What Is a Health & Wellbeing Coach?

A Health & Wellbeing Coach is a trained, non-clinical professional who supports individuals to improve their physical and emotional health through structured behaviour change.

They work in partnership with clients — helping them clarify goals, build motivation, overcome barriers and turn intention into sustainable action.

In the UK, Health & Wellbeing Coaches are increasingly embedded within NHS Primary Care Networks, private practice and corporate wellbeing settings, supporting people to manage stress, lifestyle-related conditions and long-term health challenges.

Many people know what they “should” be doing for their health. The difficulty lies in maintaining it.

Health & Wellbeing Coaches are trained to bridge this gap. Using evidence-based coaching frameworks and techniques, they help clients strengthen confidence, build accountability and create realistic action plans that fit their lives.

Rather than giving instructions, they facilitate clarity — enabling clients to take ownership of their own wellbeing.

Health & Wellbeing Coaching looks at the whole person. This can include:

  • Physical health: nutrition, movement and sleep
  • Mental and emotional wellbeing: stress, resilience, confidence
  • Lifestyle habits: routines, boundaries and behaviour patterns

Coaches operate within clear ethical boundaries. They do not replace medical professionals, but often complement healthcare by supporting long-term lifestyle change and self-management.

What You’ll Learn

Module One

The Role of a Health and Wellbeing Coach

This module introduces the core principles of professional health and wellbeing coaching. You’ll explore how wellbeing is defined — from philosophical roots to modern perspectives — and why balance matters.
We’ll clarify the difference between wellness and wellbeing, outline your role and responsibilities as a coach, and examine client needs and readiness for change.

Module Two

Coaching Skills

This module develops the essential skills every effective coach needs. You’ll learn how to build rapport and emotional connection, strengthen your communication, and develop genuine, focused listening.
You’ll also practise asking thoughtful, insight-driven questions that help clients reflect, clarify and move forward with purpose.

Module Three

Coaching Models

This module introduces the core frameworks that shape effective coaching sessions. You’ll learn how to apply the GROW model to structure conversations with clarity — from setting meaningful goals and exploring current reality, to generating options and establishing clear action.
We’ll also introduce motivational interviewing techniques and explore the psychology of procrastination and persistence, helping you guide clients beyond insight into sustained follow-through.

Module Four

Emotional Health, Habits and Behaviour

This module explores how emotions and habits shape wellbeing. You’ll examine the role of the emotional brain, understand core emotions and their impact, and learn how to work constructively with emotional patterns in coaching.
We’ll also explore the science of habits and practical behaviour change strategies, equipping you to help clients create sustainable change rather than short-term motivation.

Module Five

Managing Stress

This module explores how the nervous system influences stress, behaviour and overall wellbeing. You’ll learn to recognise the signs of stress in clients, understand the role of the vagus nerve and nervous system regulation, and explore how polyvagal theory can inform coaching conversations.
We’ll also examine the characteristics of stress resilience, introduce practical stress-management frameworks, and look at how reflective tools such as journaling can support personal development and emotional regulation.

Module Six

Coping + Food Relationship + Movement

This module examines coping strategies, emotional eating and movement as key influences on wellbeing. You’ll explore unhelpful coping patterns, the six stages of change, and the role of motivation, triggers and self-sabotage.
We’ll clarify your scope of practice around food and nutrition, introduce mindful approaches to eating, and consider how movement can support sustainable lifestyle change.

Module Seven

Neuroplasticity + Meditation + Breath

This module explores how the brain adapts and how practices such as meditation and breathwork can enhance wellbeing. You’ll examine neuroplasticity, understand brainwave states, and be introduced to different meditation approaches, including focused attention and open monitoring.
We’ll clarify your scope of practice when using meditation as a Health & Wellbeing Coach, explore how to lead simple sessions, and consider the role of effective breathing in supporting regulation and resilience.

Module Eight

Self-Care and Self-Love

This module explores how to build sustainable self-care practices and develop a healthier relationship with yourself. You’ll examine concepts such as hedonic adaptation, common obstacles to self-care, and how identity shapes behaviour.
You’ll learn how to create realistic self-care practices that last, cultivate self-compassion and self-respect, and consider the role of your home environment in supporting wellbeing.

Module Nine

Business Boundaries + Ethics

This module covers the boundaries that ensure safe, professional coaching practice. You’ll explore boundary setting, confidentiality, safeguarding and cultural sensitivity, alongside the realities of managing time, cancellations, fees and professional conduct.
We’ll also look at emotional involvement, your energy and fitness to practise, and the importance of supervision and ongoing professional development — all grounded within a clear code of ethics.

Module Ten

Getting Your Coaching Practice Organised

This module focuses on the practical steps involved in setting up and running a professional coaching practice. You’ll define your ideal client, shape your authentic coaching story, and design services that reflect your strengths and values.
We’ll cover how to structure effective discovery calls, create a professional welcome pack, support client progress between sessions, and manage essential documentation with clarity and confidence.

Module Eleven

Setting You Up For Success

This final module helps you strengthen your confidence and address internal barriers that can hold you back as a coach. You’ll focus on practical preparation, clarify your professional manifesto, and explore how to recognise and move through limiting beliefs and resistance.
We’ll also examine your relationship with money and value, helping you step forward with greater conviction in your work and your path.

Bonus Business Modules

Setting up a Business

You’ll also receive over six hours of additional video content designed to support the launch of your coaching practice.
These sessions cover practical essentials including insurance requirements, GDPR and data protection, effective marketing strategies, website creation and design considerations, and guidance on developing a clear, realistic business plan for health and wellbeing coaching.

Meet your Coach Trainer

Hello, I’m Dr Claire Maguire…

I’ve been working in the field of health and wellbeing for over a decade, and during that time I’ve trained and mentored hundreds of coaches, therapists and professionals who felt called to support others properly.

What I care about most is helping people understand what really drives behaviour, stress, motivation and change — and teaching coaches how to hold that work responsibly.

Over the years, I’ve run retreats, built and led a wellbeing centre, developed accredited training programmes, and supported clients through everything from burnout and anxiety to major life transitions.

During the 5-day live training, I’ll be teaching you not just the frameworks — but how to think like a coach, how to listen deeply, and how to build a practice that is both grounded and professional.

A Week You Won’t Want to End

This training is immersive, and something happens when a small group of people commit to learning together for five full days.

You practise together, listen to each other’s stories and witness one another stepping outside of their comfort zones, and very quickly, it stops feeling like a course and starts feeling like a shared experience.

You arrive as individuals but leave as colleagues and often, as friends.
