Full Service Health Coaching

Open Source Wellness partners with healthcare providers, payers, supportive housing and community based organizations to improve health and well-being outcomes, increase engagement and lower total cost of care for their patients and community members.

We provide full service support that enables clinicians, social workers and other allied staff to work at the top of their license while knowing their patients and community members are receiving engaging, high quality health coaching to reach their individual health goals.

“OSW is doing what primary care physicians wish we had the time to do outside of our traditional 15 minute visits with patients – they address whole patient care and prioritize things like movement, healthy eating, behavioral goals, external stressors, and social network, some of the most important determinants of health! It was truly inspiring to see how my patients gained self-efficacy and increased self-worth during their participation in OSW, and I have taken many of the pearls and strategies from the OSW group sessions and incorporated them into my own counseling with patients. When so many of us were burnt out during the pandemic, it was truly refreshing and inspiring to see how OSW was able to pull together a group of patients from disparate backgrounds (even virtually!) and help them achieve their goals of better health. I left each zoom session more energized and invigorated to help my own patients the rest of the day!”

“Having one afternoon a week where I do not have a conventional clinic has been instrumental for preventing burnout. It really helps break up my week. As a full-time provider, getting the chance to deliver patient care in such a dynamic fashion also provides me with more energy the other days of the week. Working with OSW has been a fantastic way for me to build meaningful relationships with patients that otherwise could not happen during the time constraints of traditional clinic visits. It offers me a chance to work with patients to really get at the underlying factors that may be affecting their health and wellbeing.”
