One on One AIP Coaching
The AIP Certified Coach Practitioner Training Program
Consider finding an AIP coach to help guide you through the AIP process and troubleshoot any speed bumps that come up.
The AIP Certified Coach Practitioner Training Program was developed by Sarah Ballantyne of Paleo Mom and Angie Alt and Mickey Trescott of Autoimmune Wellness.
The program was created as a way to train professionals already working in the healthcare and nutrition fields to integrate AIP into their practices.
Here is the practitioner directory if you are interested in searching for an AIP coach near you. Keep in mind, if you don't see a practitioner that is geographically near you, "virtual" is an option in the drop-down box. This way you can still potentially find someone to work with even if they're not local to you.
