What is a Cancer Coach, exactly?
Cancer coaching provides upmost personal client support with a certified trained professional, providing support, guidance, and viable resources for individuals going through or have gone through cancer treatments.

Think of your cancer/fitness coach as your favorite cheerleader with accountability of your set goals that leads to your transformation with stage of change thru motivational interviewing, narrative & cognitive theories, and personalized strategies for your physical, emotional, mental & physical well-being.
A Cancer Exercise Specialist (CES) is certified not only as a Personal Trainer (PT) but also in specifics for cancer survivors.

A cancer coach is your advocate for overall support for better health & recovery as you find your New Normal during this most difficult time, whether it be during a cancer diagnosis, during cancer treatment, post-cancer, or even as a caregiver. Your cancer coach is simply, yet deeply connected as your mentor with experience first-hand, being cancer survivor to cancer survivor, giving you tools to become your best, while allowing you to be in charge of the new journey into the new you. Cancer coaching guides you to re-find yourself with stage of change transformation and personal fitness & health goals, guiding you to even explore and discover yourself to a better you in, thru and after this challenging journey of a cancer diagnosis & recovery. Cancer coaching uses evidence based methods and resources, helping you restore the best you.
Cancer Coaching is not:
NOT a Doctor/Physical Therapist
Cancer coaches are not in the medical practice in any way, shape or form, nor any claim to be. Cancer coaches do work with your doctor(s) with your authorized approval to obtain any pre-health screening and/or doctor clearance to know your risk factors & exercise participation, all tailored to fit your exercise goals and safety (some exclusions apply for simple coaching).
NOT a Nutritionist
Cancer coaches are not certified nutrionists of any kind; however, basic nutrition is covered such as reading nutrition labels and offering reliable & evidence based resources to refer clients to. In some cases, clients may seek a referral to a RD or RN.
NOT a Psychologist
Cancer coaches are by no means claiming to be any form of a phychiatrist or any mental health field. In some cases, mental health practitoners are referred to clients as needed per clients request and agreement.
