ABSTRACT
This chapter considers what preparation coaches can do specifically for Distinctive Features of Rational Emotive Behavioural Coaching (DF-REBC), and then what preparation coaches can do for problem-focused coaching. It discusses several factors of good mental health and healthy psychological living. Resources are the practical tools or the people present in the lives of coachees that are available to assist them in their coaching, and it is helpful for coachees to develop a list of such resources that may become relevant during coaching. While some coachees prefer to work towards their coaching objectives/goals in a private way, others find it helpful to draw on the support of others who are in their corner. It is useful to find out who serves as a role model for coaches, as they can be referred to for inspiration during the process. The chapter discusses how coaches can help their coachees get the most out of REBC through diligent preparation.
