Coaching Skills

About

Led by Helen K Cyrus (Qualified Life Coach & NLP Practitioner), this interactive course explores basic coaching skills and how they can be used to support recovery and wellbeing within health and social care. It emphasises personal choice, responsibility, and self-management, helping to build self-awareness, confidence, and effective communication.

The course combines taught input with group activities and practical role play, where participants take turns as coach, client, and observer. This provides hands-on experience of the coaching approach. A strong focus is placed on reflection, enabling participants to explore their own strengths, leadership skills, and development needs, and begin applying coaching techniques within their professional roles. This course is delivered by [Coaching for Recovery].
