Q: A university biomedical researcher is working with a coach to improve their interactions

with colleagues. The client is a very analytical thinker and can easily explain detailed data points

and complex graphs, but seems reluctant share anything personal with the coach. In previous

sessions, the coach encouraged the client to describe how they felt at social events, but the client

seems highly uncomfortable, answering only with short, one-word responses. When the client

arrives to their session today, the client silently hands the coach a journal. The client has written

several, detailed entries over the last week about their experience attending a university

luncheon, a faculty party, and a staff development workshop since their last session. While the

client says little to the coach in the moment, their entries show deep reflections about the anxiety

the client experienced at these events and their desire to overcome social anxiety. What should

the coach do?

What is the BEST action?

- Acknowledge the reflection work the client has done, and ask the client if they feel comfortable

exploring some of the emotions they described in their journal.

- Ask the client if they would summarize the entries they detailed in their journal for the coach.

- Ask the client to identify some steps they can take to overcome the anxieties they wrote about.

- Ask the client what new awareness they developed about themself through the journaling

process.

Answer:

Acknowledge the reflection work the client has done, and ask the client if they feel comfortable

exploring some of the emotions they described in their journal.

Q: A coach recently began working with a client to help them plan for re- tirement. The client is

a well-respected teacher who has taught for 30 years at a local elementary school. The client

consistently arrives highly prepared and organized for coaching sessions, routinely reporting

progress between sessions and identifying specific topics to focus on during coaching conversations. The client shares they are looking forward to retirement, but they

discuss their retirement plans in a very matter-of-fact way. During the current session, the client

shares that they have two weeks left before their retirement begins. They would like to focus on a

few remaining plans they need to make. Suddenly, the client begins to cry and says, "I've spent

half my life at this school! I adore my students and my colleagues are my best friends. I can't

imagine what my life is going to be like when I no longer walk through the front doors of the

school each morning!" What should the coach do?

What is the BEST action?

- Pause for a moment, then ask the client to identify the remaining plans they would like to focus

on today.

- Ask the client if they are sure they want to retire.

- Acknowledge that retirement is a significant life transition and that emotional responses are

normal.

- Pause, then acknowledge the emotional impacts the transition seems to be having on the client,

and ask if they would like to spend some time with those feelings.

Answer:

Pause, then acknowledge the emotional impacts the transition seems to be having on the client,

and ask if they would like to spend some time with those feelings.
