Remote Counseling

Nutri-care Clinical Trial

Remote Delivery

Through advanced and specific training in communication and counseling via remote means, the individualized support provided through HOPE Lab contains all the necessary elements provided by in-person counseling. Remote delivery allows for the provision of targeted feedback that reinforces sustained behavior change in a manner that can conveniently fit into participants’ lives.

Tailored Approach

Individualized counseling enables tailoring information delivery to the unique needs of each cohort while assisting individuals in overcoming barriers to optimizing their adherence to evidence-based guidelines. In the spirit of Motivational Interviewing, counseling sessions are participant-driven and counselor-supported as opposed to more commonly utilized approaches in the which the counselor takes the lead.

Specialized Training

Individualized counseling provided through HOPE Lab is delivered by Registered Dietitians after advanced training in Motivational Interviewing, oncology nutrition, physical activity counseling, and the theoretical foundations of behavior change. Unlike health coaches, our Registered Dietitians are licensed to provide specialized medical nutrition therapy and trained in advanced counseling specific to the unique health demands throughout the cancer continuum and for chronic disease prevention.

Thanks to everyone for making this a study we all could enjoy and benefit from. I will miss the group and our meetings. Even though I didn't know everyone personally I knew that they understood what I had been through and the challenges that I may face in the future.

I am loving the program! Ashlea has helped me so much with breaking my challenges down into smaller goals. I joined a cheap gym with the plans to go 3x a week for 45 minutes to lift weights. Usually I feel like I need to go everyday or do all the classes so I end up not joining at all. This was a breakthrough to me.

“This has been such an amazing and positive experience for me, I can't begin to express how deep my thanks goes. I believe that I have formed new life long habits that will help me for the rest of my days.”
