We love the broad spectrum of doctors that come through our coaching programme. In this episode, Helen is chatting to Dr Lisa Clift who has a background in Paediatrics and General Practice. Lisa now splits her time between roles as a doctor in adult prisons and children's secure homes, and her work in a private Lifestyle and Obesity Clinic.

Join Helen and Lisa on this episode of the programme as Lisa shares how she came to join our coaching diploma, and how she is utilising her coaching skills now.

Coaching conversations are a great space in which to support individuals in engaging in a spot of meta-cognition; doing a little thinking about their thinking. With a little help, our coachees can explore their potentially unhelpful thinking around a scenario that is proving difficult for them.

There are different ways of approaching such situations and various tools that we can utilise, as coaches, to support our coachee's thinking. One such tool is the ABCDE model, which has its origins in the work of one of the founders of the Cognitive Behavioural Therapy approach, Albert Ellis.

In this episode, we explore the ABCDE model, which allows the coachee to take any given event; consider what beliefs they have about that event; explore what the consequences of their belief and their thinking have, for themself and those around them.

Then, with the help of their coach, the coachee can dispute their own beliefs and reach a better emotional understanding and perspective.

Join us, on this week's podcast, as we take a deep dive into the value and utility of the ABCDE model in the coaching room.

When coachees are facing difficulties in their work or home lives it's easy for them to spend their time in the coaching room in problem-talk. They often speak from a place of helplessness and a lack of resources. Using a strengths based approach can allow a coachee to connect with their own inner resources, and some external resources too, to allow them to think through their situation, find their own solution and move forward.

In this episode we explore what a strengths approach looks like, what tools are useful in drawing out someone's strengths and when it might be useful to engage with this approach.
