"[Libby's health coaching] approach takes me forward and gave me tools to get there. I felt like a small pebble that grew into a large boulder; solid, stable and sure of myself." -51 y.o. female

"I am a healthy, middle-aged woman and know that heading into my next decades I need to make my health a priority. The sessions helped cement my commitment and provide accountability for the changes I want to make for my life long term." -52 y.o. female

"Coaching sessions have been a wonderful opportunity to speak my thoughts without judgement and productively work on some of these things with someone who could give me objective input, ask questions I may not have asked myself, validate areas or thoughts I was feeling insecure about, question my own narrative when appropriate and hold me accountable for following through on my goals." -43 y.o. female

"There is something so simple and beautiful about someone giving you the space to be you, while helping you pinpoint and focus on your own priorities and goals. [Libby] has such a calm, embracing and inviting demeanor that encourages open dialogue and made me want to live up to the commitments I made both to myself and to you." -43 y.o. female

 "Libby helped me realize that I was seeing my body as something that needed to be fixed. She helped me reframe my mindset so I was able to commit to a yoga routine that nourished my mind, body, and spirit. I feel so much more in-tune with my body and accepting of my appearance. I also learned about what aspects of my life either give me energy or drain me. Now I am so much more intentional with how I spend my time!" -23 y.o. female

Lifestyle Health

Libby Pasquariello | MSN/ED, RN, HWNC-BC

A Lifestyle Health Nurse, also known as a Nurse Health Coach or Lifestyle Medicine Nurse, is a registered nurse dedicated to helping patients prevent, manage, and even reverse chronic diseases through lifestyle changes. By focusing on nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress management, and substance avoidance, these nurses empower individuals to make sustainable health choices. They assess needs, provide education, and develop personalized action plans to guide patients toward healthier habits. Working as part of a multidisciplinary team, Lifestyle Health Nurses utilize their clinical expertise and excellent communication skills to support long-term wellness goals.


Scope of Practice:


Assessment:

Evaluate a patient’s lifestyle—including diet, exercise, and sleep—to identify areas for improvement.


Health Education & Counseling:

Offer guidance on making healthier choices, such as creating meal plans or stress reduction strategies.


Goal Setting:

Work collaboratively with patients to establish achievable, actionable health goals.


Care Coordination:

Partner with other healthcare providers to ensure the safety and effectiveness of each patient’s lifestyle plan.


Chronic Disease Management:

Assist patients in managing conditions like type 2 diabetes and heart disease through lifestyle modifications.


Accountability & Support:

Provide ongoing follow-up to monitor progress, offer encouragement, and maintain motivation.

  • Lifestyle Health Assessment

    Think of the Lifestyle Health Assessment as a routine check-up—like your annual dental cleaning, eye exam, or physical. Designed to be a proactive touchpoint, this service helps you stay on track with your health and wellness goals without the need for ongoing coaching, unless you choose to integrate it.


    During this 50-minute session, we’ll review your current lifestyle, habits, and progress. Prior to your appointment, you’ll complete a self-assessment to evaluate areas like nutrition, activity, sleep, and stress. I’ll review your responses and prepare a personalized report to discuss during our session.


    The goal is to create a consistent, sustainable routine of self-coaching and peer support. These assessments occur every 3 to 6 months, giving you regular opportunities to reflect, adjust, and reinforce positive habits.

Libby Pasquariello

MSN/ED, RN, HWNC-BC


Libby Pasquariello, MSN/ED, RN, HWNC-BC, is a health coach, educator, and patient advocate.  A registered nurse for twenty years now, she spent the first ten of those working with adult clients in mental health care settings.  During this time, she experienced the beauty of nursing through the interpersonal connections made with clients and families, but she also recognized the limits of the health care system.  She returned to complete graduate education as a nurse educator and has spent the last decade teaching in higher education.  After earning certification as a health coach nurse, now she aims to connect with individuals and small groups seeking to improve their overall wellness and quality of life.  She believes that illness and wellness lie on a spectrum and absence of illness does not always mean wellness.  There is a gap between the care provided by the traditional health care system and people’s daily lifestyles and this is where health coaching with a nurse can provide a bridge. 


 The Quiet Cornerstones of Well-Being:  Libby believes stress relief and the power of rest are undervalued in today’s society, resulting in a culture that celebrates busyness over quality of life.  She believes finding joy and cultivating a sense of playful curiosity about life are tangible skills for anyone seeking to improve their overall wellbeing and quality of life.  And she believes YOU should be the one to define what wellness looks like for you.


She is excited to work with…

Individuals who are ready, motivated, and seeking 1:1 support for lifestyle change.

Small groups looking for wellness education and support through shared accountability.

Companies seeking to bring a culture of mindfulness and wellbeing into their workplaces.
