What you will learn

Recognise the importance of embodying a client-centred coaching mindset and thriving to become a role model for health/wellness behaviour skills such as prioritising self-care, self-awareness, self-regulation and self-monitoring, while reflecting on and enhancing own coaching practices.

Promote coachee autonomy, self-efficacy and growth by enabling self-determined wellness visions, strengths appreciation, challenge-for-thought and challenge-for-action enquiry, and explorative learning.

Harness the A.S.I.T. Method* to enable personalised and meaningful change and ongoing coachee growth, including Assessment Coaching, Strategy Coaching, Implementation Coaching, and Tracking Coaching, while fostering and endeavouring to protect the coachee’s freedom of choice, self-efficacy, and self-monitoring.

Know how to assist the coachee to evaluate and integrate health and wellness information through leveraging the C.O.R.D. Framework** and health and wellness assessments (including health risk assessments) navigating aspects of health and wellness that the coachee may want to prioritise, optimise or reduce risk for, or any symptom, diagnosed disease or injury they may aim to manage with guidance from their medical provider.

Use relevant Motivational Interviewing (MI) techniques to support intrinsic motivation in the context of the Transtheoretical Model of Change (TTM), including decisional balance tools, rulers, questionnaires (e.g. THSA Parental Modelling Questionnaires™), creative brainstorming drills, safe behavioural experimentation, and self-discovery exercises.

Maintain scope of practice within the boundaries of coaching, distinguishing health risk assessment and wellness evaluations from medical diagnosis, treatment or prescription, and mitigating the risk of harmful health choices or practices through pointing out to adequate resources and appropriate referrals to medical and support professionals.

Develop insight into specialised health and wellness coaching principles and examples across a variety of fields, including stress management, placebo/nocebo effect, sleep management, weight management, eating psychology, emotional eating and emotional self-regulation, gut health, toxicology and detoxification, child and family nutrition, fertility and reproductive health, physical activity, and food allergies and intolerances.

Discern the fundamental principles of evidence-based research, the pyramid of scientific evidence, quality sources which may be utilised in practice when appropriate and within professional boundaries, mitigation of health harm from controversial dietary approaches and the wrongful use of medical diets, and the importance of continuing education.

Gain an awareness and demonstration of ethical practice within coaching, including integrity and honesty, distinction from consulting or other professional support, appropriate and respectful language, empathy and sensitivity to the coachee, and verbal and non-verbal communication underpinning coaching presence.
