This disclaimer is prominently included in our website footer and applies to all content, communications, coaching sessions, downloads, and forms related to Kate Berce Coaching. We provide educational wellness information and coaching for U.S.-based adult women, and we are NOT licensed medical or mental health providers. The purpose of this disclaimer is to clarify the nature of our services and to limit any legal liability by delineating what we do and do not do. Please read this document carefully and consult appropriate professionals for any medical or mental health concerns.
Not Medical or Mental Health Advice: All content and information on this website (including blog articles, emails, coaching advice, videos, and downloadable materials) is for educational and informational purposes only. Nothing on this site or through our communications is intended to be, nor should it be taken as, medical advice, mental health advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Kate Berce is not a medical doctor, nurse, psychiatrist, psychologist, or licensed therapist, and does not provide health care or medical services in any capacity. We do not diagnose conditions, prescribe medications or supplements, nor treat or cure any physical or mental illness. Likewise, any spiritual guidance offered is not professional religious or pastoral advice. Always seek the advice of a licensed physician or mental health professional for any health-related questions or concerns. Do not disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of information from this website. Never start or stop any medication, supplement, or treatment without consulting your physician. If you suspect you have a medical issue or mental health condition, promptly contact a qualified health care provider.
No Therapeutic or Client-Provider Relationship: Use of this website or communication with Kate Berce Coaching does not establish a patient-doctor or therapist-client relationship. Engaging with our educational content or coaching does not mean we are providing individualized healthcare, and it does not substitute for a personal consultation with a licensed professional. Coaching is by nature a client-driven educational service; it is not therapy or medical treatment. Any decisions you make regarding your health and lifestyle are your own responsibility, and you agree that our role is to provide supportive coaching and information – the implementation and results are up to you.
Consult Your Physician and Healthcare Providers: All suggestions, recommendations, or insights provided through Kate Berce Coaching are intended to support your wellness journey but are not prescriptions or directives. We strongly advise you to consult with your physician or appropriate healthcare provider before making any health changes, especially if you have an existing condition, are on any medication, or are pregnant or nursing. For example, you should talk with your doctor before implementing dietary changes, exercise routines, detoxes, herbal supplements, fertility or prenatal advice, or any other lifestyle change mentioned in our content. Do not ignore or delay seeking medical advice due to information from us. If you experience any adverse symptom or uncertainty about your health, seek medical attention immediately.

By continuing to use our site and services, you accept full responsibility for your choices, actions, and results now and in the future. We emphasize that individual results will vary; every woman’s body and situation is unique. No guarantees are made regarding outcomes from our coaching or educational materials. Your success in reaching wellness goals depends on many factors beyond our control, including your effort, commitment, and genetic or environmental factors. You acknowledge that Kate Berce Coaching cannot and does not promise any specific results and will not be liable for the outcome of actions you take based on our guidance.

No Warranties; Limitation of Liability: Kate Berce Coaching makes no warranties or representations that the information on this site is accurate, complete, or suitable for any purpose. Although we strive to provide useful and up-to-date information, we assume no liability for errors or omissions in the content.

Not a Licensed Medical Provider (Colorado & California Disclosures): Kate Berce operates as an unlicensed holistic health coach under the “health freedom” laws of Colorado and California. This means that while we provide complementary wellness services, we are not licensed by the state as a health care professional (terraessentials.net). We are not licensed physicians and our services are not regulated by state licensing boards. Under California’s Senate Bill 577 and Colorado’s Natural Health guidelines, we have a duty to inform you of our credentials and limits: Our coaching services consist of nutritional and lifestyle education, habit support, ancestral health guidance, and spiritual wellness mentoring. We do not prescribe or administer prescription drugs or medical treatments, do not diagnose or treat medical conditions, and will refer you to medical professionals if needed (terraessentials.net). We have completed training and certification in health coaching (e.g. ancestral health coaching principles) and continually educate ourselves to better support clients. (More details about Kate’s education and experience can be provided upon request.) By engaging in our coaching, you acknowledge this explicit disclosure that we are unlicensed in the medical field and you accept our services on that basis. (California law requires this acknowledgment, and a signed consent will be obtained in our Client Agreement.)
