Wellbeing Coaches was founded by certified coach Victoria Craze out of her passion for coaching and her desire to give people the ability to connect with highly-qualified, professional coaching. Frustrated with all of the quick-fix, 10-minute check-in coaching programs and computer/analytical/analogue coaching programs, Victoria decided to build Wellbeing Coaches where certified coaches offer one-
on-one coaching experiences to clients. These highly-credentialed coaches work in partnership with clients to dive deep and develop the tools to achieve happiness throughout their lives. As the concept of Wellbeing Coaches began to take shape, Victoria reached out to Dr. Janis DiMonaco, Founder, President and CEO of HMC HealthWorks, a company that specializes in wellness, mental health, and chronic disease management and has worked to reduce the healthcare spend for organizations by improving the health and quality of life of employees for nearly 40 years. A partnership between Wellbeing Coaches and HMC HealthWorks was the clear next step, and Janis joined Victoria as a Wellbeing Coaches Founder. Bringing together certified coaches with HMC HealthWorks’ employer clients provides more avenues to deliver quality coaching to people who need it. We Help You Live Your Best Life

The company specializes in wellness, mental health and chronic disease management and aims to reduce the healthcare spend for organizations by improving the health and quality of life of the people the organizations employ. With a PhD in psychology and as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, Dr. DiMonaco offers the following sentiment.
“Best practices by experienced credentialed coaches are essential for any coaching program,” she said. "You can achieve success when you are taking action-oriented steps to change behaviors one step at a time. We want people to be happy and healthy for the long term." She also leads a very active and healthy lifestyle and believes specific, measurable goals set over a period of time create winning results.
“Begin your own journey today to achieve the goals you want for your life,” she added. “With the help of a professional coach, you can do it.”
Victoria Craze – Wellcoaches Certified Health and Wellness Coach
A native Californian, Victoria Craze grew up being very health conscious.
“I had an Italian grandmother who would send me to school with freshly-steamed artichokes,” Victoria explained. “Organic food was a way of life for me. The early lessons I learned and the way I live my life now by making wise choices in how I eat, exercise and create balance in my life appear as guiding concepts within our program.”
Frustrated by the quick-fix and ineffective coaching programs available to individuals, she built an interactive, professional coaching program using the principles from her coaching certification at Wellcoaches.
“Coaching is a unique and trusted partnership between a client and a coach,” Victoria added. “Motivation, vision definition, and SMART goal set up begin the process. We also discuss barriers and challenges, and the development of a plan to overcome them. Each relationship is built on shared accountability – from the coach to the client and from the client to himself or herself as well as to the coach.”
Victoria is also Certified Health and Wellness Coach and knows how successful the coaching process can be for individuals.
“A coach’s role as a behavior change expert is to provide you with experiences that build your beliefs into your ability to accomplish your goals,” she added. “When you work with a coach to identify what you need to do, your goals are transformed into action—and your best self becomes attainable.”
