Registered Dietitian

Registered Dietitians are learning the Intrinsic Coaching® methodology, expanding their ability to work with the whole person and create healthy results in ways even the best information and advice can't achieve.  Because Intrinsic Coaching® enables people to think better about choices, Registered Dietitians find Intrinsic Coaching® is a more effective, productive, and satisfying way of accomplishing great results for, with, and through people.

Enroll as an individual: To view the schedule and enroll in an Intrinsic Coach® Development Series for Health and Wellness professionals, go to http://www.intrinsiccoach.com/english/enroll/.  New series start almost every week and meet via teleconference for two consecutive hours a week, once a week, for twelve weeks. If you have to miss a session, you can listen to an audio file of your missed session. Upon completion of this Series, you will be able to elicit people's best thinking, including your own, so they and you can accomplish important outcomes. You'll also be able to identify yourself as an Intrinsic Coach®, use the Intrinsic Coach® logo, wear the Intrinsic Coach® pin, have access to the Intrinsic Coach® community, and have a readily available way to develop your coaching in any direction you choose, through www.IntrinsicCoach.com.

Train your staff in Intrinsic Coaching®: We'd be happy to train your entire staff and also talk about creating in house Intrinsic Coach® Development capabilities. To take a first step, contact us for a conversation.


John Gobble, Ph.D., MPH, R.D., L.D., CHES, Owner and Founder of Medical Nutrition Therapy Northwest, Gresham , OR

I have my own private Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) practice and provide MNT using nationally recognized evidence based guidelines as the basis of my curriculum. Most dietitians, including myself, typically provide MNT in the context of a one-on-one interview providing a nutrition assessment and appropriate nutrition education content. The first session lasts 60 to 90 minutes. There may be from 3 to 6 sessions warranted to complete the entire treatment. Unfortunately, most clients rarely return for follow-up sessions. However, since I have initiated an Intrinsic Coaching® strategy for MNT I have clients making commitments to return regularly for up to 6 months.

Melissa Freer-Smith, RD, CD, Outpatient Clinical, Dietitian, Elkhart General Healthcare System, Elkhart, IN

While learning the Intrinsic Coach® approach, I can judge how well I am doing based on how I feel after my appointments. When I am coaching, I feel a strong connection to the other person, and I can see the benefits in them immediately as they expand their own best thinking. I leave the appointment feeling energized. If I revert to my old standard nutrition counseling, I end up doing most of the work; I leave feeling drained and somewhat guilty since I now know I can help maximize my patient's potential through Intrinsic Coaching®. At this stage, it is very important for me to take a minute to remind myself of the core components of Intrinsic Coaching® prior to and sometimes during my appointments so that both my coachee and myself get the most from our time together, and apart.
