John Farinelli, NBC-HWC
San Francisco

I partner with patients to help clarify their desired health outcomes and co-create an achievable action plan that leverages their unique strengths and motivation in order to achieve their goals. I work to empower individuals not only to make change in the immediate future but to develop the skills and confidence to identify goals and overcome obstacles beyond our time together. I’ve been drawn to this work through navigating my own journey with mental and physical health struggles. I’m passionate about my work because I’ve seen first-hand the positive impact that collaborative care and making lifestyle/behavioral changes can have.

How I stay healthy and happy
Hiking or going on runs with my dog, time with friends and family, carpentry/building projects, experimenting in the kitchen, listening to audiobooks, going to the gym, drawing, playing around on guitar and piano.
