Introducing Our Optimus Holistic Coaching Framework ™️
Our holistic coaching framework delves into 6 key pillars which gives you the flexibility you need as a coach to have different approaches for different clients. The framework we teach allows you to tailor your approach to meet the individual needs of your client. This means you have flexibility to explore one, two, three or all of the pillars depending on what the client is wanting to focus on and how they are presenting. This allows for greater depth and means you are well equipped to work with a range of clients at a truly transformational level.

5 Benefits Of Our Optimus Holistic Coaching Framework™
-
Client Centred Focus
We believe the client is at the heart of the coaching relationship. This approach is grounded in flexibility using different approaches to meet the clients needs.
-
Deeper Client Relationships
By providing a supportive environment where clients are valued you're able to go deeper rather than using a transactional model. Empathy and emotional intelligence run through this framework to support clients with deeper insights and learning.
-
Enhanced Client Outcomes
Coaching the whole person goes beyond surface-level issues to uncover underlying beliefs, emotions, and behaviours. This enables clients to gain powerful insights and build new neural pathways rewiring the way they think, feel and act.
-
More Comprehensive Problem Solving
Challenges are often interconnected with deeper personal values, beliefs, or emotional patterns. A whole-person approach uncovers these underlying issues, allowing for well rounded and effective solutions that address the real problem, not just symptoms.
-
Use Of Holistic Tools and Techniques
You'll have flexibility in your approaches by learning a variety of techniques including: Goal setting frameworks, Core values exercises, Coaching for emotions, Emotional intelligence development, Somatic awareness practices, Visioning and visualisations, Mindfulness and meditation, Strengths based coaching, Wellness and self care planning, Positive psychology interventions, Decision making matrixes alongside models and frameworks based in Neuroscience & Coaching Psychology.
