The Center for Wellness Training of Your Health Concierge, Inc., offers wellness trainings for psychologists, social workers, counselors, health educators, and the general public to develop new knowledge and acquire or hone skills related to the practice of prevention and wellness.
Our goal is to promote public health practice grounded in the latest research in health and mental health. Our trainers are at the forefront of research and practice in prevention. Our master trainers include public health professionals with backgrounds in behavior change, coaching, public health, ethics, nursing, psychology, medicine, and social work.
We train leaders who want to improve their ability to use positive approaches to assist people to maintain a state of wellness in their lives. Our approach is motivational. Our trainings are designed to show health professionals how to use best practices from recent research on maintaining or restoring wellness in individuals, workplaces, and communities.
Our training uses a small group, face-to-face approach to improving public health trainees practice and skills, allowing for time to discuss principles of wellness and to practice the skills we teach so that people who attend our trainings leave prepared to work with individuals, in workplaces and community organizations. We have a special emphasis on preventing and postponing chronic conditions in people as well as in helping them plan for how well they want to age.
