The most frustrating part of
being a coach? Â
Not knowing what to do for clients who:
Can't seem to stick to the plan no matter what solution you give them, are stuck in the all-or-nothing thinking trap, constantly self-sabotage, and struggle with consistency and motivation
Â
With clients like this, it can feel like your hands are tied...
Imagine what it would feel like to get excited to help these seemingly "uncoachable" clients?
And feel CONFIDENT that you have the tools to help them see results that last?
Â
 Here's the truth:Â
Itâs not your nutrition knowledge thatâs missing.
(Understanding how metabolism works doesnât matter if your clients canât even follow through on the most basic nutrition advice)
  Itâs not how you develop your training programs.
  (Movement pattern selection and progressive overload doesnât matter if your clients canât even get to the gym consistently)
Your health and fitness education never taught you how to help clients stick to the plan and stay motivated.
â...I realized there was a lot I was missing.â
âIâd always worked with clients on âmindsetâ (or so I thought...), but throughout HMCC I realized there was a lot I was missing. Even though I claimed to help clients with mindset, I was still often engaging my ârighting reflexâ rather than asking the right questions to dig deeper.â

Health Mindset Coaching Certification is recognized by the National Academy of Sports Medicine, the National Board of Health and Wellness Coaches, the American College of Sports Medicine, National Association of Nutrition Professionals, Athletics and Fitness Association of America, and the American Council on Exercise as an Approved Continuing Education Provider.
Health Mindset Coaching Certification awards 22.75 CPEUs in accordance with the Commission on Dietetic Registrationâs CPEU Prior Approval Program.
The most important thing for clients to be successful has nothing to do with nutrition and exercise because it has everything to do with mindset and behavior change strategies.
Your clients already know they need to make healthier food choices and move their bodies more.
And they have ChatGPT to calculate their macros and create a training program. They hired you because they need someone to help them stay motivated and follow through.
Because knowing better doesnât change behavior.
đŞ
Thatâs why knowing how many grams of protein to eat doesnât help your client who stress-eats every time work gets overwhelming.
đ
Itâs why a perfectly periodized training plan doesnât help your client who falls off every time motivation dips.
đ
Itâs whyâinstead of using the knowledge you already have-you spend more time chasing clients down on check-in day and practically begging them to be consistent with the most basic things.
đĽ
Even the most experienced, educated coaches still struggle with clients who self-sabotage and canât stay consistent.
Youâre missing the client psychology piece.
Your clients know what they should be doing. They even WANT to do it. HMCC gives you proven, evidence-based tools to help them work through what theyâre actually struggling with so they can actually stay on track and see results.

