SHS 320 - Health Coaching


(5-0-5)
(Prerequisite: PSY 101 )
Health coaching may be one of the most effective, innovative models today in preventive healthcare and wellness. Students in this class will be exposed to the principles of health coaching, incorporating health education and risk management. Students will learn how to provide a behavioral framework for lifestyle changes of their clients that will reduce the clients’ risk of chronic disease. Emphasis in this class will be on the how rather than the why of changing behavior. Finally, students will learn to design a health maintenance plan (health promotion plan) targeted to their client’s personal health behaviors and risk factors.
