Scope of Services
Integrative Health and Wellness Coaching provides health and wellness coaching services, which may include one-to-one sessions, group programs, online courses, and written resources. Coaching is designed to support you in building sustainable habits and reaching your personal wellness goals.
The scope of each engagement will be agreed upon at the start of your program. Any significant changes to the scope will be discussed and confirmed in writing.
Coaching & medical care
Your coach holds the NBC-HWC (National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach) credential, awarded by the National Board for Health and Wellness Coaching. This certification means your coach is trained and qualified to work alongside clients who are managing a medical diagnosis, in supporting lifestyle and behavior change, as part of a broader care plan.
What this means for you: If you're living with a chronic condition such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, autoimmune issues, or another diagnosis, your coach can work with you in a way that complements your medical treatment. Coaching focuses on the lifestyle, mindset, and behavior side of your health journey, and is designed to be used alongside, not instead of, your medical care team. That said, coaching remains distinct from medical treatment. Your coach will not diagnose, prescribe, or provide clinical advice. You should always keep your healthcare provider informed of any lifestyle changes you're making, and continue to follow their medical guidance.
Your responsibilities
Coaching works best when both parties show up fully. If you choose to work with Coach Kari, as a client, you agree to: provide honest and accurate information about your health, goals, and lifestyle, and attend sessions on time and prepared to engage. As client you will communicate openly if something isn't working, as your feedback shapes the process. You will take ownership of your choices, actions, and results. If you have a medical diagnosis, keep your healthcare provider informed of any lifestyle changes made during coaching. The client is responsible for booking and attending their appointments within the time frame specified by the package they purchase. Late cancellations (less then 24 hours) will forfeit appointments. Coach and client can agree to terminate their agreement and un-used appointments will be refunded on a pro-rated scale. The coach-client relationship is further defined and agreed upon at the time of booking an appointment or package.
Confidentiality, privacy & HIPAA
Your privacy is taken seriously. This practice operates in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), which sets the standard for protecting sensitive health information in the United States. What you share in coaching stays in coaching. Your coach will not disclose personal or health information to any third party without your explicit written consent. There are limited exceptions where disclosure may be required by law, for example, if there is a risk of serious harm to yourself or others. In such cases, your coach will act in accordance with their professional and legal obligations. Your health information is stored and handled securely in line with HIPAA standards. We use HIPAA-compliant tools and platforms for communication and record-keeping. You have the right to request access to your records at any time. We do not sell or share your data with third parties for marketing purposes. Your personal data is also handled in line with our Privacy Policy.
Limitation of liability
You participate in coaching voluntarily and acknowledge that results are not guaranteed. Your coach provides guidance and support, but the responsibility for your choices and outcomes rests with you. Kari Baigrie Wellness Integrative Health and Wellness Coaching shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, or consequential loss arising from the coaching relationship or use of this website, including, but not limited to physical, psychological, or financial outcomes. Our total liability in any circumstance shall not exceed the amount paid for the specific services in question.
