Coaching is an emerging discipline that is continually exploring new
frontiers. An area of particularly fertile ground is cognitive
behavioural therapy (CBT). Developed from behavioural roots by
integrating cognitive models of behaviour, and since developed in a
range of directions to place increased value on individuals' histories,
emotions, and potential, CBT offers a host of interrelated,
evidence-based approaches that draw on psychology and our knowledge of
the brain to help people cope with psychological challenges. Adapting
cutting-edge psychological science to the needs of a coaching audience,
Third Wave Cognitive Behavioural Coaching shows how, by drawing on
techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical
Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Schema Therapy (ST), and more, coaches can
adopt a more holistic approach that takes account of the problem, the
context, and the unique individual. The book is edited by Jonathan
Passmore, who has vast experience as a book author and editor as well as
being a world respected authority on coaching. He is the lead author of
Becoming a Coach and the editor of Succeeding as a Coach.
