NEW OFFERING 🎉
Individualized Health Coaching!
Rhoads to Independence is excited to announce that we have a new offering that is near and dear to our hearts. We proudly offer individual health coaching for chronically ill clients by a chronically ill and disabled coach! That's right, you get to work with a professional who gets what it is like!
ABOUT OUR COACH:
Janine is a chronically ill and disabled OT. She lives with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, POTS, suspected MCAS, chronic migraine, and more. She is passionate about empowering and meeting the chronically ill population with empathy, understanding, and kindness. She knows how scary it can be to work with health care professionals as a disabled person and prides herself in being a professional in your corner.
She has been coaching in early interventions for 5 years and is working on her positive psychology coaching certifications through her occupational therapy doctorate program. She loves coaching and uses a positive psychology and client-driven approach!
ABOUT COACHING:
Do you tell me what to do?
NOPE! Our coaching relationship is one where we are both equal partners. This means your voice matters just as much or more than the coaches. The idea is the coach is a knowledgeable guide in your own self-discovery.
Is this an occupational therapy service?
Nope. Your coach is a skillful occupational therapist, but these are not OT services. Janine can use her life experience, OT knowledge, and current literature to guide the sessions. When given permission by the client, she can share her expertise and some ideas or knowledge.
How do you deliver the coaching services?
We conduct most of our coaching sessions via Zoom or phone call. We have done coaching sessions in person when it is accessible for both coach and the client.
What's the rate?
Janine offers a sliding scale for coaching services! We are passionate about bringing as much empowerment as we can and are conscientious about how disability impacts all aspects of life, including employment and socioeconomic status.
How do we get started?
Email, text or call us to set up a 15-minute consultation where we will go over some of your questions and see if coaching is right for you.
