Training
Focused on Suicide Prevention and Mental Health Awareness, each training has incredible individual value. When combined, they create a strong network of skills to support people who are experiencing different levels of an emotional challenge or mental health crisis.
Current Training Offerings:
- Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST)
- Compassionate Listening ©
- Mental Health First Aid (MHFA)
- Question Persuade Refer (QPR)
We believe that, as a society, we cannot and should not leave it to just our social workers, therapists and social resource providers to make a difference in someone’s life. Each of us have the ability to make a difference.
Health Coaching
Professionally trained and certified in both Life Coaching and Health Coaching, we help people shed weight and live healthier, without dieting, so they can feel better and have more energy for family, work and all that life throws at them.
Our coaching is a unique combination of teaching you how to eat healthy, incorporate exercise, goal setting and most importantly: develop a healthy mindset, design your environment and take control of your life, rather than letting it control you.
If you want to lose weight and live healthier WITHOUT DIETING… This program is for you!
Workshops
When your motive is to increase self-awareness, gain knowledge, practice new skills with others, improve relationships and/or discover more about leadership without a huge commitment of time and budget – workshops can be great. They are often shorter in duration, easier to fit into work schedules, professional and personal lives, and can still ‘pack quite an impact’.
Examples of some existing workshops are:
- Identify Your Own Resiliency Skills
- Create A Strategy For Your Health, on a Budget
- Explore Personal Values
- Understand What Influences Your Energy
- Navigating Conversations in Conflict
For organizations, we can create a custom-crafted workshop for your unique need(s).

Our Approach
Before we begin our work with you, we take the time to truly understand your needs and expectations, so that we can provide you with the best possible support and go above and beyond.
While we take professionalism seriously, we also recognize that beneath our roles in work and family, we are human beings who crave authentic connections. We strive to be genuine, knowing that we’re not always perfect, and we love to share our sense of humor with you. We may be a bit goofy at times and even a little awkward, but we believe that laughter and lightheartedness can foster meaningful relationships.
We genuinely care about you and value your decision to work with us. We are always open to listening, learning, and growing from every experience we have, because we take our commitment to you seriously.

Jeff Spitzer
Life & Health Coach
Jeff gets you, because he’s like you…
Husband, father and super okay pickleball player who has found a way to balance his sweet tooth, migraines, arthritic neck and other general insults of aging and reckless youth.
Jeff’s journey towards balanced health started 2010, inspired by his kids. Since then, he’s been on a health and fitness winding road that has involved unequal amounts of experimentation, self-education and of course certification!
In H3H, Jeff primarily focuses on that last H – Health. In working with clients to achieve their health goals, Jeff quickly learned that it’s usually not donuts and soda holding people back – it’s their mindset.
Jeff specializes in helping clients uncover and move past the inner blocks that have led to poor eating and lifestyle choices.
That’s where the life coaching comes in: getting underneath the behaviors to the thoughts and emotions that led to the action.
Once you get to the core of the issues, you can then start to solve them, once and for all.
Jeff is currently:
- Certified Fitness and Nutrition Coach (PN1), Precision Nutrition
- Certified Professional Coach (CPC), iPEC
- Certified Energy Leadership Index Master Practitioner (ELI-MP), iPEC
