I have just completed the pilot Positive Psychology program with the fabulous Toleen. The course was exceptionally well designed, with psychological theories that were not only relevant but highly applicable to coaching practice. I particularly appreciated the weekly “Tool Box” takeaways, which offered practical strategies we could directly apply with clients. Toleen’s attention to detail meant that most questions were answered before we even needed to ask. The class was well structured, engaging, and grounded in psychological concepts that genuinely enhanced my understanding of positive psychology in coaching. Moreover, Toleen is one of the best lecturers I have ever had. She has surpassed every psychology professor I have learned from, with a teaching style that is clear and engaging. She brings both passion and precision to her work and is truly an asset to LCA. It was noted in our last session that the other students and I were at very different stages in our coaching journeys, yet we agreed that engaging with these skills at an early stage of coaching training was especially beneficial to build a strong, positive foundation from the outset. I thoroughly enjoyed every week in this course (10 weeks), the content, the practical take-away activities, and of course, the brilliant and amazing, Toleen!
