Face-to-Face Lifestyle Coaching

UCM has joined A Healthier You™ at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas City (Blue KC) in offering face-to-face lifestyle coaching, providing the same motivational interviewing techniques as telephonic coaching in a one-on-one format. Individuals interested in improving overall health and eliminating health risks can benefit from the support and guidance of a lifestyle coach. This lifestyle coaching program is personalized to fit your needs, confidential and conveniently offered at your workplace.

Face-to-Face Coaches:

  • Are available to you on a monthly basis and you can join anytime.
  • Provide 25-minute, face-to-face, private, coaching sessions.
  • Assist you in developing a personalized plan to improve health risks and changing long-held behaviors and habits.
  • Provide an opportunity for support and guidance during initial stages of change - a crucial time in the behavior modification process.
  • Provide ongoing support and assistance to help you meet your identified short and long-term goals.
  • Work with you to address environmental triggers that may interfere with goals and provide strategies to address and avoid those setbacks.
  • Help you identify ways to avoid triggers or develop new responses to triggers.
  • Offer tools, educational materials, and personal assistance in developing a customized wellness plan to help you reach your goals.
