Integrative Wellness Coaching A Handbook for Therapists and Counsellors

By presenting a holistic and integrated health and wellbeing approach to personalised care through wellness coaching, this handbook provides theory, insights, best practice, case studies and CPD activities in order to deepen practitioners' knowledge and experience. Integrative wellness is about working in collaboration and is a partnership between the professional and the patient with the latter understanding that they can take as much control as is possible for their own health and wellbeing. This book helps form this collaboration by exploring the co-creation of personalised care plans, effective coaching skills and cognitive-behavioural interventions including motivational coaching for patient activation, as well as flexible ways to provide wellness coaching. Exploring how the mind-body connection can improve the patient's journey, Integrative Wellness Coaching is an invaluable guide for any healthcare practitioner who wants to embrace their patients' lifestyle choices and mindsets towards their own health.
