Michelle Yandle & Dr Cliff Harvey
Cliff and Michelle are considered two of New Zealand's leading forces in health coaching education. Michelle has been a leading light in health coaching in Aotearoa for many years and is the education lead for the Holistic Performance Institute's health coaching faculty. On the other hand, Cliff was initiallydismissive of health coaching because many 'health coaches' he saw in the industry were acting outside of their scope of practice... It wasn't until Michelle introduced ACTUAL health coaching to him that he realised those coaches were not health coaches at all! He went on to study health coaching in client practice, realising that it is a powerful and client-centered approach to health care and can stand on its own merits AND be part of the toolkit for any practitioner to improve their clinical efficacy. Cliff is now a board member of the Health Coaches Association for Australia and New Zealand.
