A Health Coach
"We start with basic things like listening skills," says Julie Kosey, Duke's integrative health coaching manager, who also was Kathy Hare's coach. "We teach how to be present with a person, to listen deeply and understand their goals and motivation. We let the client hold the agenda."
Also critical to helping people adapt a healthier lifestyle, says Linda Smith, director of programs for Duke Integrative Medicine, is understanding and appreciating the patient's idea of an ideal lifestyle -- be it walking three miles a day or simply being able to perform basic household chores -- rather than telling the patient to lose 30 pounds or lower his or her cholesterol 50 points.
