential for a long and fulfilling life. It's about more than just exercising and eating well. Healthy habits can lead to better sleep, increased productivity, and a more prosperous life. Despite this understanding, the U.S. faces significant challenges with the overall health of its population. Several proactive steps can improve your overall health. Seeking guidance from a trained professional can significantly enhance your mental, physical, and emotional well-being in the long term. It is essential to recognize that we all require assistance at times, which is why considering the support and expertise of a professionally trained health coach is worth considering.

When one aspect of your life is unbalanced, it can domino effect on other areas. For instance, a lack of regular physical activity can lead to stress, poor dietary habits, and difficulty getting enough sleep. When all these factors come together, it can feel overwhelming. This is where coaching can be beneficial.
Ultimately, coaching aims not to overhaul your life or impose a strict regimen.
Instead, it's about helping you overcome the initial challenges of adopting a healthier lifestyle and empowering you to make gradual yet significant changes over time.
Together, we will establish goals based on your current position in your journey.
These goals will guide you toward a healthier lifestyle rather than being imposed upon you. Many overwhelmed people find themselves stuck and need help identifying what keeps them from reaching their goals. I'm here to offer fresh perspectives and help you recognize the barriers that may be difficult to see. The main aim of coaching is to eliminate obstacles and conquer challenges. Is coaching right for you?
Ask yourself the following questions, and take the time to think about your answers:
​
-
Are you struggling to identify what is causing you stress?
-
Do you need help to stay committed to your goals?
-
Do you frequently feel depressed, discouraged, or apathetic?
-
What’s preventing you from beginning your health journey?
-
Do you have someone to support you?
​
There are many reasons why someone may seek the assistance of a certified health coach. However, there’s only one crucial factor: guidance to overcome the obstacles and achieve optimal health. Regardless of your aim, I'm committed to helping you until we reach the desired outcome. Let's start this transformative journey together!

This was my first coaching experience outside of athletics and I found it to be highly instrumental in my personal growth and achievement of goals, especially since trying other methods was not previously successful! Tommy was well-educated, and empathetic, and was always able to help me find a realistic solution despite barriers that were presented. He was very supportive of my work with a personal trainer while also offering his insights and "things to think about" - which is typically what I went with!
I felt that he was very attuned to how I approach things and leaned into that instead of putting pressure on me to make needless adjustments - this made me trust him as we continued our work together. He maintained a good humor through it all and he taught me to redefine how I approach my goals. Mostly, he taught me how to always be gentle with myself and that progress is always progress, even if you have to change course. I think there are people who move into coaching/helping professions based on interest and those who are naturally designed to do this work, and I think coaching is an innate ability of Tommy's.
It's because of the above, that I recommend Tommy to everyone that is considering coaching and I will absolutely return to him with future goals.

Before having a health coach, I set many goals but never achieved them. It is with immense gratitude that I write this testimonial for Tommy, whom I’ve had the pleasure of working with weekly for over a year. From the very beginning, Tommy’s guidance and support have been instrumental in helping me set and achieve fitness and nutrition goals I set out for myself including long running events, good mobility, better lifting in the gym, an improved diet, and even a triathlon.
Under Tommy's expert coaching, I successfully completed several long running events, which were milestones I had been working towards for a while. His training methods not only improved my stamina but also enhanced my flexibility and helped me maintain healthy joints, making every stride smoother and more comfortable.
My weekly meetings with Tommy are a highlight of my routine. He is an excellent listener, always attentive to my needs and concerns. The resources he provides are high quality references that I frequently use. Tommy’s sustainable philosophy towards coaching makes reaching goals enjoyable. He emphasizes patience and encouragement, ensuring that the journey is just as rewarding as the destination.
A helpful part of our work together, which was new to me, is tracking what foods I’m eating. This practice has empowered me to feel my best, aligning my nutrition with my fitness regime seamlessly. Tommy’s approach is never about pressure but about making steady progress, fostering a sense of accomplishment and well-being. Make sure to ask about his “Healthy Foundation” approach! It’s something I love talking about with anyone looking to be healthier!
Tommy's dedication and expertise have truly transformed my fitness journey. He has not only helped me achieve my goals but also instilled a lifelong appreciation for health and wellness. I wholeheartedly recommend Tommy to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, supportive, and inspiring health coach.

Tommy has a positive, enthusiastic energy which he brings to every session. I told him about my struggles with ADHD symptoms and he understood them immediately and came up with interesting, unique solutions I hadn't thought of. I love using tools to help bridge my gaps and Tommy introduced me to many tools so that I could see which ones worked best for me. If you are looking for someone who is enthusiastic, solution oriented as well as empathetic, Tommy is the coach for you!
