Judith Blank: Coaching Intricate Minds
Consideration is given in this essay to emotionally intense and deep thinking clients. “Regular-length coaching sessions may make them feel like they were only able to ‘scratch the surface.’ Other implications, however, go beyond the how-tos and require a deeper understanding of the complex inner processes of gifted and highly sensitive individuals and their intricate minds.”
Intimate Relationships
While professional coaches are not marital therapists, they need a full appreciation of the complex relationships that play a central role in the life of their clients (as well as in their own life). “What is the nature of enduring love–and how do we find this type of love? “Most books about couples are written by those doing couples therapy and are based on the assumption that successful couples are doing whatever the couples in therapy are not doing. Love Lingers Here is based instead on interviews with more than 70 couples who have been together for many years (averaging 20 plus years together).” This book is available For Free as a digital download.
New Perspectives on Interpersonal Relationships
Richard Lim: Quantum and Caring
This cutting-edge essay concerns the way in which an understanding of quantum science can lead us to consider how all interpersonal relationships are interdependent and interconnected. The process of working with our clients is essentially a deeply relational experience. This can be a big problem if we view ourselves as somehow independent of our coaching client.
We hope you find these essays to be instructive on behalf of your work as a professional coach in our dynamic mid-21st Century world of interpersonal relationships.
