See my latest The Empowered Patient column in the October 15th issue of MPNforum. MPNforum October 15, 2012 - The Empowered Patient.
In the column, I share my personal experience with health coaching as well as my reflections about the qualities to look for in a coach. In sum, "Great coaches empower us by helping us to build the self-monitoring, self-assessment and problem-solving skills that we need to achieve long term success."
