emphasizing human service values and connecting to person-centered practice

Foundational to effective human services are the values of respect, inclusiveness, and supporting client autonomy. Our Coach Approach training puts these values at the very center. We have dedicated our careers to fostering these values in ourselves and the organizations we support.

CAP’s Person Centered Coaching workshop helps people to be heard and to feel significant! The two day workshop packs in powerful tools to support self-advocacy, listening skills and the importance of presence. By using the Coaching tools; I watched someone we support blossom by empowering themselves on goals they have planned for their life. I truly enjoyed my experience! I highly recommend this workshop.

What can I say about The Coach Approach other than life-changing! Immediately after attending my first Coach Approach session, I knew that this training needed to be at the core of the early childhood systems shift to utilizing a coaching mindset. The skills discussed and practiced during the Coach Approach sessions are not solely focused on who you want to be at work but who you want to be in life. The feedback that we continue to receive from participants is that the training has impacts beyond the workplace. How often can you say a training event allowed you to reflect on how you want to show up in life for others?

AMAZING!

Coach Approach Partners’ Person Centered Coaching Workshop is the real deal. Our agency has used the tools and skills provided by this workshop to infuse the philosophy of Person Centered into our programs. It provides our staff with a true understanding of providing supports so that we can advocate, encourage, and promote the power of personal choice for the person’s that we support. The most beautiful thing about this workshop is that it can be applied to both work and personal life, making the material relatable and easy to absorb.

I cannot say enough how impactful the training has been...We discuss coaching stories every day in our huddle and my staff have been amazed to see how well this works with our clients.

The feedback I got was that people feel like they have a clearer vision for the future and where we are going. The trainings have been bigger than the skill set of coaching, they have been about casting a vision that everyone can run with, and I received so much from participating in the training.

The information definitely reached a deeper place in me and I find myself asking much better questions than I was able to before.
