Health coaching helps adults make sustainable changes to improve health and wellbeing. Our Health and Wellbeing Coaches listen closely, ask the right questions, and use evidence-based techniques to help you set goals and build confidence to change behaviours. The service covers areas including motivation, stress management, self-worth, healthy eating, physical activity, sleep, and managing long-term conditions, with a focus on practical steps you can take in daily life. Sessions are designed to be non-judgemental and collaborative, helping you find your own solutions rather than telling you what to do. A typical pathway involves an initial assessment with your Health and Wellbeing Coach, followed by monthly sessions for up to six visits, delivered in a format that suits you (face-to-face at your GP practice, at a community space near you, or via video or phone). The approach emphasises patient-centred care and personalised plans to support healthier choices, safer weight management, better blood sugar control where relevant, and improved overall wellbeing. The service is part of Sutton Primary Care Networks’ Wellbeing Hub, working in partnership with NHS and local organisations. What you can expect includes practical goal setting, skill-building, and ongoing motivation. Cost information is not stated on the website.
