About Noelle
Welcome! My name is Noelle (she/her) a.k.a. “Coach Elle Barebones.” I am an enthusiastic performance dietitian-nutritionist and fitness professional combining master-level credentials with over 20 years of experience empowering others to create healthy, active, and sustainable lifestyle behaviors that promote well-being and longevity, prevent disease, and optimize peak performance. I am a licensed Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN/LD) board-certified as a Certified Specialist in Sports Dietetics (CSSD), certified personal trainer (ACSM-CPT), and National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC). My passions are preparing performing arts athletes for physical readiness, coaching others to feel their best, and sparking hope and joy ⚡️⚡️
Approach to care
I offer a holistic “coach approach” of authenticity, non-judgement, empathy, kindness, and mindfulness to empower others along their journeys, by studying coaching psychology and working in a variety of settings including human research labs, hospitals and healthcare clinics, universities, fitness gyms, an employee wellness center, and most recently a performing arts college program. I am highly trained in translating the science of Lifestyle Medicine into actionable steps, utilizing a Shared Decision-Making Process to support client autonomy, build self-efficacy, mobilize internal strengths and engage external resources for sustainable change ♻️
Your first session with Noelle
Prepare to share! I am an active listener seeking to understand your strengths, core values, motivations, and current circumstances. In your first session, we will create a Wellness Vision, long-term yearly goals, short-term monthly goals, and a weekly focus with actions steps pertaining to Hydration, Sleep/Rest, Nourishment, Movement, Stress Regulation, and Social Connection 🫀
