Principles of Psychospiritual Coaching- 10 clock hours
Rooted in the psychospiritual model known as InnerView Guidance, this course offers a fresh map for navigating the human interior through the lens of soul-centered inquiry. Often described as positive psychology directed toward the soul’s deepest callings, InnerView Guidance facilitates real alignment among feelings, underlying needs, core values, and life purpose—creating lasting harmony between internal experience and external living. At its core, the work bridges the divide between the external persona and authentic personhood, cultivating within oneself the very qualities one wishes to bring forward into the world while attuning to inner wisdom.
Whether engaged across a single session or an extended coaching engagement, this transformative process guides individuals from:
-
current circumstances toward a chosen, preferred way of being
-
unconscious behavioral loops toward conscious, sovereign choices
-
peripheral distractions toward what carries genuine meaning
-
carrying external baggage toward claiming personal responsibility and truth
-
lingering over past injuries toward actively authoring new chapters
-
shedding what no longer serves toward bringing the soul’s vision to life
Participants will learn to see the whole person before identifying the problem, moving beyond symptom-centered coaching. The curriculum unpacks the 4Fold Path—a multidimensional framework for understanding the psychospiritual makeup of clients—and sharpens relational attunement skills within coaching dialogues. Versatile by design, the InnerView Guidance framework adapts seamlessly to faith-based, multi-faith, and secular/spiritual contexts, with practical application demonstrated throughout using illustrative case studies.
