“…to enable participation in the context of the family's daily life" (Foster et al, 2013, p. 254). Coaching is different to traditional therapy in that therapists do not tell the parent or child what to do, but rather help the parent or child to solve problems and find possible solutions, using self-directed learning that enhances the individual's capabilities (Foster et al, 2013). Coaching involves (a) emotional support; (b) information exchange; and (c) a structured learning process involving (i) goal-setting; (ii) exploring options; (iii) planning action; (iv) carrying out plans in real-life environments; (v) checking performance through analysis and reflection; and (vi) generalization (Graham et al, 2010).…”

“…It is recommended that therapy should focus on the expectations of parents (Cohn, Kramer, Schub, & May-Benson, 2014) and that family-focused intervention, with collaborative goal setting, will result in improved outcomes for families (Brewer, Pollock, & Wright, 2014). Foster, Dunn, and Lawson (2013) and Graham, Rodger, and Ziviani (2009) mutually advocate for a parent coaching intervention model instead of direct child-focused intervention. Indirect health service delivery models, like home programs, are typically recommended when the therapist determines that increased repetition, in addition to or in lieu of direct intervention, could benefit the child's therapeutic outcomes (Bundy, Lane, Murray, & Fischer, 2002).…”
