When asked her personal philosophy on weight management and overall wellness, Jonna summarizes, "I believe that life is about balance. No one is perfect all the time, but the healthy behaviors should outweigh the less healthy behaviors. Through positive support, focus on the client's achievements, I strive to help improve self esteem. Through this improved sense of self, a client is able to accomplish more, in more areas of their life, than they ever thought possible."
Jonna loves to cook and to eat, and this passion sparks her strong anti-dieting philosophy. "In balancing life, adding more joy to ones life, increasing physical activity and enjoying good, real food, I believe that everyone can reach their ideal weight - although sometimes it takes uncovering self sabotaging thoughts and behaviors to get there. I listen closely and partner with my clients to provide practical, realistic suggestions and personal, customized solutions to help my clients achieve their goals."
“Effective behavioral interventions have never been needed more to address today’s epidemics of obesity, sedentary lifestyles, and burnout. The fact is that when it comes to helping people make behavior changes, coaching methods work.
