Coaching for Health & Well-being: individual and ecological approaches

This module fosters a critical exploration of different coaching approaches to improving physical health, mental health, and enhancing well-being, ranging from “goal oriented” approaches such as CBT, ACT, and solution-focused coaching (e.g., PRACTICE, OSKAR), to more “meaning making” approaches, such as positive, existential and ecological coaching.

Coaching for Ethical Leadership and Organisational Sustainability

It explores insights from research and theories developed in branches of psychology, such as social psychology, occupational psychology, community psychology, psychology of sustainability, and their contributions to a range of approaches in coaching psychology, as well as insights from business development.
