Frequently Asked Questions

Functional Medicine Health Coaching is a highly personalized and integrative approach to healthcare that involves understanding the prevention, root causes, and management of health conditions and challenges.

Because of the quality and amount of time we work with each client, Guided Wellness provides a level of accountability, which helps people improve and stay on track with a healthier lifestyle.

Our multi-faceted approach addresses nutrition, sleep, movement, stress, the mind-body connection, and more. At Guided Wellness, our ultimate goal is to heal disease and promote a healthy life.

Yes; we are educated on a wide range of health conditions and concerns.

Each condition or concern will be treated individually, and we'll work with you to examine several factors, including lifestyle, nutrition, medication, and more. We'll help establish a customized, comprehensive plan with plenty of accountability and support along the way!

We work with clients worldwide using Zoom. In-person appointments are also available upon request in our office, located in the Sacramento, CA region.

After your free Initial Consultation, we'll proceed with 4 Wellness Sessions, which are 45 minutes each.

After that, you can continue on with another 4 Wellness Sessions, or schedule shorter, as-needed 20-minute Refresher Sessions at your convenience.

During your free 20-minute Initial Consultation, we'll discuss your health concerns, what you'd like to focus on, and what to expect from our practice. If we mutually agree to move forward, you'll receive further instructions on how to pay for and schedule your 4 Wellness Sessions.

As with all coaching practices, we cannot guarantee results, but by experience, we know that each client's results are usually proportional to the amount of effort applied. Each client's needs and coaching plan will vary; we "meet" each person where they are and create a customized plan for optimal health. Some clients find benefit with 4 or 8 Wellness Sessions, plus Refresher Sessions as needed. Others may need or prefer a longer-term strategy and greatly benefit from the support and accountability provided by Guided Wellness.

Our 20-minute Initial Consultation is free! Per-session pricing is as follows:

• 50 minutes: $120

• 30 minutes: $70

• 20 minute Refresher sessions for established clients: $50

Please check with your insurance provider. Upon payment for Wellness or Refresher Sessions, you'll receive a receipt via email, which you may submit to your insurance if allowed. (Guided Wellness does not submit claims for clients.)

Due to the nature of our service, we do not offer refunds, including for unused sessions.
