This is the first book to be published that focuses specifically on the use of the coaching approach and coaching conversations in occupational therapy. It’s the outcome of an international collaboration of over 15 occupational therapists from five continents who have trained in coaching and are using coaching in their occupational therapy practices.
Enabling Positive Change will appeal to practising therapists, students, those interested in teaching coaching for occupational therapy, and it will assist occupational therapy scholars in identifying research questions that need to be asked going forward.

While I have always had an interest in coaching, this book has heightened my awareness as to why I have always found it personally helpful and has also inspired me to look at coaching and coaching training more seriously during the next stage in my journey as an OT"
