Filling the post-rehab gap
Cardiac rehab ends at 8–12 weeks. Most patients receive no structured long-term lifestyle support after. That's exactly where Sahira begins.

About Sahira
Clinically trained.
Coaching certified.
"Most patients leave cardiac rehab with no long-term support. I built this practice to bridge that gap — one client at a time."

As a Cardiology RN with 20+ years at the bedside, Sahira has watched patients struggle not with understanding their diagnosis, but with the daily reality of changing how they live — the stress, the diet, the "what do I do now" after rehab ends.

Her NBC-HWC certification pairs clinical depth with behavior change science — motivational interviewing, habit formation, and real-world implementation support that goes far beyond what a 15-minute cardiology appointment can offer.

1
Cardiology clinical depth
Fluent in cardiac physiology, risk factors, and your cardiologist's language — a rare trust-builder.
2
Functional nutrition + whole-person lens
Root causes — stress, inflammation, sleep, metabolic health. Not just "eat better and move more."
3
NBC-HWC behavior change expertise
Trained in motivational interviewing and habit formation. You're never left to figure it out alone.
4
Post-rehab specialist
Cardiac rehab ends at 8–12 weeks. The hardest lifestyle work begins after. That's her specialty.

Client Stories
Real outcomes, real people

Representative experiences. Individual results vary based on health status, commitment, and physician-guided care.

"After my heart attack I left the hospital completely overwhelmed. Sahira helped me understand what to eat, how to move safely, and how to actually talk to my doctor. My cardiologist has noticed the difference."
Robert M., 62
Post-MI · 8 months in HeartStrong
"I finished cardiac rehab feeling abandoned. Sahira gave me the long-term support I desperately needed. A year later my numbers have never been better."
Sandra K., 55

Common Questions
Frequently asked questions
No. Cardiac rehab is a physician-supervised clinical program typically lasting 8–12 weeks. Cardiac Wellness Coaching begins where rehab ends — providing long-term lifestyle support, habit coaching, and accountability that most patients never receive after rehab is complete.
You don't need a formal referral to get started. However, all clients are required to have an active physician relationship and written physician clearance before beginning any coaching program. Sahira will help facilitate this process and communicate directly with your care team.
We provide itemized superbills with CPT codes (0591T–0593T) for all sessions. HSA and FSA reimbursement is available when services are prescribed by your physician. Some Medicare Advantage and private plans are beginning to cover health coaching. Contact us and we'll help verify your benefits.
Both options are available. Virtual sessions are via a HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform, making it easy to meet from anywhere. In-person sessions available at [your location]. Most clients find virtual just as effective — and far more convenient for weekly sessions.
Health coaching is wellness-focused support — not medical care. Sahira will never diagnose, treat, prescribe, or give clinical recommendations. She helps you implement the lifestyle guidance your physician has already given you, with expert accountability and the knowledge only a Cardiology RN can bring.
All scheduling, intake forms, waivers, and billing are handled through PracticeBetter — a HIPAA-compliant health coaching platform. You'll complete your intake forms, sign your coaching agreement, and book sessions all in one secure portal. Superbills are generated automatically for insurance/HSA/FSA submissions.