How to know if HMCC is right for youđ
Â
HMCCÂ ISÂ for you if:
â You're a current or aspiring health, wellness, or fitness professional (coach, trainer, dietitian, physical therapist, or any other pro who helps clients or patients change their habits and behavior).
â You've had clients who know exactly what to do, but still don't follow through. And you don't have a real answer for why.
â You want to feel confident helping any client, even the ones other coaches would call 'uncoachable.'
â You care a lot about your clients and are passionate about your work, but experience self-doubt when coaching feels harder than it should.
â You donât want to get lumped in with all the âmindset coachesâ out there, you want to be a certified mindset and health behavior change coach.
And let me guess...
You love the science of nutrition and training
You know how to deliver nutrition and/or training plans
You can help someone with weight loss, health, or fitness goals
But youâve noticed thatâs not enough to help your clients stay consistent and follow through week after week, let alone actually achieve lasting results.
Â
Everyone already knows they should eat healthy, exercise and take care of themselves yet, so few people actually do it. Why? Theyâre missing the mindset and psychological foundation that makes behavior change actually stick.
HMCC was created in 2020, since then additions have been added and adjustments have been made to the original program, but this time... it's been FULLY revamped.
As a Fall 2026 student, you'll be one of the first to experience the new and improved HMCC!
After 6 years of experience working with 1000 students, the entire course has received a massive glow up, including brand new training modules, more step-by-step coaching strategies, and some *new* exciting additions to guarantee that you have everything you need to easily apply the HMCC content to your coaching đđ
*NEW* OFFICE HOURS
We know you're BUSY and timezones can make it hard to attend our weekly live discussion calls held every Wednesday during the program. So we've added additional office hour calls with our expert coaching team to provide you with more opportunity to get personalized support with your coaching, business and client cases.
*NEW* LISTEN ON-THE-GO MODULES
All of the video modules in HMCC now come with additional "private podcast" style, audio-only versions so you can fit your learning into your day, wherever you are!
*NEW* CLIENT + COACH WORKSHEETS
The original HMCC program included worksheets to use with your clients... now, we've made them even more effective and added MORE. These are designed to be given directly to your clients to support their mindset and follow-through. You'll also get interpretation guides and step-by-step strategies to follow based on the responses you get from your clients on these worksheets.
*NEW* CHEAT SHEETS
It's never been easier to master behavior change and mindset coaching with these cheat sheets!
What would becoming aÂ
Health Mindset Certified Coach do for you??
...I've seen nothing but an uptick and growth in my own business and in my own mindset...
If you're on the fence, again, I've invested in many certification programs, and mentorship programs, and coaching programs, but nothing that I've ever done has been as hands-on, informative, but also directly applicable to my coaching clientele. So I've seen nothing but an uptick and growth in my own business and in my own mindset...
â Sarah Pelc Graca, HMCC Grad
 "Would you do it again? Today?"
We asked HMCC grads this question, and here's what they said đ
The Health Mindset Coaching Certification is guaranteed to help you increase client adherence, retention and success.
(...and doing that doesnât only help out your clients; you can expect an increase in your own confidence and your income, too!)
Â
If you make it through the program and can prove that youâve successfully applied your new skills and knowledge to your coaching, but your client adherence, retention, and success have not improved within 12 monthsâ Iâll refund you. After 1000 students we've never had to do this once.
So, what exactly is the HMCC Program?
Â
This is not just another online course.
Â
Iâve been through plenty of courses that I didnât enjoy, didnât retain any information from and felt over (or under) whelmed! I created HMCC with this in mind along with my expert-level understanding of human behavior and strategies for the most optimal learning.
HMCC will provide you with thorough (but easy to digest) education, direct client application strategies, and LIVE support every week.
Youâll be walking away with more than just knowledge.
Youâll graduate with tangible action steps you can apply to your coaching that will help your clients work through mindset barriers and self sabotaging behaviors that are currently keep them from reaching their goalsâŚ
âŚand of course, that means increased client retention, more profitable coaching, and less frustration for you!

MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Kasey Jo Orvidas, Ph.D.
This missing piece is exactly why founder, Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas, created The Health Mindset Coaching Certification in the first place.
Dr. Kasey Jo holds a doctorate in psychology and spent years researching health behavior change and mindset science. Sheâs been in the health and fitness coaching space since 2016, and is the head instructor at HMCC.
As a fitness and nutrition coach and PhD student, Dr. Kasey Jo was able to apply her research and graduate studies directly with her clients in real-time. She quickly realized that the most important thing for clients to be successful had nothing to do with nutrition and exercise, but everything to do with mindset and behavior change strategies.
Traditional education and certifications werenât giving health and fitness professionals the tools they actually needed to be successful.
After completing her PhD, Dr. Kasey Jo developed HMCC to fill that gap and has since mentored 1000+ coaches worldwide.

GET THE MISSING PIECE. JOIN HMCC TODAY.We honestly have more success stories than we know what to do with...
Hear how so many of our students went from struggling, confused, frustrated, and lost to confident, thriving, booked, and successful.
I now have tools to coach clients
I noticed just running my coaching team... that before HMCC and after HMCC, there is a big difference in their coaching quality and even the results that clients are getting. Now that our coaches are able to go deeper with our clients and support on these deeper mindset issues, our clients are in turn having more significant transformations... I would strongly recommend it for you if you're a coach and you want to help your clients succeed deeper than just giving them a workout plan and macros.
