I had the privilege of working with Karla on a one on one basis with nurse coaching. I was not aware of how this worked and was immediately interested. As I grow older I have suffered from depression. We discussed this along with my need to change my diet and activity to lower both my cholesterol and blood pressure. I used to be very active and the past few years have had some chronic pain that has caused both increases in my levels and depression as a result. These sessions brought me full circle to how one affects the other. The more active I am, the happier I am. We came up with some non-medicated ways for me to deal with my pain, some stress management skills regarding this issue and resources that might be beneficial to me. I have found that using these skills has created a more balanced daily routine for me. I have been more motivated to exercise and move my body more. Karla and I also researched foods and a diet that will help me reach my cholesterol and blood pressure goals. I recently had my cholesterol checked and I am headed in the right direction. This in itself gave me a positive outlook on our coaching and that I am in control. I felt out of control and sorry for myself, but have realized I have more control than I realize.

So I have definitely seen a lot of positives to our coaching and my goals are slowly being reached. I feel motivated to move forward with knowledge that I obtained from coaching. I was forced to learn a lot about myself and realize that I have the ability to make the changes to better my life. I would highly recommend coaching to anyone I know. I like the fact that I was in charge of my sessions and learned to take responsibility for my choices and happiness. J.B.

We all have different journeys through life and different situations.Through my own personal journey, I have realized how important it is to take a holistic approach to my health and wellness. Wellness is not just about managing symptoms, treating with medications, and looking at ourselves from one perspective. Wellness is about taking care of yourself on all levels – mind, body, and spirit. All are intertwined. All affecting one another.

As a nurse coach, I’m passionate about helping others on their own health journeys. As a registered nurse working in the medical field for the past 30 years, I have come to realize how lifestyle changes can benefit in all areas of one’s health. That is when I furthered my education to become Board Certified as a Nurse Coach. Taking care of the core issue instead of turning to medication and surgical interventions can decrease risk and improve outcomes of chronic diseases. Living your most fulfilling life possible is important to us all. I believe that everyone of us has the potential to heal and thrive. I’m committed to helping my clients achieve their health and wellness goals using a holistic approach to be the best overall version of themselves. Take the next step you will thank yourself forever!

Sincerely, Karla Carstens, RN-BSN, NC-BC
